A stunning late Victorian home with a host of period features. Benefiting from a sizable wide plot allowing scope for further extension if desired and subject to the usual planning conditions. Extensively renovated during recent years.
An exceptional home and a lovely example of a late Victorian semidetached which has been painstakingly modernised to retain popular period features but also reconfigured to embrace contemporary living choices.
The open plan kitchen and living area which opens to the garden and is position to the rear is a perfect example of how the different periods have merged.
Characteristics such as high ceilings, large windows deep skirting boards and original doors with chunky architraves will no doubt resonate with those with a love for this style of property.
An elegant hallway provides access to both the individual living room to the front and the open plan space to the rear. Practical characteristics such as a separate utility and downstairs WC help the property achieve a family friendly layout. To the first floor there are three double bedrooms two of which are served by ensuite shower rooms together with a further separate bathroom. The property also benefits from underfloor heating throughout.
As it stands, the exterior has been designed to include a number of distinct zones and there is also a detached garage and separate workshop. These buildings offer great scope for conversion and would be ideal as a home office for example.
It is also important to know that the plot is wide, and this should offer a scope for further extension if desired (subject to the usual consent).
