A 1930’s detached family house in this prestigious road offering exciting enhancement prospects
Description
A detached family house of generous scale and character. Constructed from brick elevations under a pitched and tiled roof and with traditional timber casement windows, the property provides an exciting opportunity to create your own bespoke space. Sitting on 0.44 acres, there is plenty of external space for changes or additions, subject to the necessary planning consents.
Requiring modernisation, this two storey family home is centred around a generous reception hall with a galleried landing above. There are three principal rooms; the drawing room is triple aspect with an attractive sweeping bay and window seat. This includes a Clay gate fireplace as a focal point. There is a sitting room, also triple aspect which features an Edwardian fireplace in addition to a half glazed door to the entrance porch. The dining room sits to the rear of the house and is close to the kitchen/breakfast room. This is open plan, triple aspect with an open range and wall and base units. An island is also included with an original dresser and a replacement door provides direct access to the garden. The utility houses the boiler and has plumbing for the white goods. There is a further WC, door to the front elevation and access to the attached garage which also has scope for a workshop area. There are five bedrooms on the first floor enjoying varying views and orientations and these are served by the family bathroom and separate WC. There remains plenty of opportunity to reconfigure should one wish.
Outside and to the front, there is a drive culminating in parking and turning with access to a garage with an up and over door. The front garden has central steps leading up to a lawned area with extensive planting around the periphery which provides excellent privacy. There is a rockery border and various shrubberies. The rear garden is lawned, enjoys a westerly orientation, is bounded by fencing and evergreen borders with post and rail fence delineating the curtilage.
