A four bedroom single storey house with garden, garage, and off-street parking
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a period house built on a single storey in a prime location. The property could suit a variety of buyers, from families to those downsizing from a larger home in the area. The accommodation flows well in its current configuration, but there is significant potential to adapt and enhance the house, subject to the usual planning consents. The central entrance hall gives an immediate sense of the scale and proportions of the house. To the right of the hall is a bright reception room, currently used as an office. Further living space is found at the rear of the house in the form of a sitting room, which leads to the garden room. From here, there is access to the terrace and garden. Connecting from both the office and the sitting room are two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is at the front of the house, with a fourth double bedroom adjacent. The large open-plan kitchen/breakfast room is at the rear, with direct access outside and connecting to the garden room, making it ideal for entertaining and everyday living. There is a family bathroom with a separate bath and shower unit, as well as a separate WC by the back door. Accessed outside is a conservatory which doubles as the utility room/laundry.Outside, there is a fantastic west-facing garden with a large lawn and patio areas for outdoor dining. The lawn is surrounded by mature borders and trees. There is a workshop and store to the side of the property, as well as a large garage.Features include:• A rare, period, single-storey house• Lateral living space• Beautiful period details• Large private garden• Prime location near many of the city's top schools• Garage and off-street parking
