Set back from the road behind a hedged frontage and private driveway is this handsome Victorian home forming part of the attractive tree lined street scene of Leckhampton Road.
A light and bright reception hall opens up to a wonderful double reception room arranged as an elegant sitting room with period style fireplace and shuttered, wide bay window to the front and spacious dining room with painted floor to ceiling storage cupboards to both recesses and window with views over the garden.
This traditional part of the house blends beautifully with the more contemporary family room with half shuttered window to the front, fitted corner storage and modern styling that opens up directly in to the stylish kitchen, creating a seamless entertaining area with access directly out to the garden.
The kitchen extension is an extremely attractive space fitted with modern units, central island for relaxed dining and integrated appliances with floor to ceiling glass sliding doors to both elevations opening out to the part walled garden and large patio terrace and very much bringing the outside in for perfect al fresco living.
An enclosed staircase leads to an extremely useful lower ground floor room, perfect as a playroom/study or cinema room or simply for an excellent storage space.
The house has a wonderful flow of living space and bedroom space, well balanced and superbly proportioned as Victorian homes are renowned for. On the first floor are four bedrooms served by an en-suite to bedroom one at the front and a good sized family bathroom with separate shower.
On the top floor, reached via a bespoke open tread staircase is a stunning room styled as a penthouse loft with a wide glazed elevation taking in far reach reaching views across to the Leckhampton escarpment. This exceptional room features bespoke fitted storage and wardrobes, an open-plan bathroom area fitted with a stunning suite with roll-top bath and walk in shower, stone tiles and underfloor heating. This is a truly luxurious space rarely found in Victorian homes and is a stand out feature that adds further to the appeal of this wonderful family home.
Outside
To the front of the house is a private driveway that leads to a single garage. To the rear is a generous town garden enclosed by a high red brick walled boundary and fenced boundary and enjoys an excellent level of privacy for a town property. Immediately outside the kitchen is a large ‘U’ shaped patio, leading on to the level lawn which benefits from rear access on to Langdon Road.
Agent’s note
A planning consent was previously granted (now lapsed) for a single storey dwelling in the rear garden and is worth of note for anyone looking to create a guest annexe or to build an investment property as a rental investment.
