THE PROPERTY
Having been thoughtfully upgraded and improved in recent years, the interior feel is a mix of classic, modern and homely. Generous ‘double’ reception rooms remain but now feature replacement hardwood double glazing and a wood burning stove. A tall bay window in the living room enjoys a wonderful aspect over the park, lush with trees shrubs and palms. Bespoke joiner-made solid wood kitchen units finished with granite worksurfaces complement the gas fired AGA in the kitchen/breakfast room. Further on, a utility/boot room leads to a ground floor cloakroom/WC. The first floor is equally spacious and briefly comprises 3 double bedrooms, a single bedroom and 2 bath/shower rooms. The principal bedroom is especially impressive with another tall bay window overlooking the park. The bath/shower rooms have also been tastefully re-appointed in recent years.
A remarkable number of Victorian features still remain including tessellated tiling in the entrance hall, fireplaces in the living areas and two bedrooms, high ceilings, picture and dado rails, architraves, high skirtings, stained glass and panelled timber doors and the staircase with handrail.
A slightly raised front garden provides an attractive approach to the house, with well stocked flower beds and palm trees providing a lovely spot to sit and look across 'leafy' Kimberley Park opposite. To the rear, a delightfully private rear courtyard catches sun in the middle of the day with steps rising to an upper garden level featuring double doors leading from one of the first floor bedrooms. This upper rear garden catches sun throughout the day and enjoys pedestrian access to Park Lane beyond with the possibility of producing off street parking or building a garage (subject to consents). Note - both neighbouring houses have garages.
