Great care and attention was taken in the restoration of key features including the reinstating of high quality solid plaster cornicing and ceiling roses in the bedrooms. There are brand new carpets and wooden flooring in the living room and brand new carpets and wood flooring throughout. The contemporary elements in this period home are further apparent in the use of technology, with a Nest Home system implemented for heating control and smoke alarm system, allowing the owner to control heating from a mobile phone and provide monthly feedback on usage.
An entrance hallway with glazed inner door and wooden flooring lead to the principal reception rooms. The lounge overlooks the front elevation and features include useful storage and a contemporary fire surround with mirrored centre on a solid slate hearth. Beyond this room is the staircase and dining room with an impressive York Range, shelving and cupboards with stripped pine doors painted white. The modern kitchen includes matching base and wall units, integrated fridge freezer, top of the range Neff induction hob, Neff oven with slide away door, Neff dishwasher and black gloss metro tiles. The garden room at the rear provides wonderful views over the long lawn garden.
The bedrooms are arranged over two floors. The first floor houses the three original bedrooms and family bathroom in addition to a recently installed walk in wardrobe off the landing, with automatic lighting. A fourth bedroom occupies the entirety of the top floor.
Externally, a fabulous 75″ family garden laid mainly to lawn with established trees and shrubs give this garden a tranquil feel, rare for a property so close to the city centre. The south-easterly aspect creates a wonderful suntrap, especially in the early evenings. To the side is a gated access from Abbey Street. There is also an 18′ x 9′ garage and lean to storage space, which also provides 20′ x 18′ off street parking area accessed from Clifton Green down a private access country lane.
