Description
Set in the heart of Burnside, this truly substantial Victorian semi-detached residence exudes character and versatility, boasting seven flexible and an abundance of original period charm. This cherished family home has been lovingly cared for by the same owners for the past three decades. Throughout this time, numerous enhancements have been made, including a recently fitted kitchen, a full electrical rewire, re plastering works, and some newly laid floor coverings. The house is equipped with modern comforts such as double glazing and efficient gas-fired central heating via a Potterton combination boiler. The exterior has also received a refreshing facelift, with the rear facades having been re-rendered in recent years.
As you step inside, you are welcomed by an entrance vestibule that leads into a spacious and inviting reception hallway, complete with convenient under-stair storage, a staircase ascending to the upper level and access to a well-appointed shower room. The ground floor features an elegant formal lounge at the front, adorned with a marble fireplace as its centrepiece and a generous bay window overlooking the front garden. To the rear, there is a cosy family or sitting room, as well as a formal dining room that connects seamlessly to the adjacent kitchen, offering direct access to the expansive rear garden.
Moving to the upper level, a large reception hallway provides access to a two-piece WC, a well-appointed three-piece family bathroom, and four impressive bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a highlight, featuring a broad bay window with views to the front.
