House For Sale £350,000
A charming Victorian house enjoying spectacular views across parkland, with three good-size bedrooms, two bathrooms and the largest garden in this Grade II listed terrace. It's hard to believe this property is in the centre of Newbury with such an idyllic location. With hints of Gothic and Italiante revival, the house is well-maintained and retains many of its original features such as fireplaces, chimney breasts, exposed floorboards and beautiful True Arch windows. The property offers good living space through a bright and airy sitting room that boasts a fireplace fitted with a stove, and through to the kitchen/diner that features a chimney breast space for a range cooker, plus a sympathetic blend of vintage and modern cabinetry. There are also two large storage cupboards. A rear lobby connects the kitchen with the rear garden and gives access to the ground-floor bathroom. The bathroom has been updated in a period style that includes a roll-top freestanding bath. Upstairs and on the first floor is the main bedroom with matching True Arch windows and wardrobes built-in either side of the fireplace. Across the landing is a third bedroom that also has a built-in wardrobe beside the chimney breast, and a shower room with a WC and basin. On the top floor is another really good size double bedroom with a roof window and plenty of eaves storage. The property benefits from gas central heating and is particularly well-decorated throughout. Outside, the front is approached by a chequered tile footpath with a mixture of flowerbeds surrounded by paving and enclosed by a brick wall across the front. Gated side access leads to the enclosed side and rear gardens of lawn, paved footpath and flowerbed borders. The side area is mainly laid to shingle and used for barbequing and where the owners keep their shed. Preliminary planning permission has been granted for the extension of the ground floor. The seller currently pays approx. £70 per annum for two parking permits to park in Pelican Lane car park (4min walk via Google maps).
