House For Sale £450,000
A most attractive detached period residence located on a much sought after private road within a conservation area. The Villas comprises a unique collection of individual Victorian residences built circa 1855 in an Italianate style designed by renowned architect Charles Lynam. The current owners of the house have completed an extensive renovation in recent years with great sympathy for the character of the house whilst incorporating many of the features expected in a modern family home. A beautiful modern family kitchen with central island unit is a standout feature of the ground floor accommodation with double doors opening out to an outside entertaining space complete with brick built pizza oven and barbecue. Externally development of the Coach House provides supplementary accommodation with independent central heating currently used as a gym and garden room but providing a versatile space which could lend itself to a number of different uses. The south facing Victorian walled garden to the rear is well stocked with a variety of specimen shrubs and trees and has been beautifully maintained by the owners. This unique character property is well worth an internal inspection.
