A deceptive four bedroom house originally constructed in 1912 containing many period features in contrast to a contemporary second floor bedroom suite. Located in a city centre cul-de-sac within a few hundred metres of the railway station and the highly regarded KEGS and CCHS schools.

The rooms have high ceilings and are well proportioned with a comfortable feel and décor in keeping with the period of the house. The ground floor includes an attractive hall approached through an original entrance door; the hall features an authentic dog-leg style staircase with flat balusters. At the front of the house is a home office and on the opposite side of the hall is a sitting room which features a beautiful period marble fire surround. Behind this room at the centre of the house is a cosy snug, again featuring a period fire surround. Glazed doors open into an orangery-style breakfast room which has access out to the garden and an opening into the kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with Shaker-style units and finished in an 'on trend' period tone. The worktops incorporate a peninsular breakfast area. Adjacent is a utility room and cloakroom. There is a further reception room featuring a stunning wine store which spans the whole wall.

On the first floor there is a beautiful stained glass window as you approach the three bedrooms with an addition room below the principal suite which could make for a nursery. Each of the bedrooms have high ceilings and large windows, and at the rear of the house is an elegant family bathroom. Pride of place is given to the beautifully designed principal bedroom suite on the second floor. The stairs are retained by glass balustrade and rise to a bedroom, shower and dressing area. The room also features a fold-out balcony.
