About this property

  • 170 Wellesley Avenue South is an attractive architecturally designed family home set in an elevated position, built into the hillside. Originally built in 1954, this home has been thoughtfully expanded over the years, evolving into the spacious home it is today.

    As you approach the entrance, steps lead up to the front door. Upon entering, you are greeted by a stunning entrance hall featuring a stained glass window and exquisite parquet flooring. This leads into a spacious living room, complete with a fireplace and a bay window that floods the room with natural light. Adjacent to this is the dining room, which also boasts a fireplace, creating a warm and inviting space for family gatherings.

    The kitchen is equipped with integrated Neff appliances and a Zip tap that provides instant boiling and cold water. The breakfast area, with its striking floor-to-ceiling window, offers picturesque views of the garden and fills the space with light. From the breakfast area, a conservatory connects to the living room and provides direct access to the garden. The ground floor also features a convenient shower room and a utility area, adding to the home's practicality.

    The first floor is home to the principal bedroom, which offers double aspect views and a luxurious steam shower. Bedroom two overlooks the front of the property, while bedroom three features a charming vaulted ceiling, adding a touch of character. A family bathroom serves the first floor, equipped with modern amenities. The loft was converted in 1994 creating the fourth bedroom.

    Outside, a driveway leads up to the garage, offering parking for several cars. The mature front garden includes a path leading to the front door, while the garage provides direct access into the main house. The rear of the property features a delightful southeast facing terraced garden with a wildlife pond, vibrant herbaceous flower beds, and shrubs. A Pink York Stone patio area is perfect for enjoying the afternoon and evening sun. Additionally, the property includes the original coal bunker, now used for storage, and benefits from solar panels, enhancing its sustainability.

I was most impressed by the beautiful terrace garden. There are many points of interest including a wildlife pond and wildflower garden.
