About this property

  • 31a Queen's Crescent is a delightful double upper Victorian home set over two floors, with access to gated communal gardens.

    The property benefits from both south and north aspects allowing for plenty of natural light throughout the day. The property retains much of its original charm with a variety of period features throughout alongside modern neutral decor.

    Entering the property through the shared vestibule entrance, this property benefits from a ground floor entrance hallway complete with large store cupboard.

    The first floor houses the main living space including a spacious lounge with stunning bay windows. To the rear the extensive open plan kitchen and dining area with south facing windows is a bright and airy place to entertain or enjoy with family. Rounding out the floor there is a modern family bathroom, and the fourth double bedroom come study which offers flexibility to suit individual needs.

    The second floor houses three double bedrooms accessed from the upper hallway, which also provides built-in hanging storage. The southernmost bedroom is generous and bright with an en-suite bathroom with bath. The other two bedrooms also have good proportions and benefit from south facing windows that maximise light. There is also discrete access to the eaves for further storage.

    Externally, owners can enjoy access to two exclusive communal gardens. The house has direct gated access to Waverley Gardens within the middle of the crescent, as well as gated access to Ventor Terrace Gardens a short walk away, with a low annual payment to cover maintenance of these gardens.

I love the feeling of space and abundance of natural light in this property. It is a charming building and street and having such accessible green space is a huge benefit as we head into the warmer months.
