About this property

  • 8 St Luke's Road is a beautifully proportioned, linked semi-detached Victorian house with accommodation arranged over three floors as well as a useful cellar.

    During the current ownership, the property has benefitted from a program of upgrades and maintenance, whilst carefully retaining its elegant period features. These include a new Worcester 35kW combination boiler, Stelrad radiators, and new wiring and plumbing.

    The porch (with an original stained glass door and panelling in the entrance hall) has been retained, a marble fireplace with a newly installed Stovax wood burning stove and slate hearth in the sitting room, with two further distinctive tiled and cast iron Victorian fireplaces in the bedrooms.

    There are three principal reception rooms on the ground floor and a kitchen with French doors opening onto the rear garden. This is a typical arrangement for houses of this period, providing formal and informal reception and dining spaces. This configuration also offers great potential to create an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living room whilst maintaining a separate sitting room.

    The first floor has three double bedrooms, a study/nursery and a family bathroom. There is a further staircase leading up to the second floor that provides another double bedroom and bathroom. There is also extensive and incredibly useful storage under the eaves.

    Outside
    At the front of the property is a pretty front garden which has paths to both the front door and side of the property, providing convenient additional access to the rear garden. This landscaped garden has an area of lawn with mature shrubs and raised flower beds with stonewalling, trellis fencing, and a pond.
