16 Adams Road is a mid-Century modern detached property constructed around 1960 of brick elevations and tall windows, (some now double glazed) beneath a flat roof. The property is accessed via a long private shared gravelled driveway with number 15 and backs onto Adams Road Wildlife Sanctuary and Ghost Island.

The house, which is largely in original condition, extends to approximately 2,050 sq ft and has a detached 371 sq ft studio/bedsitting annex situated in the garden. The property, which would now benefit from refurbishment which might also include an extension program or indeed redevelopment, subject to the necessary consents being granted has well planned accommodation over ground and first floors. The principal rooms all overlook the fabulous gardens and have a superb leafy outlook including the main drawing room which has a dual aspect and two pairs of glazed double doors together with extensive book shelving. The adjacent family room has oak herringbone flooring whilst the kitchen also has a dual aspect, basic cabinetry and fittings along with shelved pantry/larder. In addition, there is an entrance hallway and cloakroom which complete the ground floor.

There is a galleried landing at first floor along with a glazed lantern providing light, from which are four or five bedrooms. The main bedroom suite is over 24' in length and extensively glazed and has an en suite bath/shower room with deep enamel bath, mosaic tiled floor and original 1960's wall tiling and an adjacent dressing room. This latter room could also be used as a fifth bedroom, the remaining bedrooms are all doubles and have great views over the gardens or the long driveway leading from Adams Road. A family bathroom completes the first floor accommodation.

The annex/studio is detached and constructed of mainly grey engineering brick with lots of glazing to the gardens. Extending to 371 sq ft, this building has a bed/sitting room with 'concealed' pull down double bed, kitchenette with twin sinks and a separate bathroom. This space might well lend itself to accommodate a children's nanny or could provide an additional income / become a teenagers' den or indeed a superb home office/consulting room. The gardens are a particular feature and lie adjacent to neighbours gardens and Ghost Island /Wildlife Sanctuary. Mostly laid to extensive lawn, wrapping around three sides of the house , the gardens are enclosed by mature hedgerow and shrubbery with a number of tall specimen trees along with a belt of trees to the southern boundary. There are deep well planted flower and shrub beds along with a gated entrance to the front, a deep and wide paved terrace adjacent to the reception rooms and a large compost/area with ample space for sheds and garden tools/equipment etc tucked away in one corner. There is a brick built garage with automated roller door and two adjoining brick stores.

In all about 0.53 of an acre.
