Unmodernised, semi-detached Victorian house in Larkhall.
A wonderful opportunity to modernise an attractive four bedroom unlisted Victorian family home in Larkhall.
Hawthorne Villa is a semi-detached house with a great deal of charm. Many of its original features are still intact, providing a fabulous opportunity for an incoming purchaser to create a wonderful family home.
The house is approached via a winding path to the front door and opens into a large entrance hall with tall ceilings and original cornicing. The hall is flanked by two large reception rooms. The drawing room has large proportions, stripped wooden floors, fireplace and an attractive bay window overlooking the front garden. Adjacent to this is an addition on the side of the house which is currently utilised as a workshop. Across the entrance hall is a generous sitting room with a sash window and original cornicing. To the rear of the property is a large family kitchen with tall ceilings, stripped wooden floors, a sash window overlooking the rear garden and an original fireplace with wood burning stove. The kitchen has a separate pantry and access to the utility room with a door to the rear garden and a downstairs bathroom.
The wide staircase leads to a half landing with separate WC and further steps up to a large open landing, providing access to four generous bedrooms and a family bathroom. Three of the bedrooms have particularly generous proportions, attractive original cornicing and architraves. Bedroom one and two have spectacular views across the city towards Prior Park and bedrooms three and four overlook the rear garden.
Outside
The front garden is particularly pretty with mature and attractive shrubs and borders along the pathway to the front door. A well-established wisteria is trained along the front façade. There is side access to the rear garden around the more recently added workshop. The garden is largely laid to lawn with mature hedging at the rear, providing screening to a separate section of garden with a large store.
