A beautifully presented three bed Victorian home in the sought after De Freville area.
32 Humberstone Road is a mid-terrace Victorian townhouse set back behind a dwarf wall with both wrought iron railings and gate. A tiled chequered path with rope borders leads to the glazed and panelled front door with a stained glass window above. This opens into a vestibule and in turn leads through to a wide hallway with wooden floors, panelled doors and picture rails.
To the right is an exceptional drawing room with a bay window with plantation shutters and stained glass windows above. This lovely room is further enhanced with picture rails, ornate cornicing and a wood burner inset into the fireplace.
Beyond the stairs is a further living room which is currently used as a study with understairs storage and a large oversized door which leads out to a gorgeous Mediterranean-style courtyard which interlinks with the kitchen. Through the back of the house, past the well-appointed utility room and downstairs WC, the hall leads to a magnificent vaulted, German-made kitchen with underfloor heating. This exceptional room is bathed in natural light provided through three roof lights and large sliding doors at the back of the house. There is ample space for a breakfast table and chairs, plenty of built-in storage and various appliances including a Siemens hob, Liebherr built-in fridge and large freezer with integrated ice maker, Neff combi oven and separate combi steam oven with a warming drawer. The attention to detail is exceptional throughout the house but typified by large porcelain tiles flowing seamlessly through the kitchen and out onto the patio.
To the first floor and on the left is a well-appointed family bathroom with freestanding Mode bath and a walk-in shower. To the front is the main bedroom with extensive wardrobes and an en suite shower room with white Mode sanitaryware and attractive feature wall. To the second floor the bedroom at the back of the house has an unexpectedly large picture window with far reaching views across the cityscape. A further bedroom with an en suite WC completes this floor.
Outside, to the rear the south facing garden is mainly laid to lawn interspersed with mature shrubs and perennials. There is pedestrian access to the rear. The property benefits from PV solar panels.
