About this property
Description
A charming and versatile semi-detached family residence nestled on a highly sought-after Parkside road near Palewell Common. This delightful home exudes character and charm, seamlessly blending original arts & crafts period features with modern touches and thoughtful design to create a truly welcoming long-term family home.
The property boasts a generous, thoughtfully extended ground floor, complemented by a stylish loft conversion, offering an incredibly flexible living layout suited to modern family life. Original features such as high ceilings, wood flooring, fireplaces, and timber-framed double-glazed windows add warmth and character throughout.
The welcoming porch leads into a spacious hallway with ample storage, setting the tone for a home filled with charm. To the front, a bay-fronted lounge with a cozy working open fireplace provides a perfect retreat. The heart of the home is the beautifully remodelled, open-plan reception, kitchen, and dining area, a truly versatile space that can adapt to your family's needs. The sitting area offers a relaxing spot to unwind, while the dining space, with bifold doors opening onto the garden, creates a seamless indoor-outdoor flow perfect for entertaining. The traditional-style kitchen features a large open pass-through with a bi-folding window, ideal for summer gatherings, barbecues, and al fresco dining.
Additional flexible spaces include a converted garage that now serves as a guest bedroom, office, or playroom, and a contemporary walk-in shower room with a vaulted ceiling, adding a touch of modern elegance. A large utility and laundry room with custom storage, pressurised water tank, and French doors to the garden further enhance functionality.
Upstairs, the light-filled landing leads to a principal bedroom with a fireplace and built-in wardrobes, a second double bedroom with a walk-in cupboard, a third bedroom with fitted wardrobes, and a spacious modern family bathroom, all designed with comfort and flexibility in mind.
The top floor features a large double bedroom with bespoke built-in seating and a dedicated desk area, plus another bathroom styled in a Scandinavian aesthetic with warm wood flooring. Extensive eaves storage offers additional practicality.
Externally, the property benefits from a charming walled front garden with private off-street parking, a real bonus in this desirable area. The beautiful, mature rear garden is a true sanctuary, featuring a patio, paved areas, lush lawn, mature shrub borders, and vibrant planting. A large storage shed and a covered raised decking area with wisteria and a pergola provide perfect outdoor spaces for relaxation, entertaining, and enjoying the peaceful garden ambiance.
This property radiates a wonderful, inviting vibe throughout, making it an ideal, long-term family home that offers both flexibility and charm in abundance.
