Description
The property on Donnington Road is a double-fronted house built in 1928, with a rare distinction and sprawling living space of over 5,000 sq ft. The house features a carriage driveway and mature trees, a pillared exterior porch with stained-glass panels, and broad stone steps leading to the front entrance. The interior boasts wide-plank engineered oak floors, a central corridor, and a considerable amount of natural light throughout.
The ground floor includes a principal reception room with a contemporary pastel surround fireplace, a semi-enclosed exterior space, and a side extension potential. The garden is arranged across two tiers, with a self-contained annex, a private lawn, and a variety of planted trees and flowers. The house also features a kitchen and informal snug, a large black French door, and six bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with an en suite and a dressing room.
There are two Certificates of Lawfulness for a potential 85 sq ft attic conversion and a 16 sq ft rear extension, allowing for further expansion up to 5,000 sq ft.
