Old Tiverton Road

A beautifully presented and substantial period townhouse, positioned on the edge of the city centre, offering spacious, light-filled and contemporary living. This impressive home has been tastefully renovated by the current owners, carefully retaining a wealth of original period features including high ceilings, stripped wooden stairs and attractive wooden flooring throughout.

A charming porch leads into a welcoming entrance hallway, setting the tone for the quality and scale found throughout the house. This space offers excellent practicality, with ample room for coats, shoes and everyday family life.

To the left of the hallway lies a superb open-plan kitchen and dining space, flooded with natural light from its attractive bay window. This versatile room works beautifully as a large, sociable living area, yet could easily be reconfigured into two separate reception rooms should a future owner desire a more formal layout.

To the rear, the well-equipped kitchen/breakfast room provides a wonderful family space, enhanced by underfloor heating and a cosy log burner, perfect for both everyday living and entertaining, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere during the winter months. A ground floor cloakroom completes the accommodation on this level.

Arranged over the upper floors are five excellent bedrooms, all of which are generously proportioned and filled with natural light, offering flexibility for families of all sizes. In addition, there is a further room currently used as a home office, ideal for modern working needs, but equally well suited as a sixth bedroom, nursery or dressing room if required. The bedroom accommodation is complemented by a large family bathroom, finished to a high standard, along with two additional cloakrooms. Original fireplaces remain in place and could be re-commissioned if desired. The landings are finished with seagrass flooring, adding further character and warmth.

Externally, there are well-tended and attractively sized gardens to both the front and rear, featuring lovely mature trees and providing excellent outdoor space for entertaining and family life. To the rear, the property benefits from a large garage/workshop, hard-standing parking and an additional parking space. The boarded attic offers valuable storage and potential for further use (subject to any necessary consents).

Having been a much-loved family home for the past 15 years, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial period home of real quality, offering elegant living space, modern convenience and an excellent location, all within easy reach of the city’s amenities.
