This handsome five-bedroom Edwardian terrace situated on the highly desirable De Freville Avenue is beautifully presented throughout with well-balanced accommodation across three floors featuring a blend of period features alongside modern living. As you approach the property the front garden is enclosed by a low brick wall topped with an evergreen hedge, a quarry-tiled path leading to the front door, lawn and an array of established plants and shrubs. Upon entry you are invited into a bright and welcoming hallway with herringbone parquet flooring and a stained-glass front door. To the front, the bay-windowed living room is filled with natural light and retains its original decorative coving alongside a cosy log burner, and beautifully blends traditional features with modern décor. Bookshelves and cupboard space are neatly built into the alcoves to either side of the fireplace. Beyond, the dining room (currently arranged as a family room and playroom) again features a striking fireplace with built in bookshelves and cupboard space to one side and has French doors to the side return and on to the garden. The beautiful shaker-style kitchen is situated at the back overlooking the lovely west-facing garden. Here there is underfloor heating and the kitchen has been fitted with base level and eye level cabinetry, electric stove and hob, and has space for a dishwasher and freestanding fridge freezer. The kitchen opens to a bright breakfast room with a fully glazed gable end including French doors opening onto the garden. Completing the ground floor is a utility room and a contemporary WC. On the first floor, the principal bedroom spans the width of the house and features two sash windows to the front, a single built-in wardrobe, an original cast-iron fireplace, and an ensuite shower room. Bedroom two is a generous double with garden views, alongside bedroom three at the rear of the property and  currently used as a home office.
