Forming part of a handsome and much-admired row in Yewbank Terrace, this substantial Victorian terraced home offers generous family accommodation planned across four floors, including up to five double bedrooms.

This elegant home, presented to an impressively high standard and retaining lovely period details, enjoys a great location close to central amenities with a westerly-facing garden to the rear.

The accommodation has been much improved by the current owners and retains many original features including ceiling coving and an impressive staircase leading upwards from the reception hall.

The current layout provides two good reception rooms, including a elegant living room with broad bay window overlooking a wooded area, and a dining room with French doors which open on to the rear garden.

The breakfast kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of cream-coloured Shaker-style units with complimentary working surfaces, and a single glazed sink unit with granite drainer to either side and Amtico flooring.

Appliances include a dual-fuel range cooker with twin ovens, grill and a seven-ring hob, cooker hood and integrated dishwasher. A broad UPVC double glazed window provides an attractive aspect to the west of the garden.

The five bedrooms are set across the first and second floors, as are a pair of bathrooms – both stylishly finished with white sanitary ware – along with a cloakroom at the first-floor half-landing.

On the lower ground floor is a large basement area, and although partly improved through the creation of a utility room, it does offer lots of potential for upgrading, creating either additional living, hobbies or play space.

Outside is parking to the front, and a charming enclosed westerly facing garden to the rear has been attractively landscaped to include stone paved pathways and flowerbeds stocked with a variety of plants and shrubs.

There is a pleasant seating area and a paved terrace – just right to enjoy the early evening sun. From here, a flight of steps lead down to the lower ground floor entrance and there is also a pedestrian gateway leading from the garden to the rear lane which runs up the rear of Yewbank Terrace.
