DESCRIPTION
Nestled on the highly desirable Priory Road in central Newbury, a mere stone's throw from the railway station, stands No. 9, a distinguished and handsome period residence brimming with character and history, dating back to 1877.
This exceptional home welcomes you with a formal living room, bathed in natural light from a charming bay window and featuring elegant exposed floorboards and a period fireplace, creating a warm and inviting ambience. Adjacent is a versatile formal dining room or music room, boasting another period fireplace, new insulated floorboards, and a large sash window that frames delightful views of the herb courtyard.
The ground floor further unfolds to reveal a study or family room, seamlessly flowing into a stunning kitchen and dining area. Thoughtfully designed by the current owners to optimise both storage and entertaining, this impressive space showcases a range of cream shaker-style units complemented by sleek black granite worktops, a range oven, and a central kitchen island, all enhanced by sash windows overlooking the breathtaking south-facing gardens. Completing the ground floor is a practical utility room and a convenient WC.
Ascending to the first floor, you will find a luxurious master bedroom complete with a walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room, alongside three further generously sized double bedrooms, each benefitting from elegant sash windows.
Offering potential for further expansion, the property could be enhanced by a loft conversion, subject to planning permission.

OUTSIDE
The enchanting gardens are a true highlight, having been lovingly maintained by the current vendors for over 30 years. Showcasing a vibrant array of mature flowers and shrubs, and predominantly laid to lawn, they create a serene and picturesque setting.
