Description
Nestled behind a pretty garden gate, framed by a neat garden to the right and a gentle stone pathway ahead, the home welcomes with a timeless confidence. There's plenty of parking along Holcombe Road and neighbouring North Avenue or scope to utilise the private garage tucked just across the way.
Step through the porch doors, a charming threshold complete with delicate stained-glass rose windows that catch the light in hues of ruby and green. The perfect place to store an umbrella, rest shopping bags from trips out, or kick off shoes after a busy day.
Beyond the porch lies the light-filled dual aspect lounge, where neutral carpet underfoot pairs effortlessly with beige walls and a feature chimney breast wallpaper. The warming fireplace and the surrounding white mantelpiece serve as a natural focal point for slow Sunday mornings and cosy evenings. Freestanding furniture sits snugly in the alcoves, and there's generous space for large family sofas, a bookcase or two, and even a writing desk. Light pours in from the front window, catching on the high skirting boards on summer days, while cast iron radiators complete the room for a warm and traditional finish.
Through a partially glazed door, and past the stairs to the first floor, lies the kitchen-dining room- a well-sized space that serves both function and charm. L-shaped cabinetry in soft white, with a gas hob and oven below, provides plenty of room for cooking and creativity, while the double window above the sink opens wide on both sides to welcome the outdoors in.
There's space for a six-seater dining table perfectly at home in the heart of the room, perfect for hosting friends, chatting over weekday suppers, or enjoying a long weekend brunch.
Underfoot, classic white tiles add a clean finish, while the cream and soft green walls keep things bright and calm.
Continue through to the rear of the home, where the garden room offers an enchanting space. With bi-folding doors and magnetically controlled inset blinds, it seamlessly connects indoors with the courtyard, offering a snug retreat for reading, working, or unwinding with a glass of something chilled. It currently plays host to a sofa bed, a flexible touch that transforms it into a guest room with ease.
Attached is a sleek downstairs WC featuring soft white paint, a neutral feature tile, a mirrored cabinet, a vanity with storage and a stylish, compact WC.
There's also a separate storage room, ideal for laundry or to be reimagined as a compact utility space.
Return to the hallway and ascend the carpeted staircase, with an open landing at the top and loft access tucked above, already boarded and with lighting and a ladder installed, it offers yet more storage or scope to explore.
To the right, the principal bedroom makes a beautiful first impression. Dual aspect sash windows invite in the views, one framing Holcombe Hill, the other offering a perfectly aligned sightline to the historic Greenmount United Reformed Church, both framing the home in peace and heritage.
Painted in a gentle blue with a subtle wallpapered feature wall, the space is dressed in traditional radiators, high skirting boards, and a decorative ceiling rose that brings elegance to the central light. There's ample room for a king-sized bed, wardrobes, and side tables. It's the kind of bedroom that calls for soft linen and a well-loved book on the nightstand.
Straight across the landing sits the bathroom, beautifully tiled in soft sandy hues with a gentle mosaic feature, creating a calm and inviting space. The vanity unit with drawers offers elegant storage beneath a deep basin, while the bathtub, complete with an attached shower head, awaits bubbles and bath soaks. The ornate door surround and folding door are perfectly in keeping with the home's traditional leanings.
Just next door is bedroom two, another classically styled space, with soft beige carpet, sunshine yellow walls, and a large sash window that overlooks the quiet street below. Ornate coving, a ceiling rose, and fitted wardrobes complete this warm, restful retreat.
Step through the garden room's bi-folding door to the courtyard garden, a private and peaceful retreat, ideal for an evening drink or summer morning coffee. But there's more... across the short walkway lies another garden space, adjacent to the garage fully equipped with power. A private patch of land, perfect for planting, pottering, or transforming into a home gym, studio, or even an office, nestled among the shrubs. It's a hidden treasure waiting to be shaped by new ideas.
