One of the last remaining of the very first houses built on then-new, although still very desirable Chilbolton Ave, this substantial and beautifully proportioned Edwardian detached family home occupies a generous plot of 0.8 acres and offers close to 3,700 sq ft of versatile accommodation, including useful outbuildings and garaging. The property combines elegant period character with well-balanced living spaces, making it ideally suited to modern family life. The house presents an attractive façade with classic architectural detailing and is approached via a gravel driveway providing ample off-road parking, and additional external storage to the front and side of the property. Mature planting and established boundaries create a pleasing sense of privacy, while the overall setting is both peaceful and convenient.

The ground floor is arranged around a welcoming central hallway, from which the principal reception rooms flow effortlessly. A generously proportioned sitting room enjoys views over the garden and offers an inviting space for everyday living, while the formal dining room provides an ideal setting for entertaining. A garden room, filled with natural light, creates a delightful link between house and garden and can be enjoyed throughout the year. The kitchen is well positioned at rear of the home and is complemented by a breakfast room, making it a practical and sociable family space. Additional ground floor accommodation includes a study, larder, storeroom and boot room, all contributing to the excellent functionality of the layout, enhancing everyday convenience.

On the first floor, the property offers five well-proportioned bedrooms, all enjoying pleasant outlooks and generous dimensions. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en suite facilities, while the remaining bedrooms are served by family bath and shower rooms. The arrangement is ideal for families, guests or those requiring flexible home-working space. Outside, the gardens wrap around the property and provide a combination of lawned areas, established shrubs and private seating spaces, perfect for both relaxation and entertaining. Additional outbuildings, including a summer house and shed, add further flexibility and storage.

Chilbolton Avenue is conveniently located for access to the city centre, mainline railway station and within short walking distance of a range of highly regarded schools. This exceptional home offers a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial property in a prime location, with scope to tailor and enhance to individual tastes if desired.
