Set behind a traditional frontage on Thornhill Road, number 33 is an extended three bedroom semi-detached home that immediately sets itself apart. This is a property with a big personality – full of charm, character and original features, yet thoughtfully extended and remodelled to suit modern family life. From the moment you step inside, it’s clear this is a home that has been loved and enjoyed, with spaces that flow beautifully and invite you to linger.

The front reception room is a welcoming first impression. Bathed in natural light from the bay window, complete with fitted shutters, it enjoys an open outlook to the front and a wonderfully flexible feel. Currently used as a playroom, it would just as easily lend itself to a cosy lounge, formal dining room or even a stylish home office, adapting effortlessly to the needs of its next owners.

To the rear, the second reception room has been significantly extended, doubling its original size and transforming it into a truly impressive family living space. Full height windows span the back of the room, while a large ceiling lantern draws light down from above, creating a bright yet inviting atmosphere throughout the day. A cosy open fire forms a natural focal point, perfect for winter evenings, while a door open directly onto the private rear patio and gardens beyond. This is a room designed for everyday family life as well as relaxed entertaining, with space to gather, unwind and enjoy time together.

The galley kitchen sits comfortably between the original house and the extension, fitted with a range of shaker style base and wall units complemented by warm wooden worktops. A small breakfast bar provides the perfect perch for friends to chat while supper is prepared, adding to the sociable feel of the home. From here, a corridor leads through to the rear extension where a modern downstairs shower room adds valuable practicality for busy households.

Beyond this, a sliding glass door opens into one of the most striking spaces in the house. Designed with entertaining in mind, this room makes exceptional use of glass, with light flooding in from all angles and another ceiling lantern framing the space beautifully. Doors open both to the rear patio and to an enclosed front courtyard, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out. Tucked just off this area is a room currently used as a wine room, again benefitting from a ceiling lantern. This space could easily be converted into a home office, studio or hobby room if required, offering excellent flexibility.

Upstairs, the sense of space continues. There are three well proportioned bedrooms, all thoughtfully laid out. The main bedroom sits to the rear and is a generous double, featuring patio doors that open onto the roof, creating a unique and airy feel. Fitted wardrobes with sliding glass doors provide ample storage without compromising on floor space. The second double bedroom, located at the front of the house, mirrors this with its own fitted wardrobes and pleasant outlook. The third bedroom is a spacious single, ideal as a child’s room, guest room or home office.

The family bathroom is modern and stylish, fitted with a vanity wash hand basin and WC with concealed cistern, alongside a beautiful freestanding bathtub that adds a touch of luxury and calm. It’s a space designed for relaxation at the end of a long day.

Outside, the generous west facing rear garden is a real highlight. Offering both patio areas and artificial lawn, there is ample room to relax, entertain and play. The gardens are wonderfully private, creating a peaceful retreat from the outside world, and feature a pond that adds to the sense of tranquillity. With sun throughout the afternoon and evening, it’s an ideal setting for summer barbecues, children’s play or simply unwinding with a glass of wine.

33 Thornhill Road is a home that effortlessly combines character and contemporary living. With its versatile layout, impressive extensions and private gardens, it offers something truly special for those seeking a property with warmth, individuality and space to grow.
