Description - The Corner house is a handsome early 20th century detached home occupying an exceptional position standing proudly on the corner of Beaconsfield Road and Fawcett Road. Set within beautifully established wraparound gardens, this elegant family home combines period character with spacious and versatile accommodation, all within easy reach of the town centre and seafront.

Approached via a charming front garden planted with fragrant lavender and roses, a pathway bordered by clipped box hedging leads to the recessed entrance porch and welcoming reception hall. The impressive L-shaped hallway features polished hardwood flooring, an elegant staircase rising to the first floor, and panelled doors opening to the principal reception rooms.

The beautifully proportioned sitting room is flooded with natural light from dual aspect windows and enjoys direct access to the garden through casement doors. An imposing fireplace with painted timber mantel creates a striking focal point. A second reception room, currently used as a spacious study, enjoys a large bay window overlooking Beaconsfield Road.

At the heart of the home lies a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, ideal for modern family living and entertaining. Partly incorporating a large conservatory with vaulted ceiling and deep glazed windows overlooking the garden, this exceptional room enjoys an abundance of natural light. The sitting area centres around a raised woodburning stove, while the bespoke handcrafted kitchen is fitted with polished stone work surfaces, a central island with hardwood top, gas-fired Aga and ample space for appliances. Beyond the kitchen is a practical rear hallway/boot room, utility room with additional storage and Belfast sink, cloakroom and further storage, with a stable door opening to the rear garden.

The elegant staircase rises to a galleried first floor landing with large picture window and built-in airing cupboard. The property offers four generous double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a wonderfully light room with a large bay window enjoying angled sea views and is complemented by an ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom is equally impressive, featuring dual aspect windows and casement doors opening onto a splendid balcony with rooftop views towards the sea. Two further well-proportioned bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom with separate bath and shower complete the accommodation.

The gardens are a particular feature of The Cornerhouse, wrapping around the side and rear of the property with expansive lawns and beautifully stocked shaped borders filled with mature shrubs and flowering plants. A gate opens onto Fawcett Road, while a further rear garden enjoys additional lawned areas and established planting.
Accessed from Fawcett Road is a substantial detached two-storey garage building with studio above, complete with power, lighting and external staircase access.
