Description
No. 35 Old Cabra Road is an attractive and substantial period home set back behind a mature front garden, offering an immediate sense of character and privacy. Beyond the red brick façade lies a deceptively spacious interior, where generous reception rooms are complemented by a well designed rear extension that responds to modern living. The overall layout has a natural flow, with a strong emphasis on light and connection to the garden, particularly to the rear where the south westerly aspect enhances the sense of space and brightness throughout the day.
Upon entering, a tiled porch leads into a spacious and welcoming entrance hallway, finished with tiled flooring, coving and a ceiling rose, setting the tone for the period detail carried through the home. From here, the two principal reception rooms are accessed. The first is positioned to the front and benefits from excellent natural light through two double glazed windows. It is finished with wooden flooring and retains original detailing including coving and a ceiling rose, while an ornate marble style fireplace with decorative tiling and fitted radiator covers provides a focal point. To the rear of the original house, the second reception room mirrors the front in scale and proportion and enjoys strong natural light through two sash windows to the gable. This room continues the period character with picture rails, coving and ceiling rose, alongside a marble style fireplace, and opens through to the kitchen and dining area.
The rear of the property has been extended to create a large open plan kitchen, dining and living space which forms the heart of the home. The kitchen area is fitted with tiled flooring and an extensive range of units, complemented by a central island providing additional storage and preparation space, along with appliances including a dishwasher and range style gas hob. A full length glazed elevation runs along one side, incorporating floor to ceiling windows and large opening doors that connect directly to the garden and allow for an abundance of natural light. The adjoining living area is finished with wooden flooring and is positioned to fully benefit from the south westerly aspect, creating a bright and comfortable everyday space suited to both family life and entertaining.
To the rear of the extension, a separate family room provides a flexible additional reception space which can be used in conjunction with the main area or closed off when required. A skylight and large folding doors further enhance the natural light within this room, again benefiting from the south westerly orientation. Also at this level, a utility room is located to the rear and is fitted with storage units, while a shower room serves the ground floor accommodation.
Upstairs, a spacious landing is filled with natural light from a large Velux window and provides access to the attic via a Stira staircase. At first floor return level, a further room currently in use as a kitchenette offers flexibility in use, having originally been designed as a bedroom. It features a sash window overlooking the rear, a skylight providing additional light, and a cast iron fireplace, together with fitted units and countertops. The main bathroom is also located on the return and is finished with tiled flooring and tiled surrounds to the shower area. It comprises a double shower tray, heated towel rail, wash hand basin with storage beneath and WC, along with a window providing natural light and ventilation.
The main bedroom is positioned to the rear of the property and enjoys a dual aspect with sash windows overlooking both the rear and side, benefiting from the south westerly light throughout the day. The room is finished with wooden flooring, built in wardrobes and a cast iron fireplace. To the front, there are two further bedrooms overlooking Old Cabra Road, both retaining the character of the house with wooden flooring and original fireplaces. The second bedroom is a generously sized double, while the third is suitable as a single bedroom or home office.
Externally, the side garden is arranged as a highly usable and low maintenance space, combining patio paving with a gravelled section. A raised red brick planted border runs along the boundary and is well established with a variety of mature planting including cordyline, Sambucus, bay tree, bamboo and an apple tree, along with a mix of shrubs that provide colour and privacy. The paved area accommodates outdoor seating and dining, while a defined planted section is currently set out as a crop or growing area, adding an additional practical element to the garden. To the rear, there is off street parking accessed via gated vehicular entrance onto Ardmore Avenue. The garden is enclosed by mature planting and red brick walls, creating a strong sense of privacy throughout.
