5 Montpelier Road is a fine example of an elegant Victorian Villa situated close to the town centre in an attractive Grade 2 Listed Terrace with an open field in front. The property enjoys super views over the town towards Capstone and Hillsborough, the harbour the Bristol Channel and distant Welsh Coast. There is also the benefit of no onward chain.

The house has accommodation arranged over three floors and is particularly versatile and perfect for the larger family.

Furthermore, due to the property's versatility, the exact set-up and configuration can be easily tailored to suit the needs of the purchaser (assuming consent would be granted, if needed). The original features include sash windows, and there are ornate coved ceilings, a staircase with a spindle balustrade, various fireplaces in the main living rooms together with full height windows which perfectly frame the delightful views over the town towards the sea and coastline. Some of the windows have original working shutters.

The high street is just a few hundred metres away and the sea front which has a picturesque harbour and working quay is just 1/4 mile away. There are an array of restaurants, various bars and public houses, a theatre, cinema, banks, independent shops as well as larger supermarkets including Tesco, Lidl and Co-Op, a Medical Centre and Hospital and beaches at Wildersmouth and the famous 'Tunnels' Beach with its hard carved Victorian tunnel access. The towns schools for all ages are all close by.

The kitchen sits at the rear and has a door out onto the rear garden as well as a secondary staircase which leads up to the first floor.

Moving to the first floor, there are three bedrooms, 2 double rooms and 1 single room, with bedrooms 1 and 3 enjoying excellent views over the neighbouring open field and across the town towards Hillsborough, the Bristol Channel and the distant Welsh coast. The large family bathroom comprises a modern white suite with a bath and a separate walk-in shower cubicle.

Outside, at the front of the property there is a walled enclosed level and well-stocked area of garden which is laid to lawn and interspersed with a variety of shrubs, bushes and plants. There is a gated access at the left-hand side of the house which leads around to the rear of the building.

There is a right of way that exists over the rear and side of the property and out onto Montpelier Road which benefits the neighbour in 4 Montpelier Road. We understand that although this right of way exists, it is very rarely (if ever) used.
