A charming period home with great reception space, a large rear garden and off road parking.

Description

18 Newbury Street is a charming period home, full of beautiful character features throughout, including exposed beams and
impressive fireplaces. The accommodation has excellent living space including a particularly spacious reception hall, a well proportioned sitting room with a large fireplace housing a wood burner, and separate dining room. From the sitting room are stairs leading down to the cellar. The current owners have extended the property to create a superb kitchen/dining room, which is the real hub of the home, with an impressive roof lantern bringing a huge amount of natural light into the room. The kitchen has been fitted with an extensive range of wall and floor mounted cupboards and drawers, butler sink, space for an Aga, and has a wonderful aspect over the rear garden. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a rear hall, providing access outside, utility room, cloakroom, and bathroom with separate shower. On the first floor are three double bedrooms and a separate cloakroom.

A particular feature of this home is the good-sized enclosed rear garden with a large area of level lawn and decked area providing a space for outdoors dining. The property also has the right to pass over a driveway providing access to private off road parking for a couple of vehicles.
