Fernleigh stands as a fine representation of a late Victorian semi-detached residence constructed in 1890. The property has been skilfully extended and remodelled while retaining all the character and Victorian charm, resulting in a generously spacious family home with modern comforts and abundant period character.
The property enjoys the advantage of a lengthy driveway to the side, leading to ample parking and a double garage - a rare find in such a central harbour bowl location. This area is expected to be highly desirable for those seeking to be close to the action while tucked away on a peaceful residential road renowned for its elevated view over the picturesque Brixham port.
Upon entering the property, one is immediately struck by the grand room dimensions, high ceilings, and deep skirting boards, all exemplifying Victorian grandeur. The generously sized lounge is perfectly positioned to take in the delightful open vista down to Brixham harbour. The formal dining room is ideally situated next to the impressively sized family kitchen, a room spacious enough to accommodate all modern conveniences. The garden room on the side is an ideal spot to enjoy breakfast with the morning sun filling the area, with patios just outside.
Just beyond, there is a very practical utility boot room that houses the boiler and washing machine, a great space for everyday family living. Towards the rear of the property, the studio could serve as a downstairs bedroom. Currently utilised as a home office, this light and spacious room is versatile for a range of purposes, from treatment rooms to guest accommodation. Alternatively, it could make for an inviting downstairs bedroom for those who might have difficulty with stairs and has the added benefit of its own shower room.
On the first floor, you'll discover three bedrooms, with the main bedroom impressively sized and boasting lovely views through its pretty bay windows. It also has access to its own en-suite shower room. The other two bedrooms are spacious doubles, accompanied by a separate family bathroom and WC.
The second-floor landing provides access to two more large double bedrooms, both of which are of an excellent size and offer ample storage solutions.
Outside the property, there is a substantial front lawn and a limestone wall that ensures excellent privacy from passers by. The long driveway provides ample parking for several vehicles and opens out to a spacious car park area adjacent to the double garage.
The gardens are beautifully landscaped, with various areas that provide practical living spaces, including a large patio terrace to the side of the house. Climbing a few steps, you'll come across a spacious garden room, which could easily be incorporated into the main living space if needed. This room is located directly above the studio space.
The double garage is impressively proportioned and features a higher-than-average 7ft opening. It comes complete with a loft space, power, light, and water. Underneath the garage, there is a very useful additional storage room that can be accessed from the side.
