5 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

In an expanding town, I think homes in conservation areas represent fantastic long-term investments. Adam Howell, Ashford Homes

#TheGardenOfEngland

A fabulous Edwardian family home, located in a highly popular residential area, with large rooms throughout and accommodation over three floors, retaining much of its original charm and character and all within walking distance of the town centre and the Ashford International Train Station.

Position:
Albert Road is located in the centre of Ashford and represents a secluded and quiet residential area that is highly convenient for amenities and transport links. Albert Road predominantly comprises larger Victorian homes with good sized gardens. Thanks to the conservation area status, the character in the road will be protected and enhanced for years to come and has helped make this one of the most highly regarded locations in Ashford.

Description
A substantial Edwardian home retaining much of the original charm and character you would hope to see. Features such as stripped floorboards and timbers, numerous feature fireplaces, deep skirting boards, attractive bay windows, original doors and high ceilings are present throughout.
Unlike many homes in the road, this property boasts off street parking to the front, where the block paved driveway has parking provision for 2-3 cars. Another notable feature is the generous balcony accessed from the garden facing first floor bedroom.
Unlike other homes in the road, and of this era, the proportion of the kitchen is commensurate to the rest of the house and provides ample room for a large dining table and entertaining space for larger families and friends.
Upstairs the bedrooms are of large proportions and are serviced by two bathrooms. On the top floor there is a room that could be used as a study, although I expect the fully insulated outbuilding in the garden is likely to provide more comfortable accommodation for those able to work from home.

Outside
The rear garden is a great size with plenty of space for different zones to be created but not so large that it requires extensive maintenance. The current owners have invested in the garden over the last few years, minimising the ongoing maintenance requirement, creating superb a BBQ area adjacent to the house, adding additional patio space and attractive raised beds and planting. The garden is south facing and relatively private, with no homes directly behind.
