For sale for the first time since 1964, a much-loved detached family home tucked away along a quiet, popular residential no-through road close to the Downs in Redland.
A most attractive, 5-bedroom, 3 reception room, two-storey detached family home with driveway parking, single garage and extensive gardens on three sides.
Enjoying a wonderful leafy location on an exceptionally quiet road within 778 metres of Redland Green Secondary School and 100 metres of Westbury Park Primary School. Just a short walk away is Redland Green Park which provides a lovely green open space including children's play park. On the fringe of this is Redland Tennis/Squash Club and a separate Bowling Club. Nearby shops on Coldharbour Road as well as a Waitrose together with the Orpheus Cinema and a whole host of restaurants and coffee shops. The Downs offers 400 acres of recreational space and is within only 200 metres of the property.
Whilst has been a cherished home for a large family, it offers glorious potential to extend and re-design to one's own preferences, subject to first obtaining the necessary consents. In recent years, houses in the vicinity have undergone significant investment and improvement partly due its unique location between the Downs and Redland Green Park. The house is now being sold with no onward chain making a prompt move possible.
Ground Floor: entrance vestibule, reception hall, cloakroom/wc, dining room, sitting room, breakfast room, kitchen.
First Floor: split level landing, 5 bedrooms, bathroom, separate wc
Extensive full height fully boarded attic.
Outside: driveway parking for at least two cars, single garage, wide front garden (55ft x 38ft), side garden (40ft x 23ft) and south-westerly facing rear garden with Victorian greenhouse (63ft x 55ft).
Opportunities like this are seldom available especially in this location, and whilst in the fullness of time one might decide to re-imagine the house, it is not a necessity having and a more sympathetic upgrade would be perfectly possible.
