PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
Offering an abundance of light and plenty of space (865sqft/80.4sm) is this beautifully presented two double bedroom split level maisonette that comes with a lovely private roof terrace that captures the afternoon sunshine.
The maisonette is located on the top two floors of a Victorian terrace, it has been stylishly decorated internally by the current owners and also benefits from a very long lease (approx. 995yrs with the freeholder on the ground floor), off street parking on the forecourt at the front of the building, double glazed windows throughout and a newly fitted boiler installed in March of this year.
The maisonette has its own private entrance with a newly fitted UPVC door on the ground floor, the entrance was re-tiled in 2016, the rest of the hallway was re-carpeted in 2017 and re-decorated this year. The staircase leads up to the first-floor landing giving access to the ground floor rooms and continues upstairs to the second floor.
Off the half landing is the family bathroom which was recently renovated in 2019 to a luxurious high standard. The walls and floors are clad in polished concrete tiles, accompanied by a white toilet, wash hand basin and bathtub with contemporary black fittings, very chic! A raised frosted window sits above the bath offering natural light, ventilation and some extra shelving.
At the front of the property is a generous reception room that spans the whole width of the house and is illuminated with natural light from three large South facing sash windows furnished with blinds. The room benefits from high ceilings, wood flooring, ceiling spotlights and shelving in the alcove of the chimney breast. There is plenty of entertaining space in this room, the current owners have space for a sofa, armchairs and a dining table and chairs.
At the rear of the property is the kitchen which gives direct access to the roof terrace through a patio door at the back. The kitchen offers a good amount of wall and base units with a granite worktop above and a white metro tiled splash back. The oven and hob are integrated and there is a free-standing washing machine and fridge freezer.
The main roof terrace is raised with steps leading up, allowing for some useful storage underneath. The roof terrace has a West facing aspect which captures the afternoon and evening sunshine, a perfect place for a quiet drink on a summers evening. It was renovated in 2018 and offers a nice private secluded space to sit outside.
Upstairs on the second floor there is a huge master bedroom at the front of the property which is a similar footprint to the reception room below. Mirroring downstairs there are 3 large south facing sash windows furnished with blinds making this a very bright room, there are more ceiling spotlights and the floors are the original wooden floorboards that have been recently painted this year.
Accompanying the bedroom is a luxurious en-suite shower room which was renovated at the same time and in the same chic style as the bathroom downstairs. Floor to ceiling concrete tiles, a walk-in shower enclosure, toilet and slim wash hand basin, complete with black fittings. A raised glass brick window allows for some natural light.
The second bedroom is located at the rear of the property, adjacent to the master bedroom. It’s a good size double with the same painted wooden flooring, ceiling spotlights and a large double-glazed window overlooking the roof terrace.
