4 bedroom semi detached house for sale

Browside, 94 Dracaena Avenue is a delightful 1920's semi with much up its sleeve!

As its name suggests, Browside is located near the top of Dracaeana Avenue set discreetly back from the road and screened by mature shrubs and small trees. The 'garden' and vehicular access is to the rear, where there is a little lane serving a few homes and providing entrance to the double garage/workshop and parking bay for number 94.

The house itself is a gem- stylish, comfortable and well equipped, yet retaining the essence and 'feel' of its 1920's origins. From the original, wide, arched, lead and colour glazed front door to the generous hallway with octagonal leaded window, pine panelled doors and fine staircase, there is something a little different and special about the house.

Accommodation is arranged over three floors with the four bedrooms, including the master bedroom en suite and a lovely dormer window attic room with en suite and space to sleep and sit. Living accommodation is sociable and bright with bow window sitting room and a 'family' sized kitchen/dining room, leading to the sunroom and via French doors into the garden.

This rear garden is a delight, facing south south west, surprisingly private and full of colour and interest with areas of terrace to relax and a lovely, deep carp pond with waterfall and recirculating pump. The garden accesses a potting shed, the off road parking bay and the garage/workshop. This is a remarkable feature, providing two car garaging or generous workshop space, accessed from the rear lane by an electronic, remotely controlled door.

Browside provides much more than meets the eye - an outstanding house in a convenient spot - wholeheartedly recommended!
