Description

This impressive five-bedroom 1930s detached home has been significantly extended and enhanced by the current owners, now offering spacious open-plan living and well-balanced accommodation arranged over three floors.

Occupying an enviable position at the end of Talbot Road, a no-through road just east of the town centre, the property is within walking distance of Castle Road's popular amenities, well-regarded local schools, Russell Park and the Embankment.

Inside, the house blends stylish modern finishes with attractive period character, including a number of fireplaces and oak flooring across the ground floor.

To the rear, the standout open-plan kitchen/dining room provides a superb space for everyday family life and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with a range of units, integrated appliances, space for a range-style cooker, quartz worktops, and a central island with seating. Underfloor heating and bi-fold doors opening onto the garden add to the appeal. To the front of the property is a separate living room with a bay window, while the former kitchen has been converted into a useful utility room, accessible from both the hallway and kitchen area.

On the first floor there are two generous double bedrooms and a third smaller bedroom, all served by a family bathroom. The former loft space has been converted to create two further well-proportioned bedrooms, together with a shower room.

Further benefits include double glazing, gas-fired central heating, and a ground-floor cloakroom.

Outside, the property offers off-road parking to the front and a detached garage. The rear garden features a block-paved patio, a mainly lawned area extending to approximately 75 feet in depth, and a variety of mature shrubs and trees.
