Description
This stunning Edwardian family home has beautifully appointed interiors and an imposing double fronted exterior with shuttered sash windows. Located on the northern slopes of Lansdown, close to Stephens Church and the sought after residential area of Richmond, this is a very well-situated property, especially good for excellent local schooling with both Kingswood and The Royal High on your doorstep.
The main feeling you get at Novelli is one of space and light, with high ceilings and well proportioned rooms throughout. The living/dining room runs full width to the house lit by a large three bay window to the front. The room has characterful coving and period features, as well as a Bath stone surround working fireplace, cast iron radiators and built-in storage plus floating shelving to either side of the chimney breast. This room is vast, with ample space for both lounging and dining.
The kitchen-breakfast room is also of an excellent size and has a gorgeous dark blue handmade fitted kitchen with wood block worktops, integrated wine fridge and dishwasher as well as a large island unit with breakfast bar. Underfloor heating through engineered oak wood floors completes the look. There is space also for an American style fridge/freezer and range cooker.
Upstairs there are five bedrooms over two floors. The principal bedroom has built in wardrobes and en suite shower room with high-end fittings and unique upcycled vanity unit and sink. There is a family bathroom to the first floor. To the second floor are two further bedrooms and bathroom. Any of these bedrooms could also double as a study. To the outside is a south-facing lawned garden that wraps around the house, with a courtyard to the rear and garage.
