Occupying a prominent position on the ever-desirable Manor Drive South, this handsome early 20th century semi-detached residence presents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the most attractive homes on one of the area's most admired streets.
A beautifully presented entrance hall immediately sets the tone, welcoming visitors through a magnificent traditional oak front door and showcasing the craftsmanship and character synonymous with homes of this era. Rich in original features and offering an abundance of natural light throughout, the property retains the warmth and elegance expected from a home of this period.
The ground floor offers two generously proportioned reception rooms, both of similar size and brimming with traditional character. Large windows flood the spaces with natural light, while attractive fireplaces, period detailing and generous ceiling heights create warm and inviting living environments. The rear reception room flows naturally into a conservatory, providing an additional seating area with pleasant views over the garden and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
The kitchen is a particularly impressive size and offers exceptional scope for transformation. While requiring modernisation, it provides a superb footprint for a contemporary family kitchen and dining space. A delightful seating area situated behind the integrated garage further enhances the versatility of this part of the home and offers excellent potential for those looking to create a sociable heart to the house.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom. The accommodation is ideally suited to families, professional couples or those seeking additional space to work from home, with each room offering a comfortable and practical layout.
Externally, the property enjoys strong kerb appeal and an attractive presence within the street scene. A generous driveway provides ample off-road parking alongside an integrated garage, while the mature gardens to the front and rear offer privacy, greenery and excellent opportunities for landscaping or outdoor entertaining. The property also benefits from rooftop solar panels, adding a practical feature for modern living.
While the property would benefit from updating throughout, it represents an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a substantial period home with outstanding potential in a prime residential location. With its attractive architecture, spacious accommodation and enviable position on Manor Drive South, this is a house capable of becoming a truly exceptional long-term family home. A character-filled property of considerable charm and promise, situated in one of the area's most desirable and increasingly sought-after locations.
Anti-Money Laundering Compliance
We are legally required to conduct Anti Money Laundering checks on all purchasers, sellers, and giftors. These checks become mandatory when a seller accepts a purchaser's offer on a property. Anti-Money Laundering checks are valid for 6 months from the date they are completed. If your purchase does not proceed and you make an offer on another property more than 6 months later, or if your checks are more than 6 months old when making a new offer, you will need to complete and pay for new checks. We use a partner supplier MoveButler, to carry out these checks on our behalf. They will contact you directly once your offer has been accepted (subject to contract) to complete the electronic verification process securely. There is a non-refundable charge of £30 + VAT per purchaser and per giftor for these checks.. This fee must be paid before we can issue a memorandum of sale to solicitors and is non-refundable under any circumstances. Ashtons receive a portion of this fee from MoveButler as compensation for facilitating these checks and our administrative role in the compliance process.
