Property description
The property 29 Lyndewode Road is an attractive semi-detached single-fronted Victorian family home offering almost 2,200 sq ft of sensitively modernised accommodation arranged over three floors.

Designed to create a stylish yet functional setting for both everyday living and entertaining, the accommodation blends contemporary comforts—such as high-quality fittings and a neutral colour palette—with characterful period features. It flows from an entrance porch into a warm and inviting hallway, complete with exposed timber flooring and practical built-in storage.

The accommodation includes a sitting room with a large front-aspect bay window and an open fireplace framed by bespoke fitted cabinetry, and a dining room with exposed wooden flooring, a fireplace with matching built-in storage, and double-glazed doors opening into a spacious L-shaped kitchen/breakfast room with quarry-tiled flooring throughout. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, including a breakfast bar, complementary work surfaces and splashbacks, a four-oven Aga, modern integrated appliances, and a useful interconnecting fitted utility room with an en suite cloakroom and access to the rear garden. A large sky lantern and bi-fold doors flood the entire space with natural light.

On the first floor the property provides a principal bedroom with a large front aspect bay window, feature fireplace, fitted storage and an en suite bathroom with double basin. Also on this floor is an additional double bedroom with fitted storage and a feature fireplace, and a family bathroom with twin sinks, bath and separate adjacent shower enclosure.

The property’s three remaining bedrooms, two with feature fireplaces, can be found on the part-vaulted second floor, together with a useful walk-in store.

Outside
Set behind low-level walling topped by mature hedging and having plenty of kerb appeal, the property is approached over an original tiled path leading to the period panelled and part-glazed front door. The enclosed part-walled courtyard garden to the rear, accessible from the kitchen/breakfast and utility rooms, is paved for ease of maintenance bordered by mature planting and features a seating area part-covered by a pergola, the whole ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining.

Location
Lyndewode Road lies to the south side of the city in close proximity to Mill Road, a cosmopolitan shopping and dining and popular area of the city, and to the shopping facilities on Hills Road. It is within easy walking or cycling distance of the historical city centre with its excellent range of independent and high street stores, bars, cafés, restaurants, leisure, cultural and service facilities, as well as the green open spaces of Parker’s Piece and the University Botanic Garden.
