KEY FEATURES
SUMMARY
This beautiful property, which has been a much loved home for a number of years, is bursting with character, warmth and charm and although perfectly liveable, would now benefit from internal updating. Set over three floors, the well-proportioned accommodation which extends to just over 1,600 square feet in total includes: a beautiful hall with panelled staircase; a large, light, bright double aspect sitting / dining room; a good size kitchen / breakfast room that opens up onto a small courtyard at the side of the house; a spacious bathroom and four good size bedrooms. NB: To the back of the kitchen is an attached brick built outbuilding which is very handy for the storage of bikes etc as it has access from the street. This building could also potentially be opened up into the kitchen (subject to the necessary consents) or very easily be converted into an artist studio or home office if desired. It also gives access to the rear courtyard garden. Outside, the house sits in a terrace of pretty Edwardian properties, where there is the bonus of private parking for the residents. Just a short pretty walk to the High Street, Citadel and station, and just a stone’s throw from the coast, this property is perfectly placed to take full advantage of all the local amenities and lifestyle opportunities on offer.
DETAILS
Hallway
The art deco style front door opens into a long hallway where a panelled staircase leads up to the first floor. Large under stairs cupboard. Space for cloaks and free standing furniture.
Sitting / Dining Room
On entering this lovely triple aspect open plan living / dining room, you immediately have the feeling of space, warmth and calm. With its large bay window to the front and two sash windows to the side, the sitting area is both light and cosy and the dining area at the other end of the room, plenty big enough for a large table, chairs and free standing furniture.
Kitchen / Breakfast Room
Positioned at the back of the house with windows over and door onto a small gated courtyard to the side, this room is a lovely place to cook and eat. This light, bright space has fitted wood units, both base and wall, and a range of built-in cupboards. Space for free standing cooker, fridge/freezer, washing machine and table and chairs. NB: This room is bordered to the rear by a brick outbuilding which could potentially, subject to the necessary professional advice and permissions, be incorporated into the kitchen to make a large open plan room that opens up onto both outside courtyard spaces.

Bedroom 3
This lovely room with its stripped floor and wonderful views towards the Citadel is bursting with character and charm. Dormer style window to front.
Bedroom 4
Currently set up as a bedroom, this pretty room could be utilised in a number of different ways and with the dormer window to the rear giving far reaching views, it would make the perfect study or office space.
Outside
To the front of the property is a small garden area bounded by a low wall. An original tiled pathway leads you to the front door. To the rear are two enclosed, separate courtyard gardens, which could make lovely spots for alfresco dining and summer living. A gate to the side of the property leads through to the smallest courtyard which in turn gives access to the kitchen and the very useful brick outbuilding, which has masses of potential (stp). Bi-fold doors on the side of the outbuilding make it the perfect place for the storage of bikes etc. A door at the back leads out to the main garden area. NB: We understand that Eagle Road is unadopted and that parking is private and for residents only.
