Description

Beautiful, sympathetically restored Victorian residence looking out onto People’s Park and the sea. Boasting features like a large marble fireplace in the drawing room and dining room A front door with an impressive fanlight opens into a porch and then into a porcelain tile floored-hall, much of the original cornice and coving work remain intact. The house is elegantly decorated throughout in neutral shades with long drapes. The cream-carpeted drawing room on the left is a long, elegant room looking over the People’s Park through tall sash windows (with working shutters) at the front end and over the neat back garden at the back. The sitting-room/dining-room on the right of the hall, also dual aspect, has a reproduction Belle Cheminée marble fireplace with a gas fire. Steps at the back of the hall lead down to the garden level, past a smart shower room on the return. Double doors with stained glass panels open into it.

Downstairs, the oak-floored kitchen/breakfast room like the drawing room above, runs the length of the house; it has cream units, a large Aga, a marble-topped island unit and counter-tops. French doors open into the garden at the back. There is also a comfortable family room at this level, a small utility room, double bedroom and guest toilet. There are four double bedrooms upstairs, all with smart Robert Mooney fitted wardrobes. The best views of the sea are from the two bedrooms at the front of the house: the wide main bedroom with two tall sash windows looks over the park and sea and as a small en-suite off it. The back garden is a decent size and has been nicely landscaped, with flowerbeds curving around the lawn. Steps lead down to a graveled space where there is parking for two cars behind a tall electronic gate off a laneway at the side of the house. There is also residents permit parking on Park Road.
