About this property
A second floor, three bedroom apartment forming part of an Edwardian detached house built in 1903 to a design by E.W. Allfrey.
The property is one of four apartments in this handsome converted Edwardian detached home. The property is conveniently situated in a sought after side road and benefits from a communal garden and off-road parking.
The house was built in 1903 by local architect E.W. Allfrey for Sir Charles Firth, Regius Professor of Modern History. The property displays an innovative composition with eclectic details. With references to the Queen Anne style in its rich, orange-coloured brick, its front gable is reminiscent of the seventieth century manor house style, and motifs of the arts and craft style are seen in its large front door surrounded by ashlar and sheltered by a canopy.
Through the front door, you are welcomed by a light communal hallway with beautiful parquet flooring and a useful store cupboard. Located on the second floor, the front door of the apartment opens to a large entrance hall which leads through the property.
The living/dining room benefits from an ornate fireplace and a large bay window to the rear with views to the garden. The kitchen includes a breakfast area and integrated appliances. The master bedroom is spacious and light, with a south facing bay window. To the front, is a good-sized double bedroom with a bay window and there is a further bedroom to the rear. The property also benefits from a family bathroom and shower room.
To the exterior, at the rear is a large landscaped communal garden which is mainly laid to lawn, with mature shrubs and borders. To the front is a gravelled driveway with allocated parking and shared bike/storage shed.
