Situated on a wide tree-lined street running down the side of popular Wish Park, the house is set back from the road behind a little front garden area with two mature olive trees screening the house from the road. This beautiful Victorian villa is just off the seafront and retains a wealth of character whilst also working perfectly as a modern family home. Light filled and in good order, a lovely sitting room and dining room combine, via double doors at one end, with the kitchen-breakfast room, to create a semi open-plan, L-shaped space, ideal for entertaining and for the family to spread out. A feature fireplace offers a lovely focal point in the bay fronted living room (Sea view from the livinging room), which flows directly into the dining room which has bespoke built-in bookcases and is large enough to house an upright piano and further storage cupboards. Natural light filters in from the east and west, making the space bright and airy. Adding to the sociable feel, the lovely kitchen and breakfast area extends across the back of the house, with two skylights, and opens out into the garden via two sets of French doors. Light-toned shaker cabinets and solid stone countertops incorporate a range of appliances and there is a bespoke breakfast bar with Butchers block worktop. A useful, capacious utility room and cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation. The sense of style and space continues upstairs where five bedrooms (Sea view from the principal bedroom) and three bathrooms occupy the upper two storeys. The generous principal bedroom has an en-suite shower room and large bay windows, feature fireplace and fitted wardrobes, whilst the four additional bedrooms are all of a good size. The family bathroom adds a luxurious finishing touch with tiled walls, stone tops and fitted storage.
