Queens Road, Blackhill, DH8 0BH

A stunning late Victorian terraced home, lovingly maintained and beautifully upgraded by the current owners, blending wonderful period character with high-specification modern living.

With three bedrooms, a gorgeous traditional entrance, exceptional kitchen and bathroom, and a rear garage, this is a truly versatile home ideally suited to families, couples and downsizers alike.

Set on the sought-after Queens Road in Blackhill, this beautiful period property immediately impresses with its characterful frontage and traditional appeal.

A stunning composite front door, carefully chosen to complement the age and character of the property, opens into a charming traditional entrance vestibule before leading into a gorgeous hallway.

The hallway sets the tone for the rest of the home, with LVT flooring, traditional column radiators and a beautiful staircase rising to the first floor.

The stairs are finished with a carpet runner secured by elegant brass carpet rods, creating a lovely period-inspired feature.

There is also generous under-stairs storage, providing excellent practical space for everyday living.

To the front, the lounge is a welcoming and comfortable reception room, featuring LVT flooring, traditional column radiators and useful alcove storage.

The proportions and period detailing create a wonderfully characterful space for relaxing.

To the rear, the dining area provides a superb setting for both everyday meals and entertaining, with a log burner creating a warm and inviting focal point.

From here, the home flows naturally into the impressive kitchen, which was completed late last year to a particularly high specification.

Beautiful cabinetry is complemented by luxurious marble worktops and a matching marble splashback, creating a sophisticated and timeless finish.

A Baxi boiler provides modern practicality, while the overall quality of the kitchen makes this a genuine centrepiece of the home.

Ascending to the first floor, the split-level landing is filled with character and benefits from a skylight, allowing natural light to reach the upper level.

The roof has also been renewed, while the loft itself has been boarded to provide excellent additional storage. A Velux window within the loft further enhances the space and brings in natural light.

The accommodation includes three bedrooms, offering excellent flexibility for modern living.

Bedroom one is a particularly attractive principal bedroom overlooking the green space to the front and benefits from built-in storage alongside a beautiful decorative cast iron fireplace, adding further period charm.

Bedroom two also benefits from built-in wardrobes, while bedroom three is currently utilised as a dressing room, but could equally serve as a nursery, home office, guest room or additional bedroom depending on the needs of the next owner.

The bathroom is truly stunning and forms one of the property's standout features.

Beautifully appointed in a traditional style, it features a magnificent copper freestanding bathtub, a separate shower cubicle, traditional-style wash basin and low-level WC.

The combination of timeless fittings and thoughtful design creates a wonderfully luxurious space. Externally, the property continues to offer excellent practicality.

To the front is a charming forecourt garden with a block-paved pathway leading to the entrance, complemented by a wrought iron gate which adds to the property's traditional kerb appeal.

To the rear is an enclosed yard with direct access to the garage, which is fitted with a garage door.

The garage provides valuable additional storage and utility space and could be particularly useful for hobbies, workshop use or secure storage.

The yard itself also has a garage roller door, for improved access.

The property further benefits from uPVC sash windows, installed approximately two years ago, combining the characterful appearance of traditional sash windows with the benefits of modern glazing.

This is a truly special period home that has been lovingly and immaculately maintained by the current owners.

The combination of its late Victorian character, beautifully upgraded kitchen and bathroom, renewed roof, excellent storage and versatile bedroom accommodation makes it an exceptional opportunity for a wide range of buyers.
