Description A fantastic family home occupying a highly sought-after and convenient city location, this deceptively spacious bay-fronted property offers well-proportioned accommodation arranged over three floors, together with a particularly attractive south-facing garden and views across the city.

The house retains a wealth of character and period charm, including attractive original fireplaces, exposed wooden flooring and the elegant proportions associated with properties of this era.

The current owner has maintained the property to a good standard, creating a comfortable and welcoming home that combines its period character with the space and practicality required for modern family living.

The ground floor provides an excellent amount of living and entertaining space, with two generous reception rooms offering flexibility for both formal and informal use.

To the rear is a particularly impressive 25ft kitchen/breakfast/family room, which provides a wonderful hub to the home and is ideally suited to family life, entertaining and everyday dining.

On the first floor there are three good-sized double bedrooms, providing ample accommodation for a growing family, together with a family bathroom.

A staircase continues to the second floor where there is a further double bedroom with its own en-suite shower room, making this an ideal arrangement for older children, guests or those requiring a little more privacy.

Outside, the property benefits from a lovely south-facing rear garden, which is well stocked with a variety of established plants and shrubs.

A raised patio provides an excellent space for outdoor dining and enjoying the sunshine, whilst rear access adds further convenience.

The garden offers a surprisingly private and attractive outdoor space considering the property's central city setting.

Overall, this is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a substantial and characterful period home in a highly convenient location, combining generous accommodation, attractive original features, a fantastic family kitchen and a sunny garden, whilst being ideally placed for access to the many amenities and facilities the city has to offer.
