This beautifully presented three bedroom Victorian home, offered with no upward chain, is perfectly situated in the heart of South Knighton, on the tree lined Sidney Road. Designed with meticulous care by the current owner, the house boasts a thoughtfully reconfigured layout that creates a series of elegant, harmoniously connected rooms, all decorated in a soft, neutral colour palette. The home retains much of its original character, with soaring ceilings, Minton floor tiles, and generously proportioned sash windows, all forming a perfect backdrop for modern design touches that complement the building s original bones. The north facing garden is impeccably maintained and features a variety of mature shrubbery, offering immediate privacy from neighbouring properties.

Upon entering, you are greeted by a wide entrance hall with the original Minton flooring, which leads to two spacious reception rooms. The main reception room, located at the front of the house, features a large single glazed sash window that floods the space with natural light, while a cast iron feature fireplace and original picture rails enhance the room s period charm. The second reception room, centrally located, is beautifully decorated and opens onto the north facing garden through single glazed timber doors. This room also has a cast iron feature fireplace, adding to it s welcoming feel. Oak framed doors lead to an extended shaker style breakfast kitchen at the rear of the property. The kitchen has been tastefully refurbished with a cottage like aesthetic, featuring blue tiled splash backs, ample space for appliances, and plenty of eye level and base level storage units topped with wooden work surfaces. The clever redesign has also created space for a utility room and a downstairs WC, with a side door providing convenient access to the rear garden.

The deceptively spacious first floor landing opens onto three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The largest bedroom, located at the front of the house, is bathed in natural light from its single glazed windows, which are fitted with bespoke shutter blinds. This room also includes fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom, a spacious double, is centrally positioned and offers sufficient room for all necessary furniture. The third bedroom, located at the rear of the first floor, is ideally suited as a single bedroom or home office. Completing the first floor is a stylish, three piece family bathroom. Outside, the property offers a private, low maintenance, paved courtyard style garden surrounded by established shrubbery and flower borders. On street parking is available directly in front of the house.

Additional features include a newly installed Ideal combi boiler fitted in 2023 . Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the exceptional finish, generous living space, and prime location that this charming property offers.
