"A fine example of one of these substantial detached Edwardian houses in this highly sought after location on the south side of town.

Description

54 Madeira Park is one of the earlier, more substantial, detached houses in this very popular road. Having benefitted from up dating over time in a sympathetic style, the property now provides excellent family accommodation, including two fine traditional reception rooms and a well appointed study, all featuring period fireplaces, high ceilings, and decorative mouldings. In addition, there is the all important, spacious, modern open plan kitchen breakfast family room, with timber flooring and a wood burning stove, incorporating a large orangery extension, which adds extra light and opens out to the garden. This is well planned, with paved terracing, a lawned area and rose borders with tall laurel hedging along the boundaries. The kitchen is modern and minimalist in style with Corian worktops, AEG ovens, an integrated Bosch dishwasher and a Smeg five burner gas hob.

Upstairs there are six bedrooms arranged over two floors, together with three modern bath shower rooms, with one being en suite to one of the first floor bedrooms.
