Situated on The Wellsway, just a short distance above the hugely
popular Bear Flat, is this elegant 1920's semi detached property
set within a generous half acre plot. Built as a detached bungalow
in the 1920's, the property was then divided into two with a second
floor added sometime in the 1940's or 50's. The second floor
addition is in keeping with the original 1920's style with both
tall ceilings and picture rails. This impressive semi detached
family home is situated within a superb plot set back from the
Wellsway. The plot begins with a long sweeping driveway off
Wellsway takes you to a level 41ft x 33ft parking area with a
double garage beyond. The front driveway approach is flanked by a
generous lawn and woodland area with mature trees to the front just
inside the front wall. A canopied veranda to the front of the house
overlooks this front private setting. The property itself is
entered via a side door into a welcoming entrance hall that
includes a recessed under stair seating area, original oak strip
flooring and a stylish reproduction cast iron radiator. An elegant
dual aspect sitting room to the rear overlooks the gardens and
includes a marble hearth and timber surround gas fireplace and tall
ceilings with both coving and picture rails. The dining room to the
front of the house is also dual aspect offering light and airy
accommodation with an imposing stone mantelpiece and hearth. The
third reception room is currently used as a study and was once the
main entrance to the property with the original stained glass door
partially intact. This impressive room includes a real flame gas
fire set within a period cast iron fireplace with slate hearth. The
kitchen is situated towards the rear of the property and is
accessed of the main entrance hall. This well proportioned room
measures 15ft x 12ft and leads to a walk through lobby with doors
to both the pantry cupboard and the utility room which houses the
boiler for the gas central heating system. You enter the first
floor landing from the central winding staircase from the ground
floor entrance hall. A tall window to the front above the stairs
creates a light and airy landing space with access to all three
bedrooms and a superb 'Ripples' bathroom. The master bedroom to the
rear of the house offers an excellent vantage point to take in the
far reaching views. This well proportioned bedroom includes built
in wardrobes along one side with double glazed windows to both the
side and the rear. Bedroom two is also a double with built in
wardrobes and super views of the rear garden. The third bedroom to
the front houses the airing cupboard with fitted shelving cupboards
alongside. A tasteful contemporary bathroom has been fitted with
travertine floor and wall tiles, an extra deep bath with wall
mounted centre taps and a walk in shower enclosure with ceiling
mounted drench shower and a wall mounted hand held shower
attachment. Underfloor heating, a heated travertine seating area
and a freestanding elongated sink on a travertine base coupled with
high level box lighting creates a luxurious bathing environment.
The gardens have been carefully landscaped and seamlessly blend in
to the natural scenery. Beyond the garden are fields that extend
right the way down to Bloomfield Road. In addition to the front
garden/driveway approach is an extensive 127ft x 116ft max rear
garden that includes an elevated section with summerhouse seating
area and pond overlooking the lawn that use to be a tennis court.
The elevation of the plot makes for a wonderful vista to enjoy the
far reaching views of The Royal Crescent and beyond. This unique
property is located near to the popular Bear Flat area providing a
wide variety of local conveniences including a co-op, deli,
chemist, vintage antiquity shop, restaurant and gastro pub. Bath
