Fabulous Victorian home in Paignton
Woods Estate Agents is thrilled to take to the market this beautiful double-fronted, semi-detached Victorian property within an easy walking distance of all Preston's amenities and less than half a mile from the beach and South West Coast Path.
Inside is substantial, versatile, and has been beautifully extended and redecorated to combine the convenience of modern living with timeless character features including high ceilings, picture rails, wood flooring and fireplaces.
In the entrance hall, the stairs are painted in the colours of a rainbow. There's a reception room to the right, currently used as an artists' studio with a large bay window. There's a ground floor bathroom, and an inner hall offering loads of storage space. The heart of the property is the stunning open plan living space, which extends from the bay-fronted lounge left of the entrance hall, through the dining room to a fabulous modern orangery at the back of the house, then right into the kitchen. The lounge and dining room both feature the beautiful, opulent original cast iron Victorian fireplaces; the orangery has a vaulted ceiling and opens out into the garden; and the kitchen is fitted with shaker-style cabinetry and integrated appliances.
On a half landing is a cloakroom and large decorative window, and a second staircase from the landing leads to the principal bedroom suite on the second floor, with its large Velux windows with sea views, dressing area and ensuite bathroom.
All four bedrooms on the first floor are double. One is split into two areas to provide a dressing area and bedroom space; one has a basin and feature fireplace; and the other two have large bay windows with some sea views. There is a double shower cubicle and contemporary feature basin in the family shower room, and there's also a second kitchen/utility room.
The rear garden has been beautifully crafted and landscaped to provide a number of different private areas, nestled among lush greenery. The agents describe it as a 'charming garden oasis, a delightful blend of natural beauty and cosy charm, a perfect retreat for relaxation and tranquility'. There are gravelled areas, a stepping stone path, paving, and a pergola with vine, all surrounded by vibrant plants and trees, including two apple trees, a cherry tree, and palm trees, creating a serene atmosphere. To the side is a covered storage area, and a large double garage/carport, and to the front is a pretty gravelled courtyard garden and driveway.
