Skilfully extended & beautifully refurbished Victorian bay fronted property

Description
33 Marshall Road is an end terrace bay fronted Victorian property, built of Cambridge brick elevations beneath a slate roof with mainly sash windows. The property extends to 1,082 sq ft with much improved, flexible accommodation laid out over ground and first floors. The house is accessed via an original stained glass front door with matching fan light over, into a reproduction Edwardian style tiled hallway. The two reception rooms have been combined to form a through living/sitting and playroom and has attractive herringbone solid oak flooring. The wide bay window has custom plantation shutters, along with an open cast iron fireplace with decorative tiled slips, hearth, recessed cabinetry and book shelving.

The kitchen dining room is now part vaulted and extends the full width of the property, and has four Velux skylights. There is a comprehensive range of bespoke painted timber cabinetry with wood block work surfaces and comprises twin doors to a larder/pantry/appliance cupboard, deep pan drawers and a freestanding twin oven cooking range, integrated Miele dish washer and space for American style fridge/freezer. There is a separate cupboard with plumbing and ventilation for a ‘stacked washer and drier’. A cloakroom/WC and under stairs storage cupboard completes the ground floor.

There are three bedrooms off the vaulted skylit landing, including two doubles, both with decorative fireplaces. The main bedroom extends the full width of the property and has a recessed wardrobe. During the extension, the sellers created a large, marble tiled shower room, with Velux skylight, twin basins inset to a bespoke marble counter and electric underfloor heating.

The property still offers potential to extend into the loft space if more bedroom accommodation is required, subject to the necessary consents being granted. The property, which has a modern gas fired central heating system in situ, is well presented and offered with no onward chain, and can be seen in greater detail on the attached floorplans.
