Description

83 Augustus Road is a 1970's detached house which has been extended in the past to create around 2,250 sq ft (209 sq.m.) of accommodation (including garaging) set over two floors. The property has undergone a partial refurbishment this year; some rooms have been replastered and redecorated and partially rewired, there are new doors throughout, new carpets/flooring to certain rooms, and a smart new kitchen has been installed.

The property is entered via a uPVC double glazed porch with inner front door leading in to the hallway. There is a cloakroom WC and a useful under stairs storage cupboard with control panel for the intruder alarm. The house has three reception rooms, including a large 'L' shaped sitting room which has sliding patio doors to the garden and a full height window taking advantage of the sunny southerly aspect.

The dining room is accessed from the hall as well as the kitchen and has a box bay window to the front and can comfortably accommodate a table for 8 people. The third reception room is a living room/snug and is a cosy 'L' shaped room to the rear of the house off the kitchen with a pleasant outlook over the garden through two large full-height windows.

On the first floor are four excellent bedrooms and a house bathroom. Bedroom 1 is particularly spacious and has fitted wardrobes and drawers and a dressing area with dormer window to the front and a small en suite shower room off. Bedroom 2 is well-proportioned and has a front-facing window and a built-in wardrobe. Bedroom 3 has been used as a study and has a fitted desk as well as a fitted wardrobe. Bedroom 4 is a single bedroom with a built-in wardrobe but also with a large loft room opening off which has power and lighting and makes for an ideal office, playroom, or teenager's "den".
