Fifth Road, Newbury, Berkshire, RG14

A handsome Edwardian 4 bedroom family home which has been intelligently extended and remodelled by the current owners. Situated in a highly sought after location just a short distance from Newbury town centre.

Dating back to the 1902, the current owners have sympathetically extended this beautifully presented Edwardian property, creating a perfect blend of period features and modern day living.
The driveway offers ample parking in front of the house and double garage, neatly screening the house with a mixture of planting, including an established Magnolia tree.

The handsome front elevation shows the original brickwork and bay windows which benefit the drawing room on the ground floor, as well as the principal bedroom. The garage to the side of the property and full length 2 storey extension at the back of the house have been created by the current owners.

On entering the property, the drawing room is at the front of the house, a spacious room with a wood burning stove and panelled walls, behind this is the open plan kitchen/breakfast/family room which has been designed with a central island. The kitchen is fully appointed and has doors leading to the rear garden. Beyond the kitchen is a cloak room and inner hallway leading to a playroom/study, this connects to the back of the garage which has a utility area neatly positioned at the back of the room.

On the first floor, the impressive principal bedroom which forms part of the original house goes through to the extension comprising of a separate dressing room connecting to the en suite. There is an additional bedroom and family bathroom. On the second floor, there are two bedrooms and a wc and basin.

The garden is mostly laid to lawn and has been landscaped to create a large terrace which wraps around the property and some raised flower beds, in addition to a mixture of plants and hedges.
