A delightful semi-detached family house in the heart of Trinity with off-street parking and private gardens to the front and rear.

Description

97 Trinity Road is a charming semi-detached family house offering spacious, comfortable and bright accommodation set over two floors with a large attic level above.

The property benefits from plenty of natural light throughout the day with both east and west aspects, and has a particularly pleasant westerly outlook from the rear garden.

The property retains much of its original period charm with a range of delightful features (including working shutters in most rooms), and caters superbly for family life with excellent living and reception space throughout the ground floor, and up to six comfortable bedrooms.

The property is set well back from the road, with a delightful front garden, and is approached via a driveway with off-street parking for multiple cars together with access to the double garage.

Upon entering, one is greeted with a spacious vestibule beyond which is a bright entrance hall off which can be found the ground floor accommodation; to the left with a bay window overlooking the front garden and driveway is the living room with beautiful cornicing and ornate fireplace. To the other side of the hall is the family sitting room with a gas fireplace and door leading to the rear garden. This room could also be used as a sixth bedroom or a study.

The dining room is located further along the hall and, again, features beautiful period detailing and a pleasant view over the front garden.

The kitchen is well-appointed, featuring numerous wall and base units and ample surface space. A useful utility room is located to the rear off the kitchen, with a door leading to the enclosed rear garden.

Also on the ground floor is a shower room, an under stair store cupboard together with a separate store room.

The staircase rises to the first floor landing which is flooded with natural light from the cupola above. To the right is the bay-windowed principal bedroom with built in wardrobes.

There are three further double bedrooms as well as a room currently used as a study that would serve well as an additional bedroom or could be turned in to an en-suite, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

There is, in addition, a family bathroom.

The property benefits from a large floored attic which currently offers fantastic storage space but which could be converted to additional accommodation, subject to the necessary consents.

Externally, to the rear is a paved patio area which leads to a beautifully manicured, mature rear garden mostly laid to lawn with flower and vegetable beds bordering.

From the patio area there is a double glazed door providing access to the generous double garage, which has upper level storage. There is scope to divide the garage to create a garden room, office or home gym, subject to acquiring the required permissions.
