This attractive bay-fronted,1920’s semi-detached house on Harvey Goodwin Avenue has been extended, remodelled and improved to provide modern family accommodation over three floors, extending to 1410 sqft in total.

A single storey rear extension was added in 1984 and later remodelled to create an open plan living/dining space. A well-designed and spacious loft conversion was built in 2016 and double-glazed windows to the front elevation were replaced in 2018, retaining the original stained-glass panels.

A cosy seating area connects to a spacious dining area.

Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to a bathroom and three spacious bedrooms. There is a storage cupboard off the landing area, which was originally a WC and could be converted to a shower room, if needed.

The principal bedroom is located on the second floor and provides clever storage solutions, an ensuite bathroom with a separate shower cubicle and French doors to a Juliet balcony.

Outside, the property is set behind a front garden with iron gates opening to a paved hardstanding area and timber gates leading to a side storage area. A private and beautifully established rear garden broadens towards the end and provides lots of colour and scent through well-stocked borders of various plants, shrubs and herbs.
