"OPEN DAY SATURDAY 13th JUNE 12.00 to 16.00" Book in now to view this exceptional home.

Perched at the end of a Victorian terrace, this carefully designed modern home makes clever use of Oakland Road's gentle incline to achieve its three storey layout. The end of terrace location permits double aspect rooms throughout, with intelligent window arrangements maximising energy efficiency. To the front & rear, the garden design blends clean lines and surfaces which open up the compact space, with well defined planting beds hosting varieties of fruit, nuts & herbs.

Set back from the street, the front of the house is approached via a wide brush-finished pale concrete terrace. A corten steel planter with two espaliered apple stepover trees and a variety of different mint plants runs along the perimeter. The house's simple brick façade is punctuated by bold aluminium-framed glazing and brown-painted wooden panels, a pairing that sets the tone for the considered interiors beyond.

The house is beautifully lit by swathes of glazing throughout. On entering, light streams into the hallway from the stairwell above and the living spaces adjacent. A downstairs WC lies to one side, while discreet cupboards line the other. Short oak boards underfoot with discreet shadow gaps exemplify the thoughtful design touches throughout.

A sightline from the front door guides towards the open-plan kitchen and living area beyond. Minimal coffee-coloured cabinetry in the kitchen houses integrated appliances and is topped by a sleek Lapitec worktop made from 100% natural sintered stone. A dining table is currently arranged opposite, in front of slender Cortizo SL20 sliding doors to the garden beyond. Come evening, the rear glazing becomes a mirror-like surface, creating an inviting space for cooking and sociable dining. Ambient lighting set within the walls is controlled by a dimmer switch.

Towards the front is the living space, bounded to one side by a generous bookcase. A large bay window frames the room, and an open panel links the sightlines back towards the Hall, creating a seamless, open plan arrangement.

A white powder-coated steel staircase with oak treads reaches up to the first floor, where there are two bedrooms, one double and one single, each with built in wardrobes. The single bedroom is presently used as an office and has a long built-in desk. Both rooms have dual-aspect Velfac windows and slim T22 radiators. A bathroom is also located on this floor, finished in similar cappuccino hues to the kitchen. The bath is clad in a high-pressure laminate by Trespa, and the room is warmed by underfloor heating. Just off the first-floor landing is a handy laundry cupboard.

The main bedroom and its en-suite shower-room occupy the top floor and are set beneath an expressive sloping ceiling. A large window, framing views over the leafy street, illuminates the room, with a skylight in the roof above adding to the bright and airy ambience. Built-in wardrobes, minimalist bookshelves and copious under eaves storage make clever use of the plan. A tiled en suite bathroom is adjacent, with a walk-in rainfall shower set beneath another skylight.

Outdoor Space

The rear garden borders the street adjacent so is open, well lit and surrounded by trees. It is divided into three spaces. Immediately beyond the large sliding doors which separate it from the kitchen dining area, a brick terrace creates an outdoor dining area with ample space for dining table and chairs. To the rear, framed by hazelnut tree, a planting bed is give over to a variety of herbs; rosemary, sage, lemon grass, thyme, lavender and marjoram. Between the two, a tiled patio has a concealed access gate to the street, allowing for easy access for bicycles.
