Property description

17 Julian Road is a fabulous family house, arranged over four floors and providing substantial family accommodation; with generously proportioned rooms and a light south facing garden. The current owners have sympathetically refurbished the house over a number of years of their ownership, and there is a deep sense of quality and craftsmanship – with beautiful period features such as detailed ceiling plasterwork, shuttered sash windows and retained period fireplaces. The lower ground floor, which previously was a self-contained apartment, now boasts a full width kitchen / family room – with twin doors leading out to the south facing garden. Wide door frames open up from the hallway and give access to the dining room opposite, complete with bay fronted windows. This floor still benefits from its own entrance, and at the end of the hallway is a fitted bathroom – ideal for wet dog walkers / mountain bikers or after games school children. Upstairs, the hall floor provides a magnificent foot print, with stunning full-width through reception rooms to the front comprising the drawing room & sitting room. Like much of the house, these rooms are flooded with natural light and with exposed wooden floorboards, tall shuttered sash windows and a marble fireplace exude charm and character. A stunning suite of rooms to enjoy and entertain in. To the rear is an elegant 20’ “library”, or family room, overlooking the rear garden from twin sash windows and complete with a beautiful marble fireplace. A lovely room to relax in and a perfect family space. Adjacent to the library is the former kitchen, now a useful kitchenette and utility room.Above, over the top two floors are five generous double bedrooms. Bedrooms one and two are especially well-proportioned, and along with the guest bedroom (bedroom three) on the first floor share a large family bathroom complete with a separate walk-in shower. In addition, there is a superb linen cupboard, and the landing and stairwell are lit by a stunning copula above. Over the second floor are two further double bedrooms which share a charming shower room. Bedroom four has built in wardrobes, as well as easy access to extensive eaves storage. Bedroom five meanwhile has a light dual aspect and further built-in cupboard space. Outside, the house is approached via a wide side path leading to the handsome front door. A side gate leads to the delightful rear garden, complete with a paved dining terrace and generous lawn with mature borders and a high degree of privacy. Fully enclosed, the garden is south facing and an ideal family space. To the front, the house has off-street parking to the front of the garage, which is integrated to the house with access into the lower ground floor.Overall, this is a stunning house – presented in excellent condition - which has been a much loved home to its current owners. It enjoys a generous but not overbearing footprint, with beautifully proportioned rooms, a sunny and private rear garden and the benefit of private parking.
