Property description

PROPERTY SUMMARY A large family home of generous proportions, with plenty of living space and a wonderful welcoming atmosphere. It sits in a desirable, rather exclusive residential area which is tucked just one road away from Eastern Parade and the historic Victorian waterfront. The accommodation is perfectly suited for family life, for those who like to entertain as it has five bedrooms, two elegant reception rooms as well as an extensive games room incorporating bar and den on the lower ground floor. The rear garden has a feeling of privacy with its high mature hedges and is accessible from the fully fitted kitchen/breakfast room via bi-fold doors. Having high ceilings, original feature surround fireplaces, ceiling covings and high skirting boards, 'Elysia' provides flexible accommodation for families, home workers or those who need space to entertain. Being within easy access to Eastern Parade, Canoe Lake and the boutique shops in Albert Road as well as the bustling entertainment area of Gunwharf Quays, early internal viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate both the accommodation and location on offer.
