About this home
A fantastic three-bedroom semi-detached home offering over 1,000 sq. ft. of spacious family accommodation in the popular village of Lees. With a bay-fronted living room, large dining room, conservatory, three well-proportioned bedrooms, downstairs WC, generous established garden, driveway and detached garage, this is an excellent all-round family home with both space inside and out.
Occupying a generous plot in the popular village of Lees, this beautifully presented three-bedroom semi-detached home offers an excellent combination of space, character and practicality, making it an ideal choice for growing families, professional couples or buyers looking for a home they can enjoy for many years to come.
Providing approximately 1,017 sq. ft. of accommodation, the property is noticeably larger than many traditional three-bedroom homes in the area. From the moment you step inside, there is a real sense of space, with generous reception rooms, three well-proportioned bedrooms and an excellent rear garden creating a fantastic all-round family home.
The ground floor begins with a welcoming entrance hallway leading into a spacious front living room. A large bay window brings plenty of natural light into the room, while the feature fireplace creates an attractive focal point and gives the space a warm, traditional feel.
To the rear is a separate dining room of particularly generous proportions, providing ample space for a large dining table and making this a superb room for family meals, entertaining and larger gatherings. The dining room flows through into the conservatory, adding another versatile living area and creating a wonderful connection between the house and garden.
The kitchen is positioned towards the rear of the property and offers a practical range of fitted units and workspace, with access towards the rear of the home. An extremely useful ground-floor WC further enhances the practicality of the accommodation.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three bedrooms rather than one dominant bedroom and two significantly compromised rooms. The principal bedroom measures approximately 13'7" x 10'11", while the second bedroom is another excellent double at approximately 10'11" x 11'1". Bedroom three provides the flexibility required for a child's bedroom, nursery or home office.
The family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.
Externally is where 39 Phillimore Street offers another significant advantage.
The rear garden is generous, established and wonderfully private in feel, with extensive lawn, mature planting and seating areas providing plenty of space for children, entertaining, gardening or simply enjoying the warmer months. The conservatory overlooks the garden, allowing the outside space to become a genuine extension of the home.
There is also off-road parking and a detached garage, providing valuable additional parking, storage and potential workshop space.
The attractive traditional frontage, bay window and generous plot give the house plenty of kerb appeal and immediately distinguish it from many properties within this price bracket.
