This attractive semi-detached property is situated in a much sought after location just off Upper Garth Road and from its elevated position enjoys far reaching views across the Menai Straits and Porth Penryhn to include the Great Orme and the mountain ranges of Snowdonia. Being just a short walk away from the main university campus and the Victorian Pier, the location is also convenient for the city centre and backs onto Roman Camp, the site of an ancient hill top fort and now a peaceful wildlife haven with a mixture of woodland and open green spaces which is managed by the Woodland Trust and enjoys breathtaking views over the Menai Straits and towards the Isle of Anglesey.
Accommodation:
Having resided within the same family for over 70 years and now requiring modernisation, this spacious and characterful property provides an exciting opportunity to create a beautiful family home. Dating back to the late 1920’s the house still retains many of its original features to include parquet flooring, panelled doors, open fireplaces, picture rails and coving, a cast iron bath complemented by original black and white tiles and a large stained glass window to the half landing of an impressive split level staircase. A winding gravel pathway leads up through an attractively landscaped front garden planted with a wide variety of mature shrubs, bordered with privet hedging and leading to a small and level area of front lawn at the top of the garden from where the views can be enjoyed.
The main entrance door is situated at the side of the house and opens to a porch and hallway, from where doors radiate off to provide access to the living room, dining room, kitchen and breakfast room. The dining room has a large bay window to the front elevation which enjoys the far reaching views and the living room has French doors which open to a sun room, ideally positioned to take advantage of the outlook, whilst the kitchen and breakfast room are both at the rear of the house with the breakfast room also benefitting from a walk in pantry and fitted cupboard. A generous galleried landing has doors off to all the bedrooms, the bathroom, a separate WC and the airing cupboard. Bedrooms one and two both have windows to the front elevation enjoying the views, whilst bedrooms three and four overlook the garden at the rear of the property. A loft hatch in bedroom four provides access to a large roof space which would lend itself to conversion if required and could easily accommodate a generous bedroom with en-suite facilities.
Outside:
To the rear of the house is a small yard with some useful brick built outbuildings, a coal store, access to the front of the property and steps up to a lawn with well stocked borders and privet hedging to either side. Beyond the wall to the rear is a further area of garden which is currently owned by the neighbour and which is potentially available to purchase separately if more outside space is required. Situated just a short walk away, the property also benefits from a single garage en bloc with additional parking in front.

†Conditional auction
If the reserve is met or exceeded and the auction timer reaches zero, an exclusivity period begins in relation to that property. The successful bidder is contractually required to exchange on the property on or before the expiry of 20 working days from the end of the auction (unless otherwise stated in the "Other Key Info" section in the listing above). All properties sold by conditional auction are sold subject to a reservation fee which is clearly stated in the terms and conditions attached to the property and in the bidding box before a bid is placed. The reservation fee is payable in addition to the final purchase price and is received on a non-refundable basis, subject to the terms of the Reservation Agreement. To ensure that the successful bidder proceeds, the winning buyer is automatically charged a reservation fee and agrees prior to making their bid, to pay any outstanding amount of the property reservation fee immediately at the end of the auction. The auctioneer will be authorised to sign the reservation agreement on both the buyer’s and seller’s behalf. If by the seller’s act, exchange does not occur on or before the expiry of 20 working days from the end of the auction (unless otherwise stated in the "Other Key Info" section in the listing above), the reservation fee shall be fully refunded to the buyer. If the buyer fails to exchange on or before the expiry of 20 working days from the end of the auction (unless otherwise stated in the "Other Key Info" section in the listing above), they will forfeit the full amount of the reservation fee.Fees paid to the Auctioneer may be considered as part of the chargeable consideration for the property and be included in the calculation for stamp duty liability. Further clarification on this must be sought from your legal representative.
