SUPERBLY RESTORED HERITAGE HOME

If you can imagine a time gone by where homemade lemonade and cucumber sandwiches were served on the veranda whilst croquet was played on the front lawn, then you can get a sense of what it may be like to be the lucky owners of magnificent Wicklow Avenue. This superbly restored 1920s heritage home in the heart of Croydon is nothing short of a masterpiece and has a colourful history adding to her charm.

Lovingly maintained this iconic home has glorious character features throughout including stunning polished floors, soaring 12ft high-ceilings, elegant sash windows and ornate original fireplaces in all the living areas as well as one bedroom. With three expansive living areas this is a home made for entertaining and will certainly be the place for the largest of families to make lifelong memories. The large and stylish American Oak kitchen is fit for families of any size and will become a place to congregate as you chat at the island bench or share a casual meal in the adjacent dining zone. There is an abundance of bench and storage space and stainless-steel appliances including double oven and dishwasher making life easy for the chef of the house. There is also an additional formal dining room where you can host dinner parties large or small whilst you enjoy the ambience of the crackling fire.

Accommodation comprises five generously sized bedrooms with robes (some with fireplaces) all offering sash windows and a truly unique character of their own. Positioned throughout the grandiose home they are serviced by two bathrooms – one with an exquisite clawfoot bath adding to its charm. An add-on to the original home has become a huge family-sized laundry, second bathroom and separate toilet zone.

Outside you will find private meandering pathways surrounded by lush gardens that are simply divine when the roses and hydrangeas are in bloom. There is also a rear alfresco zone that will be your happy place whether you are enjoying a quiet morning brew, summer barbeques with friends or intimate twilight dining. Additionally, a splendid front veranda with period features is a place to simply sit, relax and watch the world go by.

Further highlights of this one of a kind home include double garage with roller door, the advantages of a corner block, under house storage, split system heating/cooling, ceiling fans and ducted heating for seasonal comfort. This impressive property combines the grace and style of the 1920s with all the comforts of modern living. Add to this the location which means you can leave the car at home, it is truly a pleasure to call this place home. Do not miss out on your opportunity to own a unique slice of Croydon history
