5 Parkside Road forms part of an attractive Victorian terrace located within walking distance of the town centre. Lovingly owned by the current vendor for over 40 years, this spacious five-bedroom home offers versatile living accommodation, including four large reception rooms, front and rear gardens, and a detached garage. Rich in period charm, the property retains a wealth of original features such as decorative fireplaces, picture rails, coving, and ceiling roses. Now ready for a new chapter, it offers a fantastic opportunity for new owners to modernise and personalise, creating a characterful yet contemporary family home.

Stepping through the front door, you’re greeted by a spacious entrance hall which provides access to the main reception rooms: the living room, dining room, and sitting room, with stairs rising to the first floor. The living room is particularly inviting, featuring a large front-facing window, a fireplace with tiled inset and gas coal fire and two fireside alcoves with cupboards. The room is finished with elegant period detailing including coving, a picture rail and a ceiling rose.

The sitting room, equally spacious, mirrors the character of the living room with a large window to the front, another charming fireplace with tiled inset and gas coal fire and matching alcove cupboards. It too is finished with traditional Victorian touches.

At the rear of the house, the dining room enjoys a pleasant garden aspect and includes a feature fireplace and useful built-in cupboard. From here, a door leads into the utility room, which is fitted with a range of wall and base units, an inset sink and drainer, and co-ordinated tiled walls and flooring. This space also offers plumbing for a washing machine and room for coats and shoes. A door leads to the ground floor shower room, comprising a large walk-in shower, a vanity unit with wash hand basin and WC.

The kitchen is well-equipped with a range of wall and base units, complementary work surfaces with inset sink with drainer. The space is designed to accommodate a Rangemaster-style oven and an American-style fridge/freezer, with part-tiled walls and floors completing the look. From the kitchen, a door opens into the conservatory, which overlooks the rear garden and features a tiled floor, offering a lovely spot to relax or entertain.

Upstairs on the first floor are five bedrooms and a wet room. The principal bedroom is a spacious double with a front aspect and fitted wardrobes with overhead storage. Bedroom two is also a generous double with views over the rear garden. Bedrooms three and five both enjoy rear aspects and are double rooms, while bedroom four, facing the front, includes fitted furniture with wardrobes and overhead cupboards. The wet room is fitted with a shower, WC and wash hand basin and is finished with panelled walls, a heated towel rail and a window.

The second floor features a large attic room with a Velux roof light, two useful storage cupboards and under-eaves storage, offering excellent flexibility for a home office, playroom, or hobby space.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The front garden is low maintenance with flagstone paving, flower borders and a central flower feature. The rear garden includes a patio area, a lawn surrounded by mature flowers and trees, an outdoor tap and access to the detached garage, which benefits from power, lighting and an up-and-over door. This property offers both the space and potential to create a truly special family home.
