A beautiful 5 bedroom detached 1920s house occupying a 0.25 acre plot within the highly desirable Lucastes Conservation area just a 10 minute walk of the railway station and town centre.

The owners bought the property about 20 years ago and have significantly enlarged the house to create a wonderful and spacious family home which retains numerous character features yet has several modern twists and sympathetic modernisation. The footprint of the house is far deeper than it is wide making it very deceptive in size from initial appearance and has spacious rooms on both levels.

Lucastes Avenue has long been regarded one of the best addresses in the town due to its close proximity to the railway station, excellent local schools, the leisure centre, the town centre and the Blunts Wood & Paige's Meadow Nature reserve.

The grounds are another particular feature with plenty of private driveway parking and an integral garage with access leading to a fabulous and level rear garden with a full width terrace, large expanse of lawn and a timber chalet at the bottom end, which is used as a gymnasium and could make way for a home office/fitness studio.

Services. Mains gas, electricity, drainage and water. Solar - 8 x 375 Watt panels on roof plus 2 x Giv Energy batteries providing 16.4 kW hours of power all year round.
