LOOKS can be deceptive, particularly when it comes to a terraced Victorian house in the heart of Jericho.
Despite its traditional-looking exterior, number 30 Great Clarendon Street has been extended and renovated to give it an extremely contemporary interior.
The sitting room, measuring around 32ft x 11ft and running almost the entire length of the house, includes French doors that lead to the patio and back garden.
An open-plan style kitchen/breakfast room includes a fully-fitted kitchen with Neff appliances, granite work tops and has a door from the dining area to the garden. There is also a downstairs cloakroom and a separate utility room which leads through to a bicycle store.
Upstairs are four bedrooms, including the master which includes fitted wardrobes, air conditioning and an en-suite shower room. One of the other bedrooms also has air conditioning.
The family bathroom includes a bath and a separate shower and soft lighting.
At the back of the house, is a lawn with planted borders and a small patio area.
The front of the house includes double-glazed sash windows and an integrated cycle store measuring almost 8ft sq, which can be accessed from the utility room and the street.
Lizanne Simmons, of agents Penny & Sinclair, said: “Having personally dealt with the sale of the property to the current owners in October 2007, I was excited to see what work they had carried out on it. I was amazed to see how it had change to a contemporary and high-quality family home.
“The property has a number of thoughtful touches such as oak floors, category six wiring and air conditioning in some rooms.
“One of the most unusual things about this house is that there are only a handful of properties of this size in Jericho.
“An added bonus is that, whilst with a typical terraced house, many householders struggle with the problem of what to do about bikes and bins, this property has its own store area which is ideal for that purpose.”
Number 30 Great Clarendon Street is on the market for £795,000. For more information, contact Penny & Sinclair on 01865 318013 or visit www.pennyandsinclair.co.uk
