Description

Positioned at the end of the terrace on the ever-popular Melody Road and backing onto the picturesque Trefoil Road, this handsome Victorian home comes to the market for the first time in over 60 years. Rich in history and brimming with potential, it offers a rare opportunity to restore and reimagine a home of significant character and scale.

Set behind a classic bay frontage, the ground floor hosts a generous double reception room, each part with its own entrance, original fireplaces, and the iconic Melody Road bay window. The rear room opens directly onto a 41ft west-facing garden, offering outstanding scope for a side return and rear extension (STPP). With a lowered kerb and rear access, the garden is also configured to accommodate off-street parking or a garage.

A separate dining room and kitchen sit to the rear, with garden access, also offering an original external WC. On the lower ground floor, a cellar spans toward the front of the house, ideal for storage.

Upstairs are four well-proportioned bedrooms, a WC on the first floor, and a bathroom on the second – complete with a characterful cast iron bath. A generous loft space above offers further scope for extension or reconfiguration, subject to the usual consents.

This home also benefits from rear and side access, including a gate to Trefoil Road and access along the passageway behind the terrace.

With its rich heritage, elegant proportions, and tremendous scope, this unique home offers one of the most exciting renovation opportunities in the area.
