The property 31 Carrick Road is a handsome white-rendered family home, sensitively extended by the current owners to provide almost 1,800 sq ft of light-filled accommodation arranged over two floors, combining modern amenities with period features including leaded glazing, high ceilings and original fireplaces, creating a warm and comfortable home.
Designed with family living and entertaining in mind, with a versatile layout, the ground floor offers elegant neutral décor and flows from a welcoming reception hall with useful integrated storage. It includes a sitting room with a cast iron fireplace and front aspect bay window, and a spacious vaulted drawing room with feature electric fire. The drawing room offers wraparound windows with French doors opening onto the rear terrace, and double doors leading to the partvaulted kitchen/breakfast room.
This generous space is designed for both style and functionality, featuring flagstone flooring, a range of wall and base units, complementary worktops and splashbacks, a Belfast sink, and modern integrated appliances. French doors provide a seamless connection to the terrace, enhancing the opportunity for indoor-outdoor living. Both the drawing room and kitchen/breakfast room benefit from underfloor heating and velux roof windows (all recently replaced), ensuring an abundance of natural light throughout.
The ground floor accommodation is completed by a double bedroom (or additional reception room) with a bay window and built-in wardrobes and a neighbouring contemporary wet room tiled by Mandarin Stone.
On the first floor a split-level landing gives access to a principal bedroom with double doors to an en suite shower room, two further double bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes and one with a deep raised bay with feature glazing, and a family bathroom with corner bath and integrated storage. The loft is accessed on the landing via pull down ladder, and is boarded for storage.
