Set on the top of Dobcroft Road in highly sought-after Ecclesall, this substantial mock-Tudor semi offers adaptable living across three floors and a large, landscaped garden. Character details — timber framing, bay window and period mouldings — sit alongside a contemporary, open-plan living kitchen with a central island and bi-fold doors opening to a generous entertaining terrace. The house totals about 2,722 sq ft and suits a growing family seeking space and easy access to top-rated local schools and green amenities.
The ground floor provides a formal sitting room, cloakroom, and a striking open-plan kitchen/family/dining area ideal for entertaining. On the first floor are the master bedroom with ensuite plus three further bedrooms and a luxury family bathroom. The second-floor fifth bedroom is large with twin Velux rooflights; planning permission is already granted to convert and extend this floor into two bedrooms and a shower room, creating a six-bedroom layout if required.
Practical benefits include excellent off-street parking, an integral store/garage, double glazing and gas central heating. The leasehold has around 207 years remaining. Note that the property is currently arranged as five bedrooms with two bathrooms, so the granted second-floor conversion is required to add an extra shower room and increased bedroom count. Council tax is described as expensive, and anyone considering changes should factor in the conversion works despite permissions being in place.
An internal viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, layout and garden setting. This home will particularly appeal to families wanting generous living space, excellent local schools and scope to increase bedroom accommodation with consent already secured.
