This substantial period detached house (approx. 2,835 sq ft) sits on a large private plot on Hope Street, Melbourne, offering extensive family accommodation and far‑reaching countryside views. The principal suite includes a dressing room and luxury en‑suite; three further double bedrooms, a family bathroom and an additional shower room provide flexible sleeping arrangements. Ground‑floor living is generous with a large dining kitchen under a vaulted ceiling, two/three reception rooms and an extensive conservatory that opens onto landscaped patios and lawn.
Practical features include a double garage with first‑floor playroom/exercise room, off‑road parking for several vehicles behind an electric timber gate, a utility room and a newly fitted Worcester boiler. Majority double glazing and gas central heating support comfortable year‑round living. The garden, decked terrace and ornamental pond create private outdoor entertaining space with notable views across open countryside.
Important factors to note: the building is a solid brick, pre‑1900 construction and external walls are assumed uninsulated, which may affect running costs and could require insulation works if desired. Council tax is described as expensive. Parts of the conservatory have a polycarbonate roof and not all glazing is original double glazing. The property is approached via a shared tarmac drive before a private gated drive—buyers should consider access arrangements. All furniture is available for sale if required.
This home will suit buyers seeking a sizable and characterful family property with scope for improvement rather than those wanting a low‑maintenance new build. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, layout and the far‑reaching views from the principal rooms.
