Victorian and purpose built with a "proper" hallway, the ground floor, with two separate sitting rooms, also presents a cleverly improved vaulted kitchen and a timeless modern bathroom. A useful "lean to" utility area has seen the addition of plumbing for washing machines and white goods as well as a low level wash basin (for dog washing maybe?). With superb and quite sympathetic attention to detail, this much loved and very attractive home benefits from what much of Earlsdon lacks; a very impressive and quite substantial, private and mature garden! OVERVIEW The addition of an attractive UPVC porch is both practical and aesthetic and leads into a welcoming hallway. The front sitting room is a fine rectangular space complimented perfectly by the wider dining room to the rear. The dining room has a superb period style fireplace and provides direct access into the kitchen. The kitchen, cleverly vaulted and with plenty of light and style leads through to both a rear lobby with the bathroom beyond and a wooden framed "lean to" to the side return. The bathroom, with a white suite and grey grouted white tiling is both timeless and sympathetic. Upstairs both bedrooms are impressive double rooms which are wider than the ground floor accommodation below (as they sit above the alleyway between houses). Externally the gardens are substantial indeed. The immediate patio area from the kitchen has seen the addition of a wooden framed lean to. An ideal and practical area to dry clothes and store, the area also sees the benefit of an outside sink and plumbing and electric points for washing machines and tumble dryers. The private gated garden beyond is mature and very generous. With hedge boundaries, the garden, in the majority laid to lawn, also sees sitting, growing, storage and working areas. A certain "turn key" home which is sure to impress. "For further information on school catchment areas, broadband speeds and lots more, please download our full brochure or request one at !" THE LOCATION Earlsdon, often considered one of the most desirable suburbs in South Coventry, offers a wealth of local amenities as well as easy access to main roads and the train station. Providence Street, sits only a stones through from the main street itself. With well regarded primary schools within very easy reach, Earlsdon has always been a popular location for families. The close proximity of the beautiful War Memorial Park and Spencer Park offer certain appeal with private tennis and golf clubs also situated within the suburb itself. The train station, a short walk away for many, allows an easy morning commute, sometimes in less than one hour, to London Euston and the city centre is also only a fifteen-twenty minute walk from most Earlsdon addresses. For dining and socializing, coffee shops, bars and restaurants abound. With its own theatre, library and social club Earlsdon really does offer a community spirit that's hard to match. ## Property Photos - ![Direct frontage](/listings/photos/152144444/1632414) - Direct frontage - ![Rear gardens](/listings/photos/152144444/1632415) - Rear gardens - ![Superb refitted kitchen](/listings/photos/152144444/1632416) - Superb refitted kitchen - ![Dining room](/listings/photos/152144444/1632417) - Dining room - ![Front sitting room](/listings/photos/152144444/1632418) - Front sitting room - ![Kitchen with pitched roof & window light](/listings/photos/152144444/1632419) - Kitchen with pitched roof & window light - ![Dining room heading towards kitchen](/listings/photos/152144444/1632420) - Dining room heading towards kitchen - ![Hallway & front sitting room](/listings/photos/152144444/1632421) - Hallway & front sitting room - ![Sitting room](/listings/photos/152144444/1632422) - Sitting room - ![Sitting room detail](/listings/photos/152144444/1632423) - Sitting room detail - ![Dining room detail](/listings/photos/152144444/1632424) - Dining room detail - ![Rear gardens](/listings/photos/152144444/1632425) - Rear gardens - ![Dining room](/listings/photos/152144444/1632426) - Dining room - ![Rear gardens](/listings/photos/152144444/1632427) - Rear gardens - ![Bedroom two](/listings/photos/152144444/1632428) - Bedroom two - ![Frontage](/listings/photos/152144444/1632429) - Frontage - ![Ground floor bathroom](/listings/photos/152144444/1632430) - Ground floor bathroom - ![Bedroom one](/listings/photos/152144444/1632431) - Bedroom one - ![Bedroom one](/listings/photos/152144444/1632432) - Bedroom one - ![Close up frontage](/listings/photos/152144444/1632433) - Close up frontage - ![Kitchen detail](/listings/photos/152144444/1632434) - Kitchen detail - ![Lean to utility area](/listings/photos/152144444/1632435) - Lean to utility area ## Floorplans - ![27 Providence Street Complete](/listings/photos/152144444/1632436) - 27 Providence Street Complete ## EPC Graphs - ![EPC](/listings/photos/152144444/1632437) - EPC - ![EE](/listings/photos/152144444/1632438) - EE - ![EI](/listings/photos/152144444/1632439) - EI ## FENSA Certificates This property has 1 FENSA certificate(s) on record. ### FENSA Certificate #13262219 - **Address:** 27 Providence Street, COVENTRY, CV5 6ED - **Certificate Issued:** 26/11/2018 - **Work Completed:** 14/10/2018 - **Items:** 1 window(s), 1 door(s) ## Sales History *Recorded sales for this property.
