A Victorian Gem with Modern Elegance

Step into timeless elegance with this stunning four-bedroom Victorian palisade villa, beautifully positioned on the ever popular Marstown Avenue. Presented by Hunters, this exquisite home seamlessly blends period charm with contemporary comfort, offering a lifestyle that’s as inviting as it is impressive.

From the moment you enter, the welcoming hallway sets the tone for what’s to come — warm, stylish, and full of character. The bay-fronted lounge exudes sophistication, while the spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area serves as the true heart of the home — perfect for entertaining family and friends in style. A utility room with WC adds everyday convenience without compromising on design.

Upstairs, you’ll find two generous double bedrooms, including the main bedroom complete with a hidden en suite shower, providing your own private sanctuary. A single bedroom and a beautifully finished family bathroom with a three-piece suite complete the first floor.

Venture up again to discover a fourth double bedroom, where French doors open onto a private balcony — the perfect place to unwind with a morning coffee or enjoy evening sunsets with panoramic views of the surrounding area.

This remarkable home perfectly captures the essence of Victorian character while offering all the comforts of modern living.

This charming villa has been lovingly cared for and offers spacious, flexible living across three floors and to truly appreciate the quality, space, and charm on offer, an internal viewing is highly recommended.
