191 Mayfield Road is an attractive four-bedroom Edwardian detached home, with a substantial private rear garden, off-road parking and a garage. Offering spacious and flexible living across two floors, this handsome family home retains many of its original features. Providing a wealth of character and charm, the property now requires some upgrading and modernisation to realise its full potential, making it perfectly suited for growing families or those seeking a substantial home with room to entertain.
Approached via a dual private driveway, the ground floor welcomes you with a bright central hallway, leading to a generously proportioned living room with access to the sunroom, which enjoys a pleasant outlook to the rear garden. A formal dining room connects seamlessly with the well-appointed kitchen and utility area. The ground floor also includes a WC, cloakroom, and access to the integral garage and adjacent storage area. Upstairs, the property benefits from four double bedrooms and a family bathroom together with ample storage cupboards.
The property sits on a substantial plot, with a private front garden and pathway providing a great first impression to the home. The integrated parking offers excellent storage for home items or two cars. There is ample off-road parking accessed via iron gates to the front. To the rear, a paved area borders the house, and a laid lawn is to the rear. There is a range of mature plantings and trees within the plot, and a greenhouse and garden shed offer great potential to modernise external storage and growing space.
