Detached house for sale in Francis Avenue, Rhos On Sea, Colwyn Bay, Conwy LL28

A truly unique opportunity to purchase this simply stunning, prestigious, detached family residence in a highly sought after area of Rhos on Sea. Situated within incredibly close proximity of the promenade (which has all been completely rejuvenated in recent months) and a beautiful sandy beach, this home offers spacious family living in an ideal location close to the sea, all local facilities and main transport links.
This is a substantial home, with very well presented and maintained accommodation over two storeys with additional cellar rooms below. To the ground floor there is a large enclosed porch leading through to the reception hall, charming fitted National Trust, solid wood-faced kitchen, Lounge, Dining Room and Breakfast Room. Incredibly useful utility room with integrated door through to the garage, ground floor shower room and access to the cellar.
To the first floor, the extensive living accommodation affords; Master bedroom with en-suite shower room, five further bedrooms (four being doubles & one used as a study) and a splendid, original art deco family bathroom with modern shower reflecting the design & separate WC..
The cellar rooms provide excellent additional storage space which could also be used as a workshop. The attached garage is well maintained and offers ample parking and electric up and over door.
Perhaps one of the most impressive features has to be the vast garden to the rear, exquisitely landscaped and sectioned into seating areas, play areas, lawn, pond, fruit and vegetable growing area along with patios to enjoy the sun (or shade) and simply relax in this truly tranquil space.
Of particular note, this property has had some significant upgrades in recent years by the current vendors meaning whomever purchases this property will have the peace of mind that works have been completed to an incredibly high standard that can be enjoyed for years to come. These include; A new roof, completed in 2023 which also enabled the vendors at the time to insulate all parts of the roof (not just the loft). At the same time all the window bays were also given new insulation and uPVC facias. All exterior brickwork has been repointed and in 2018 the property was re-wired. A new gas fireplace was installed to the lounge in 2022 with the chimney itself being re-rendered and repointed in 2023.
