Around the corner from Vernon Avenue is number 38 Curzon Street which is for auction by Gunne on March 11th, with a guide price of £230,000. This house is on three levels and is deceptively large with very flexible accommodation. This means that new owners can either live in it as a two-bedroom house, with three reception rooms, or as a three-bedroom house with two reception rooms.
The house last changed hands in 1988 and the owners have completely refurbished it, however nearly all the period details are gone with the most noticeable exception being a fine cast-iron fireplace in the front room. This lovely high-ceilinged room is currently in use as a bedroom and has stripped pine floorboards and the original shutters. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, both with nice fireplaces.
The main living accommodation is downstairs. Unusually for these houses, there is a very large square-shaped room to the front with a shuttered window that faces on to a patio-style area that is below street level.
At the back of the house is a nice sized livingroom with patio doors that open out to the garden. Off this is a particularly long and narrow galley style kitchen with double patio doors.
The bathroom, in keeping with the decor in the rest of the house, features pine.
