Property:

The accommodation is approached through an attractive entrance hallway, immediately displaying some of the character of the property with its striking patterned tiled floor, staircase rising to the first floor.

The living room is a comfortable and inviting reception room with a large window providing plenty of natural light. A traditional fireplace forms an attractive focal point, complemented by a feature painted wall and ample space for sofas and other furniture.

A separate dining room provides excellent additional living space and is equally well suited as a family room if required. The room has a particularly warm feel, with a substantial fireplace featuring exposed stonework and a timber mantel, together with space for a good-sized dining table and chairs. A large window overlooks the rear and allows plenty of natural light into the room.

The kitchen offers a range of contemporary light-coloured fitted units complemented by contrasting work surfaces and tiled splashbacks. There is generous preparation and storage space, together with space for appliances, oven and hob with extractor over, sink with tap over, window to the rear and attractive wood-effect flooring. An open archway provides a natural connection between the kitchen and dining room, creating a sociable arrangement whilst retaining the definition of two individual rooms.

To the rear is a bright garden room/conservatory, enjoying extensive glazing and an outlook directly over the garden. This provides a lovely additional sitting area and creates an excellent link between the house and outside, with a door opening directly onto the garden.

Also on the ground floor is a useful additional room, currently arranged as a bedroom. With its exposed painted stone walls and window overlooking the garden, this is a versatile space that could equally work well as a home office, study or occasional bedroom, depending upon a purchaser's requirements.

First floor

On the first floor are two further well-proportioned bedrooms

The principal bedroom is a particularly pleasant double room with plenty of space for a full range of bedroom furniture. A large window provides good natural light, whilst the room comfortably accommodates wardrobes, drawers and a dressing area.

The second bedroom is also a good-sized room, again capable of accommodating a double bed and additional bedroom furniture.

The bedrooms are served by a generously proportioned family bathroom, which is larger than might typically be expected in a property of this style. It is fitted with a bath, separate shower enclosure, wash hand basin and WC, with two windows providing excellent natural light.

As stated, this floor could be reconfigured to create three bedrooms.

Outside

The rear garden is undoubtedly one of the property's major attractions and offers considerably more outside space than the frontage might initially suggest.

Immediately adjoining the house is an area ideal for sitting out, with the garden then extending away through an attractive combination of lawn, paved and gravelled pathways, established flower and shrub beds and mature boundaries.

A paved terrace provides an excellent area for a table and chairs and is ideal for summer dining and entertaining. Mature stone walls and established planting add considerable character and give the garden a pleasantly private and enclosed feel.

Towards the far end is a further paved seating area alongside an ornamental pond, creating another attractive place from which to enjoy the garden. There is also a useful garden shed.

To the front parking for a small car and additional on street parking.
