Property Summary
Full Details
Set back from the road, the property is approached via a paved pathway, with hedging and front garden to the right, to a part glazed door with window and decorative stone façade above. The front door leads into the long entrance hall which gives access to the reception rooms and the stairs to the first floor.
Overlooking the front of the property is the dining room with a bay window that allows plenty of light to flood the room. There is a superb original cast iron fireplace with inset glazed decorative tiles on either side, sitting on a red tiled hearth with a carved wood surround and mantel above. To the left of the fireplace are floor to ceiling fitted shelves in the alcove. To the rear of the property is the stylish living room with wood floor, fitted floor to ceiling shelves in the alcove, a fitted shelving unit in the fireplace and French doors that lead into the rear garden.
From the living room is the stunning modern galley kitchen with tiled floor. It is fitted with a range of contemporary glass-fronted and closed wall, base and drawer units, with polished wood work surfaces, concealed lighting under the wall units, a single drainer stainless steel sink unit with mixer tap, a built-in oven with gas hob and extractor hood above, as well as space for a tall fridge/freezer, built-in washing machine and a glazed door that leads into the garden.
Beneath the stairs in entrance hall is a large space that currently houses fitted wall units, a floor storage cupboard and a dryer. The carpeted staircase with wood banisters takes you to the first floor landing which provides access to the loft space, a walk-in storage/airing cupboard, two double bedrooms with charming original cast iron fireplaces with wood surrounds, one of which has a wall mounted wash hand basin, a family bathroom and a separate WC.
The part tiled family bathroom features a white suite comprising a panelled bath with mixer tap, a pedestal wash hand basin, a fully tiled separate shower unit with glazed door and a large floor to ceiling storage cupboard. Adjacent to the bathroom is a separate WC with radiator.
From the first floor landing is a part glazed pine door which opens up to a further enclosed galleried staircase that leads to the fabulous third bedroom. The skylights flood the room with sunlight while there are fitted shelves in alcoves, exposed beams, a walk-in wardrobe and a fully tiled en suite which incorporates a low level WC, pedestal wash hand basin with mixer tap, separate shower unit with glass door and a heated towel rail.
To the front of the property is an established hedge and trees either side of the bay window, offering a good level of privacy. To the rear of the property, the wonderfully sunny fully paved garden is bordered by wooden fence panels and brick wall with adorned climbing plants. Wonderfully easy to maintain and a true sun trap, there is plenty of space for a range of potted plants as well as ample room for garden furniture, making it an ideal place for family gatherings and entertaining.
