The approach to the house is delightful, a pathway through well maintained green communal gardens leads to a nice front garden that is just waiting for someone to put their mark on.

Upon entry there is a very useful porch for coats, shoes and the like. This leads through to a semi open plan kitchen/dining and reception room which is a great entertaining/family space. Just by the entrance there is a beautiful mid-century mahogany staircase, that is painted white, is a lovely feature, the reception room has floor to ceiling sliding doors that lead out to the garden.

The kitchen has been well arranged with plenty of stylish ply wood storage cupboards and integrated appliances. The sink has a boiling hot water tap and sits neatly under a large window looking out to the front garden. The flooring in the kitchen is tiled which then changes to the original exposed Maple wood floorboards in the living/dining area. At the far end of the living room the large sliding doors that frame the garden beautifully.

The current owners have green fingers and have cleverly designed the garden to be easy to maintain with a good selection of plants and shrubs. The large deck leads directly from the house, which is perfect for al fresco dining in the summer.

At the far end of the garden there are stepped beds packed full of plants to create a green backdrop. This is a tranquil peaceful space to relax and unwind.

Upstairs on the first floor is another reception room that is dominated by full width windows that offer plenty of natural light and lovely far-reaching views. The floors are more of the original Maple wood and the mahogany staircase, that has been painted white, continues upwards.

Also on this floor is a bedroom and a luxurious shower room which has underfloor heating. The shower room floors and walls are clad in tiles. There is a good size walk-in shower enclosure accompanied by a modern wash hand basin and a contemporary toilet. A large, frosted window allows for plenty of natural light and ventilation.

Adjacent, the bedroom at the rear of the house mirrors the bedroom on the first floor and enjoys nice views over the garden. It also comes with a fixed step ladder that leads up to a mezzanine loft room that offers plenty of storage in the eaves and would make a great kids play area!
