This traditional home has generously proportions rooms and the quality associated with its period, when materials were plentiful and craftsmanship was the order of the day. Our clients added a conservatory in 2008 and extended to the side in 2011 to create a good-sized kitchen/breakfast room. Further improvements have been made skilfully blending its original character with the practicalities of modern-day living. From the moment you step into the wide reception hall, it is evident that this home has a lot to offer. The generous sized bay fronted living room retaining its open brick fireplace. In addition, there is a separate dining room that also retains its fireplace and has French doors opening into a conservatory that leads around to the kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen has been comprehensively fitted including integrated appliances, provision for an American style refrigerator and a breakfast bar peninsular. The former ground floor shower room has been made into a utility/cloakroom with plumbing for laundry appliances. The first floor gives access to a large loft space that could be converted into further accommodation (subject to planning consent). All four bedrooms are of a generous size and the fully tiled family bathroom has been attractively appointed with a modern 4-piece white suite including a separate shower cubical.
