Description
Access is via the garden and steps rise up to a very bright and spacious covered porch before entering via the main front door. The entrance hallway is an impressive space and sets the tone for the generous proportions, high ceilings and original features a property of this period offers.
The front aspect 15'2 x 14'1 reception room has been designed to be the 'heart of the home' providing the ideal entertaining space and further benefits from a working fireplace creating a warm ambience. This is a lovely bright room with plenty of natural light flowing through, thanks to large bay windows. Next is the modern kitchen, fitted with a selection of floor to ceiling shaker style units complemented by granite worktops, range cooker and washing machine plus integrated appliances. There is also plenty of space for a large table and chairs. The master bedroom is 14'9 x 14'2 and offers generous space for freestanding furniture, along with lovely views across the garden. This room also boasts a modern en-suite shower room. Bedroom two is a double, with built-in wardrobes and bedroom three is a good-sized single that could also be utilised as a study. Completing the accommodation is the family bathroom fitted with a modern white suite with bath and overhead shower.
In addition, most rooms have original stained-glass windows as well as fitted attractive plantation shutters which are great for added privacy. There is also ample storage within the property, including the attic space which offers a great potential for a loft conversion subject to planning permission, to increase the square footage.
Outside
A wonderful feature of this property is the outside space which is a brick and fence enclosed garden with a spacious area of lawn bordered by well-established flower beds and mature shrubs. There is also a large shed to store garden tools and bikes, as well as a further storage cupboard located at the bottom of the steps leading up to the property.
