A gated pedestrian entrance and tiled pathway leads past the walled front garden to the property entrance. On entering the property an enclosed porch area provides storage space for outdoor apparel and provides access to the entrance hallway and principal rooms. Situated to the front of the property is a study/ reception room with feature fire place and large bay window filling the room with natural light. Adjacent is an additional reception/ dining room again featuring original fireplace and via a sash window, an outlook of the side patio and seating area. The kitchen/ breakfast room was redesigned by the present owners to create a well-appointed, open plan and functional kitchen and reception space. The kitchen area comprises a range of floor level and wall mounted units, central island and integrated appliances as well as recessed gas oven with hob and extractor over. The adjacent dining area provides ample dining space with room for a large table and chairs making this a perfect entertaining space.

Stairs descend from the entrance hallway to the lower ground floor basement comprising two well proportioned rooms and coal store, currently utilised for storage and laundry with sink and appliances.
Whilst presently offering generous storage space, the two basement rooms present the opportunity to create further reception rooms or accommodation, subject to the necessary consents.
The first floor comprises three bedrooms and an office/ study serviced by a family bathroom and separate shower room. The master bedroom which was formally the principal sitting room for the property is situated on the first floor and has been adapted by the present owners to create a very generous bedroom with walk in dressing room fitted with a range of integrated storage. The master bedroom features a gas fire with stone surround and mantel as well a very pleasant outlook over the neighbouring public park of Borough Gardens. The two further bedrooms on the first floor are both double rooms with space for free standing furniture as well as a study/ office space with adjoins the smaller of the three bedrooms on the first floor which could also be utilised as a dressing room space for this bedroom. Servicing the bedrooms on the first floor is a family bathroom and shower room respectively. The contemporary family bathroom comprises stone boat bath on a raised plinth, WC as well as his-and-hers sinks. The recently completed shower room comprises large corner shower with brushed copper styled splash back, hand-wash basin, and WC
Stairs from the first floor landing ascend to the second floor offering three further bedrooms, serviced by a family shower room.
