About this home

A sought-after address with timeless appeal. This handsome double-fronted period home sits proudly on one of the area’s most desirable streets. Set back behind a low wall and private hedge giving privacy, it enjoys a peaceful residential setting.

Step inside and you’ll discover a home that blends elegance with comfort. The ground floor is defined by high ceilings, detailed original cornicing, and stripped wooden floors that flow from the welcoming lounge across the hallway and through to the dining area. The heart of the home is the kitchen diner, fitted in a cream shaker style with solid oak worktops and a Belfast sink. A stainless steel range cooker is neatly set back into the chimney breast, creating a focal point ideal for home cooking. Just off the kitchen, a utility room and a ground-floor WC add practical touches.

On the first floor, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms, including a standout master suite with its own sitting area stretching across the front of the home. The four-piece family bathroom on this level features a classic roll-top bath, perfect for relaxing. The top floor offers three additional double bedrooms and a further family bathroom, giving flexibility for growing families or those in need of home office space.

The rear garden is beautifully landscaped and faces south, offering a peaceful and private outdoor space. A stone patio provides the perfect spot for outdoor dining, while raised beds and planted borders bring colour and structure to the space. It’s a tranquil setting designed for both relaxation and enjoyment.
