Description
An attractive three-bedroom townhouse with off-road parking, situated on a desirable street in St. Dunstan`s, a stone`s throw from the West Station. You will be pushed to find a better location for commuters, with the West Station offering the high-speed service into London St. Pancras, getting you into the capital within the hour. The immediate neighbourhood of St. Dunstan`s offers a buzzy atmosphere, home to a number of the city`s most treasured eateries including the famous Goods Shed, a wonderful food hall and farmers` market selling fresh, local produce.
Built in the late 80`s, every effort has been made by the developers to ensure the townhouses are in keeping with the period homes on the street. They have handsome yellow brick facades and attractive railings to the front, giving it the look of their period counterparts.
On the ground floor, you will find a well-appointed kitchen to the front and a wonderful lounge/diner to the rear. The lounge/diner is very spacious and enjoys and abundance of natural light, which floods in from the French doors which lead out to the courtyard. There is also a storage cupboard in this room. The kitchen has a range of cream-coloured cabinets, offering ample storage and integrated appliances include a NEFF oven with a hob and a dishwasher. There is also space under-the-counter for a fridge and a washing machine.
Stairs rise to the first floor, where you will find two bedrooms and the family bathroom. Both bedrooms are good sizes and can house double beds, perfect for guests and growing families. The family bathroom is modern and features a double shower unit and a stone wash basin which gives it a natural finish.
The primary bedroom commands the top floor and benefits from a large en-suite bathroom which has a bath and a shower over, perfect for hiding away and enjoying a well-deserved bubble bath at the end of a long day! The bedroom has fitted wardrobes, providing a good amount of storage and hanging space. There is also a spacious landing, which the current owner uses as a dressing area. If needed, this would also make a great little office space.
OUTSIDE:
The French doors from your lounge/diner open out to a small but sunny rear courtyard, which is a blank canvas for you to add some colourful potted plants and some patio furniture. A door at the rear then takes you into your undercover car port, however, for ease, the current owners use this for storage and park their car in front.
In addition to your private courtyard, there is also a communal garden for the residents to use, ideal for picnics with family and friends in the summer months. Residents pay a contribution towards the upkeep of the communal and green spaces which is £144, paid twice yearly.
