Entering through the porch, you step into the light-filled, galley-style kitchen. Fitted with wall and base units, patterned work surfaces, and tiled splashbacks, the space includes room for everyday appliances such as a washing machine, fridge, and cooker, along with space for smaller countertop appliances. A rear-facing window and glazed door bring in natural light and open directly onto the garden, while tiled flooring completes this practical setup and highlights the potential for updating into a modern, functional kitchen.

From the kitchen, a door leads into the hallway and onwards into the dining room, which together with the lounge forms a generous dual-aspect reception space. A wide archway links the two sections, allowing a natural flow. The dining area is centred around an exposed brick wall with a fitted gas fire, creating a focal point, while the lounge enjoys large rear windows with garden views and direct access via sliding doors into a conservatory. The conservatory is currently not in use and would benefit from restoration, offering scope for new owners to reimagine it as an additional living space. Patterned wallpaper and fitted carpets reflect the home’s character, while leaving room for modernisation.

The property provides two well-proportioned double bedrooms, each offering versatile living space. A family bathroom completes the interior, fitted with both a bath and a separate shower for everyday convenience. Finished in a soft pink suite with decorative tiled walls, the room also features a pedestal wash basin and a frosted window for natural light and privacy.

Outside, the home is complemented by a generous enclosed rear garden, laid to lawn with a patio seating area and established planting, offering a private setting with plenty of potential for landscaping. To the front, a driveway and garage provide off-road parking. The garage includes stairs to a partially boarded storage area and a door leading directly into the garden, adding further practicality.
