Description
The wide entrance hall is instantly bright thanks to the frosted sidelight window. Parquet flooring runs underfoot, a charming feature, while the open tread staircase makes a statement as it rises ahead. Beneath it is a deep nook for storing coats, shoes, and the day's comings and goings - a practical space dressed in neutral tones and filled with daylight.
The first room on the right is the dining room, a space with heart and history, where celebrations and quiet family nights in can be enjoyed. The parquet flooring continues, grounding the space with warmth, while a broad front-facing window frames views of the verdant garden. Soft, neutral décor offers a blank canvas for future touches, and a central light keeps the space feeling bright into the evenings.
Behind the dining room sits the kitchen - a functional, well laid out space with an oven, grill, dishwasher, fridge, and a pantry-style cupboard. A large window draws attention to a glorious tree outside, ensuring nature is always in view. There's ample room for preparing meals and storing ingredients, and for those seeking to blend traditional character with contemporary living, there's exciting potential here to knock through and open up the space into one open-plan kitchen-diner.
Continue through to the rear porch and utility room, a practical corner of the home where appliances can be hidden from view and laundry made light work of. This space also provides direct access into the double garage, as well as out onto the rear patio, making it perfect for summer airings or bringing the dog home from a walk.
Head back into the hallway and just before the staircase, a handy downstairs toilet completes the ground-floor practicality. Brightly coloured flooring meets fresh white tiles for a cheerful, easy-to-maintain finish. It's the perfect pitstop for guests or for popping in from the garden.
Flowing round to the side of the property is the main lounge, a bright and wonderfully spacious room that enjoys natural light from both directions thanks to its dual aspect layout.
Currently divided into two cosy seating areas, it offers the flexibility to entertain, relax, read or unwind, surrounded by views of both the front and back gardens. Bookshelves and furnishings sit comfortably here, and the tranquil, leafy backdrop from either side only enhances the sense of calm.
Take the staircase up, where antico-style flooring adds a smart and tactile finish. At the top, a wide landing wraps around the upper floor, with a large window drawing in morning light. It's a bright, breathable space that's peaceful from the moment the top step is reached.
To the right, bedroom two is a generous double, beautifully fitted with floor-to-ceiling wardrobes with integrated lighting, soft green carpet underfoot, and serene views out across the front garden. It's a peaceful spot to retreat to at the end of the day.
Opposite sits bedroom three, currently arranged as a home office, but with scope to become a nursery, playroom or guest room. A large front-facing window makes it a bright, adaptable space.
Towards the rear, bedroom four offers generous floor space, a glorious garden outlook, and plenty of room for wardrobes and a double bed, all wrapped in soft, neutral tones. It's peaceful, private, and offers real flexibility.
Tucked off the landing is the family bathroom, partially tiled in soft tones with white paint above, lino underfoot, and a large tub with a shower overhead. Whether soaking after a long walk or rushing through the morning routine, this is a calm, functional space.
The principal bedroom is a calming sanctuary overlooking the rear garden. Wooden flooring runs underfoot, with soft neutral tones to the walls. There's space here for a super king-sized bed, drawers, and side tables. A traditional pendant light adds character, while a wash basin in the corner hints at future ensuite potential, if desired.
Outdoors, the garden offers a large patio area, ideal for relaxing in the sun and plenty of space for potted plants or seating to enjoy views of the trees beyond. There's privacy here, and lots of it, but also opportunity to grow, or simply soak up the peaceful setting that surrounds.
Freshly decorated and lovingly maintained, Tor Avenue is a home with character in every room and opportunity in every corner. There's scope to modernise and reconfigure, or simply settle in, enjoy the space and let the light lead the way.
