The Property

A superb example of its type, this beautifully presented Victorian house has been beautifully extended, refurbished and updated in recent years and now offers family friendly accommodation over three well-planned floors.

To the ground floor a generous sitting room at the front of the house features an open fireplace, built in cabinets, picture rails, and stripped wooden floors. It leads to an inner lobby where the stairs rise to the first and second floors and beyond which is an impressive extended open-plan kitchen/dining family room to the rear of the house.

A real focal point of the house this large flexible space features bi-fold doors and a sash window to the back garden, while a vaulted ceiling with conservation roof lights floods the dining area with natural light. The kitchen features bespoke hand painted cabinets, Corian counter tops, an integrated electric oven with gas hob, feature extractor canopy over, and a Belfast sink. The floor to the kitchen and dining areas has been laid to large, polished flag stone style tiles while the living room area has stripped wooden floors and features picture and dado rails and wall-mounted uplighters.

Upstairs there are two of the three very comfortable bedrooms and a very spacious family bathroom to the first floor with a third bedroom located on the second floor, a well-executed loft conversion with conservation roof lights to both the front and rear. The family bathroom features an attractive roll-top free-standing bath as well as a separate walk-in shower cubicle, the w.c. has a wall-mounted high-level cistern, while a pretty cast iron fireplace, picture and dados rail complete the picture.

Outside

The house sits behind a handsome brick-built period façade with generous sash windows and a smart front door with feature, stained glass panels, all beneath a slate hung pitched roof, and behind a low maintenance townhouse style garden laid to slate chippings with a pretty picket fence and gate to the front boundary.

To the rear is a well-proportioned garden with a southerly aspect. Offering low-maintenance outside space ideal for al-fresco dining and entertaining, there are bi-fold doors from the kitchen to a block paved terrace across the back of the house, leading to an artificial lawn surrounded by part fenced, part brick-built boundaries.
