The Property - A beautifully presented three-bedroom semi-detached home, this property perfectly blends 1930s character with modern, stylish living. Set on a peaceful residential street, it offers generous proportions, elegant finishes, and an easy, natural flow between living spaces - ideal for family life or professionals seeking a home with charm and practicality.
The welcoming hallway, complete with stained-glass detailing, leads into a bright bay-fronted sitting room. The space is thoughtfully designed, featuring a wood-burning stove, bespoke cabinetry, and warm tones that complement the natural light flooding in from the front aspect.
To the rear, the property opens into a stunning open-plan kitchen and dining area - the true heart of the home. The kitchen is fitted with sage green shaker cabinetry, brass hardware, and herringbone flooring, giving a stylish yet timeless feel. The dining area, extended to create a light and airy space, enjoys French doors opening to the garden and a skylight above that fills the room with daylight - perfect for entertaining or family gatherings.
A utility room and a contemporary ground-floor cloakroom, complete with striking feature wallpaper, add functionality and flair.
Upstairs, the landing is bright and open, leading to three well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted mirrored wardrobes and a lovely bay window with open views. The second double bedroom overlooks the garden, while the third bedroom is currently used as a home office, offering flexibility for working from home or as a nursery. The family bathroom is smartly finished with textured tiles, a bath with overhead shower, and a modern vanity unit.
The Outside - To the front, the home sits behind a low brick wall with a well-tended garden and gated access. A side gate leads through to a beautifully landscaped rear garden, designed to offer both privacy and versatility.
There’s a paved patio adjoining the dining room - ideal for outdoor dining - leading onto a central lawn bordered by mature shrubs and perennials. At the far end, a raised terrace provides a secluded seating area surrounded by greenery, perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation. A timber shed and useful side storage complete the setting.
The property benefits from two off-street parking spaces to the rear along with an EV charging station.
