Why You’ll Like It:
This is a home with real personality—ideal for buyers looking for something characterful rather than conventional. The loft room adds valuable flexibility, while the open-plan living space creates a sociable heart to the home. With a long garden and a sought-after location close to the station and park, it offers both lifestyle and potential.

The layout has been thoughtfully arranged to maximise both space and flow. On the ground floor, the reception room sits at the front of the property, enjoying a classic bay window that floods the space with natural light and enhances the sense of character that runs throughout the home. This is a warm and inviting room—perfect for relaxing or entertaining—where period charm meets everyday comfort. From here, the space naturally flows through to the dining room, creating a sociable and connected living environment that lends itself perfectly to hosting, family time or simply enjoying the everyday rhythm of life.

To the rear of the property, the kitchen is neatly positioned, offering a practical and functional space with direct access out to the garden. While compact in footprint, it is well laid out and full of potential, providing the opportunity for future enhancement or redesign. The ground floor is completed by the bathroom, conveniently located and easily accessible from the main living areas.
Upstairs on the first floor, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom is positioned at the front of the house, benefiting from another attractive bay window which enhances both the light and the feeling of space.

The second bedroom sits quietly to the rear, overlooking the garden and offering a peaceful and comfortable retreat. Both rooms retain the character of the property while providing versatile spaces that can be adapted to suit a range of needs, whether as bedrooms, a home office or creative space.

A staircase leads from the landing up to the second floor, where the loft room is located. This is a standout feature of the home, offering a generous and flexible additional space that sets the property apart. With its well-proportioned dimensions, it provides an ideal setting for a home office, studio, games room or even occasional guest accommodation. Its separation from the main living areas adds a sense of privacy, making it a truly valuable and versatile addition.

Outside, the property benefits from a long rear garden, offering plenty of space to enjoy outdoor living. Whether used for dining, relaxing, gardening or entertaining, it provides a wonderful extension of the home and a private retreat from city life. With scope to landscape or personalise, it presents an opportunity to create a truly special outdoor space.

Owner’s Secret:
“We love how different the house feels compared to others nearby—it has a lot of character and a really relaxed, creative vibe. The loft room has been a great extra space, and the garden is much longer than most, which has been perfect in the summer. It’s also incredibly convenient for getting into town or catching the train.”
