This is a delightful unlisted end of terrace cottage with later extensions, brick built with part tile hung elevations under a tiled roof. Dating back to the 18th Century, the property has been updated and extended over the years to provide a versatile and characterful family home.
The side extension has created a good size entrance hallway and also benefits from a luxurious shower room with under floor heating and a modern shower cubicle, wash basin, w/c and towel ladder radiator.
The door from the hall opens into the impressive kitchen/dining room which is fitted with a range of painted cupboards, electric Belling oven, hob and hood, space for dishwasher, washing machine and fridge freezer.
A large beam runs through the kitchen defining the area between here and the dining room. There is a feature wood burning stove with brick fireplace and to the side of this, the pantry.

From the dining room, a door leads into the super garden room with vaulted ceiling, beams, Velux windows and door opening onto the garden terrace area.

From the other side of the kitchen, there is open access to the charismatic sitting room with inglenook fireplace, beamed wall to side, and latch door leading to stairs to first floor.
