About the Property

The ground floor is entered via an entrance hall leading to a versatile reception room, currently used as a family room. A wide opening creates an open-plan feel, flowing through to the front sitting room. This bright, welcoming space features a bay window with double-glazed sash windows and plantation shutters, plus a recessed fireplace flanked by display shelving. To the rear, the contemporary kitchen/dining room enjoys garden views. A vaulted ceiling with three Velux-style windows floods the room with natural light, while an exposed brick wall and breakfast bar add character. The kitchen is arranged in a horseshoe layout with a Belfast sink, built-in oven and hob, base and eye-level units and wooden worktops. Glazed bi-fold doors open onto the garden. A cloakroom/utility with space for stacked appliances completes the ground floor.

The first floor offers two bedrooms and a superb four-piece bathroom. The principal bedroom is a generous double with exposed wide-plank wooden flooring and a double-glazed sash window, while the second bedroom enjoys garden views. The bathroom includes a free-standing bath, separate shower, half tongue-and-groove walling and a heated towel rail. The second floor provides a third well-proportioned bedroom with two Velux-style windows and a smart en suite shower room.
