Description

Well-proportioned and sensibly laid out, it is easy to understand why homes built in the 1930s always prove popular. This fine example is well presented throughout and offers classic and spacious family-sized accommodation. Both of the reception rooms are of a good size, the lounge at the front is perfect for relaxing, and the sociable dining room enjoys pleasant views across the delightful rear garden. All three bedrooms are of a good size and can be found on the first floor alongside the modern bathroom facilities. Similar homes in the immediate area have had large double-storey extensions and loft conversions, scope to do similar is most certainly present here, obviously any improvements of this nature would require the relevant local authority’s consents. With a garage to the side, a well-presented interior and an attractive fitted kitchen, this family home needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated.
