Situated in a sought-after residential area, this attractive forecourt-fronted Victorian home offers spacious and versatile accommodation within easy reach of a range of everyday amenities. Nearby facilities include a regular bus service, Nisa Local convenience store, the Victoria Tavern, dental surgeries and well-regarded primary and infant schools, making the property ideally placed for families and professionals alike. The home has been significantly upgraded by the current owners and is sympathetically decorated throughout, combining period character with modern comforts to create a warm and inviting living environment.

The property is entered through a charming entrance vestibule which immediately sets the tone for the home, featuring beautiful mosaic tiled flooring and a part-glazed door leading into the main hallway. From here, stairs rise to the first floor with useful storage beneath, while doors provide access to the two reception rooms. The bay-fronted lounge is a bright and generously proportioned space, enhanced by a decorative fireplace with tiled inlay and an open grate, creating an attractive focal point. The adjacent dining room offers a welcoming area for entertaining and benefits from newly created open access into the kitchen, along with double doors that open directly into the rear yard. A solid fuel stove set within the chimney opening adds further character and warmth to the room.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to provide both style and practicality, offering extensive storage and work surface space along with a breakfast bar for informal dining. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher positioned beside the sink, along with a fridge and freezer, while there is space to accommodate a range-style cooker with a cooker hood above. Decorative tiling adds personality and visual interest to the space. Beyond the kitchen is a useful laundry room fitted with additional units, plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer. This area also incorporates a convenient WC with hand basin. From the laundry room there is internal access to the attached garage, providing additional storage and practicality.

To the first floor, a split-level landing leads to four bedrooms, including a particularly spacious master bedroom positioned at the front of the house. The family bathroom is fitted with a modern three-piece suite finished with chrome fittings, including a bath with dual-head shower and glazed screen, a hand basin set above a storage cupboard, and a WC.

A further staircase from the landing leads to the converted loft room, offering a versatile additional space. The loft has been decorated and carpeted, benefits from a skylight allowing natural light to fill the space, and provides useful eaves storage.
