A wooden entrance door with glazed panels opens into a welcoming porch featuring classic period tiled flooring.

The hallway continues the attractive period tiled flooring, setting the tone for the home’s timeless character.

The dining room is a stylish and inviting space with stunning oak flooring and a window overlooking the rear. A natural opening leads through to the drawing room, where impressive bay windows to the front fill the room with light. Oak flooring continues here, complemented by a feature fireplace with a stone surround that forms an elegant focal point.

The kitchen is particularly impressive, fitted with a comprehensive range of wooden-fronted base, wall, and drawer units topped with granite work surfaces and a fitted breakfast bar. Appliances include an inset four-ring gas hob with extractor above, a high-level oven with warming drawer beneath, and a double-bowled ceramic sink.
