This pretty three-bedroom end-of-terrace Victorian home has a wealth of charm and character, including sash windows, open fireplaces, elements of exposed brickwork, and stripped wooden doors and floors.

The ground floor is entered via a hallway, which leads to the sitting room, with an open fireplace, and double sash windows that look out onto the cottage front garden.  The dining room has a wood burning stove, sash window and wooden floors.  The shaker-style kitchen has solid hardwood worktops, Belfast sink, access to downstairs WC and double doors to the back garden.  The first floor is the light and airy with a double bedroom to the front with sash windows, built-in wardrobes and ornamental fireplace, a further bedroom with ornamental fireplace, and a family bathroom.  Stairs lead to the second floor double bedroom with velux windows to the front and rear. 

Externally there are front and rear cottage gardens.  The rear garden features thoughtfully planted flower beds, a winding brick path, and raised terrace area for outdoor seating and dining enclosed by an attractive flint garden wall.
