Description

This forecourt-fronted Victorian style home is situated in a busy and highly sought-after location, ideally placed for a range of local amenities including a Co-op, primary school, Post Office, and regular bus services, making it exceptionally convenient for everyday living. Set back from the pavement behind an enclosed forecourt garden, the property retains much of its original charm and character.

Access is gained via an entrance vestibule featuring a striking mosaic tiled floor which continues into the hallway, where a staircase rises ahead and doors lead to the principal reception rooms. To the front is a bright bay-fronted lounge with a feature fireplace set into the chimney breast, complete with marble conglomerate inset, hearth, and electric fire. Adjacent is a separate dining room, also featuring an electric fire and offering direct access through to the kitchen, creating a practical and flexible layout for family life and entertaining.

The kitchen is fitted with a good range of cupboards and drawers, complemented by laminate-style worktops and an inset sink. Appliances include a gas hob with concealed extractor hood, integrated double oven with grill, fridge freezer, and plumbing for a washing machine. From here, a rear door leads out to the yard, which provides access to the attached garage where the boiler is located.

On the first floor, a split-level landing provides access to three bedrooms and the shower room, along with a useful storage cupboard and loft access via a ladder. The main bedroom is a generous double positioned at the front of the property, while the remaining bedrooms offer versatile accommodation. The shower room is fitted with a three-piece suite comprising a shower cubicle, pedestal wash hand basin, and WC, complemented by contrasting wall tiling and a ladder-style radiator.

The property benefits from gas-fired central heating and double glazing, although it would benefit from general updating and modernisation, offering an excellent opportunity for purchasers to add their own style and improve further. Offered with no onward chain, this charming Victorian home presents a fantastic opportunity in a well-connected and popular residential area.
