PROPERTY DESCRIPTION
Tucked away in one of Old Town’s most sought-after locations, the property enjoys a tranquil outlook over greenery to the front while remaining just moments from excellent schools, independent shops, and a local park.
Stepping inside, you are welcomed by a bright entrance hall leading to superb ground-floor accommodation. The large lounge/dining room features garden-facing doors that open onto the rear patio, creating a seamless flow for entertaining. A separate snug provides a cosy retreat, while the W.C adds everyday convenience.
At the heart of the home is the impressive modern kitchen, beautifully finished with fully fitted appliances, ample storage, and a central island perfect for family gatherings. From here, the spacious conservatory extends the living space further—an ideal spot to unwind while enjoying uninterrupted views of the private rear garden.
Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms. The main bedroom boasts fitted wardrobes and a stylish en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is notably large, while bedrooms three and four offer excellent versatility for children, guests, or home working. A modern family bathroom completes this floor.
Outside, the rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a peaceful and practical outdoor haven. A patio area provides the perfect place for seating and barbecues, leading to a well-kept lawn framed by raised flower beds. The garden also benefits from gated side access and access to the detached garage from the rear.
To the front, a generous driveway offers secure off-road parking alongside access to the garage.
