The Accommodation

The property is accessed via a private entrance composite front door which leads via entrance porch into a surprisingly spacious kitchen. Recently updated, the kitchen offers an excellent range of storage cupboards and worktop space, a feature not often found in a one-bedroom property. In addition to the fitted units, there are two useful built-in storage cupboards, one of which houses the gas central heating combination boiler.

A doorway leads through to a comfortable sized lounge / diner reception room enjoying a southerly aspect window and ample space for lounge and dining furniture.
From the lounge, a door leads through to the generously proportioned double bedroom. Positioned to the front of the property, the bedroom benefits from attractive twin bay-style windows which allow excellent natural light. The room comfortably accommodates a double bed alongside wardrobes and additional bedroom furniture.

The accommodation is completed by a modern bathroom fitted with a contemporary white suite and benefiting from a useful recessed WC area.
Throughout the property there is a good sense of space, created by the high ceilings and larger windows typical of homes from this period. Combined with neutral décor and tasteful floor coverings, the flat is ready to move into while still providing blank canvas scope for personalisation.

Private Garden & Outside Storage

A particularly attractive feature of the property is the fully enclosed private rear garden.
Enjoying a favourable southerly aspect, the garden measures approximately 28ft in depth and has been thoughtfully arranged to provide an attractive yet low-maintenance outdoor space. Areas of natural and artificial lawn are complemented by a raised sun deck with integrated timber seating, creates an ideal setting for outdoor dining, entertaining or for simply relaxing in the sunshine. The garden offers a manageable blank canvas for those wishing to introduce further planting, landscaping or decorative touches.

In addition, the property benefits from access to a tandem double garage which is shared with the neighbouring flat and provides excellent storage space for bicycles, gardening equipment, sports equipment or other leisure items.
