Description

Be Prepared To Be Impressed A stunning period cottage, ideally situated in the heart of Glenfield and immaculately presented throughout. Originally dating back in part to the 1860s, this charming home has been thoughtfully altered and extended over the years to create a superb blend of character features and contemporary fixtures and fittings. The result is a beautifully balanced property that retains its historic charm while offering all the comforts of modern family living.

Upon entering the property, you are welcomed by a spacious reception hallway providing access to a ground floor WC/cloakroom, a useful utility room, a stylish fitted kitchen and a versatile reception room. Undoubtedly the heart of the home is the impressive L-shaped living dining room, enhanced by a striking lantern skylight and bi-folding doors that open onto the private rear garden, flooding the space with natural light and creating a seamless connection between the indoor and outdoor living areas.

The first floor offers a spacious landing leading to three generous double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from a modern en-suite shower room. Completing the accommodation is a beautifully appointed family bathroom featuring a freestanding roll-top bath and a separate shower cubicle.

Outside, the beautifully landscaped rear garden provides a wonderful setting for entertaining and relaxing. A paved patio, partially covered by an electric awning, leads onto a well-maintained lawn bordered by an array of established trees and shrubs. Tucked away is an additional secluded patio area, while a useful outbuilding attached to the garage benefits from power and lighting, offering excellent storage or workshop potential. To the front, a driveway provides off-road parking and leads to a double garage with an electric up-and-over door.

This truly unique home offers an exceptional combination of character, style and space in one of Glenfield's most desirable locations. Beautifully presented throughout, it would make a superb family home and simply must be viewed to fully appreciate everything it has to offer.
