Internal Description - This particularly spacious one-bedroom end-of-terrace house offers well-proportioned accommodation arranged over two floors. Combining the independence and character of a house with accommodation more generous than might typically be expected of a one-bedroom property, it provides a well-balanced and individual home. The front door opens into a generous entrance hall with an impressive ceiling height and useful built-in storage, providing ample space for coats, bicycles and everyday belongings. New flooring has been laid within the entrance hall, while double doors lead through to the principal living space. The main reception room is bright and well proportioned, with large windows to the front and side allowing excellent levels of natural light. There is sufficient space to create clearly defined sitting, dining and home-working areas, with a fireplace providing an attractive focal point and the generous ceiling height further enhancing the sense of space. New carpeting has also been fitted during the current ownership. The kitchen is positioned just off the reception room and was replaced in 2021, with a practical arrangement of fitted units, work surfaces and space for a range of appliances. To the rear of the ground floor is a further lobby providing access to the outside, the shower room and an additional storage cupboard housing the boiler and providing space for a washing machine. The shower room has been efficiently arranged and incorporates further useful storage. A notably generous staircase rises to the first floor, where the landing offers additional usable space and has previously accommodated shelving and book storage. The bedroom occupies the upper floor and is a well-proportioned double room, benefitting from extensive built-in wardrobes and cupboards together with further eaves storage.

External Description - To the rear of the property is a small private outside area, providing sufficient space for a table and chairs and creating a pleasant spot for sitting outside during the warmer months. Being positioned at the end of the terrace, the property also benefits from windows to more than one elevation, contributing to the particularly good levels of natural light within the main living accommodation.
