SUMMARY

-Offered to the market with a complete onward chain, the home offers fantastic potential to extend or redevelop, STPP, as many neighbours have already done.

-Originally built in 1935, the property has been meticulously maintained by the current vendors, for whom the house has been their home for 37 years. As such, the property is beautifully presented throughout, retaining many stunning character features including original bedroom doors and picture rails, and is ready to move in straight away.

-The property is situated on the service road behind the green, providing a pleasant outlook to the frontage, as well as a quiet position. To the front, there is a block-paved driveway offering ample parking for two cars, with garage access, and a front garden predominantly laid to lawn.

-The front door, which is of the original design, opens into a spacious extended hallway, with hardwood-effect flooring and doors to the kitchen and reception rooms, and stairs up to the first floor.

-The dining room features dual aspect windows, one of which being the bright bay situated to the front overlooking the green. The room is neutrally decorated to a high standard, and features a log burner.

-The lounge is spacious, also with dual aspect windows to the front and the rear, with a floor-to-ceiling bay window overlooking the garden. The original working fireplace remains as a handsome focal point to the room, which continues the theme of character and charm present throughout the property.

-The kitchen-breakfast room is of a generous size, with a wood panelled kitchen benefitting from wall and base units, newly fitted electric oven (fitted September 2026) and a built-in dishwasher with fridge and freezer integrated, and under-stairs cupboard, with French doors out onto the beautifully-landscaped garden, and access to the garage, which in turn features a downstairs WC.

-The garden, of a substantial size, is predominantly laid to lawn, with a patio connecting to a pathway leading around the perimeter. There are stone-walled raised beds, and outbuildings including a large shed, and a charming bespoke octagonal summer-house, of wooden construction with cedar shingle roof, which sits in a proud position at the far end of the garden. The mature hedges and trees afford the property an enviable level of privacy.

-Upstairs, you are greeted by an original stained glass window, which has been reset at the vendors' expense in a double-glazed window, offering warmth and easy maintenance, whilst retaining the charm of another original feature. There are three bedrooms, two of which are generous doubles, and a family bathroom and separate WC, both of which feature wall and floor tiles and a matching white suite. In the bathroom, there is a heated towel rail, and an electric shower over the bath.

-The two double bedrooms both feature built-in furniture, and follow the footprint of the reception rooms below. The master bedroom, spanning the entire length of the property, has dual aspect windows to the front and rear, and offers substantial space as a sizeable double bedroom. Bedroom 2, also a generous double, features a bay window to the front, and further benefits from in-built furniture. The third bedroom, a good-sized single, overlooks the garden, and features an alcove built around the chimney breast.
