Entrance Hall:
The property is approached beneath a covered arched entrance and entered through an anthracite composite front door, with double-glazed panels positioned to either side and above allowing plenty of natural light into the hallway.

Stairs rise to the first-floor landing, with doors providing access to the kitchen and open-plan living and dining room. Decorative wall panelling to the stairwell adds further detail, while a central heating radiator completes the space.

A useful under-stairs pantry provides shelving and benefits from a double-glazed window to the side elevation.

Open-Plan Living & Dining Room:
The living and dining areas have been opened to create a connected arrangement while retaining a defined space for each use.

The living area is positioned at the front of the property and centres around the double-glazed bay window, with a gas fire, hearth and mantelpiece providing a focal point.

An open archway connects through to the dining area at the rear, where sliding glazed doors open directly onto the garden and provide a natural connection between the internal and external spaces.

There is ample provision for a dining table, while two central heating radiators complete the room.

Kitchen:
The kitchen has been fitted under the current ownership and comprises a range of wall and base units with work surfaces over, providing a practical amount of preparation and storage space.

Integrated appliances include a Siemens electric oven, five-ring gas hob and Siemens extractor hood. There is also a Franke one-and-a-half bowl stainless steel sink with drainer and mixer tap, together with space for a fridge freezer and washing machine.

The wall-mounted Worcester combination boiler, installed in 2020, is also housed within the kitchen.

A double-glazed window is positioned to the side elevation, while glazed French doors provide direct access onto the rear patio and garden.

A sandstone patio extends across the rear of the home, providing a defined area for outdoor seating and dining.

Steps lead down onto the lawn, with a decorative shingle pathway continuing towards the rear of the garden. Established trees, shrubs and planting provide further interest around the boundaries, with timber fencing enclosing the garden and a garden shed providing external storage.
