The handsome Edwardian façade features a box bay window, red brick detailing and a pretty cottage-style planted front garden.

The original staircase, bannister, newel post and turned spindles have been retained.

The sitting room measures approximately 14'9" x 15'1" and features a timber-framed box bay window with secondary glazing, wood-burning stove, built-in alcove storage, corniced ceiling, picture rail and deep skirting.

The impressive 20'6" x 10'8" kitchen/dining room is a particular highlight, with modern units, Iroko hardwood work surfaces, Bosch integrated appliances, induction hob, electric oven and ceramic sink. Original features include a built-in dresser, exposed brick wall and quarry-tiled floor. There is ample space for a large dining table, with direct garden access. A regularly serviced Worcester A-rated combination boiler is also housed within the property.

The enclosed rear garden features brick walling, timber fencing, attractive flower borders, cottage-style planting and a paved patio, providing a lovely space for relaxing and entertaining.

The first floor provides four bedrooms, family bathroom and versatile Bedroom Five/Study. Bedrooms Two and Three both measure approximately 14'9" x 13'4", with Bedroom Two benefiting from a box bay window and built-in wardrobe, while Bedroom Three enjoys an elevated green outlook and original cast-iron fireplace.

A bespoke solid Ash staircase leads to the exceptional principal suite. The principal bedroom measures approximately 21'7" x 11'6" and features skylight and rear windows with an elevated green outlook, together with extensive bespoke built-in storage.

The principal en-suite measures approximately 14'5" x 5'8" and includes a bath, concealed-cistern WC and twin contemporary wash hand basins set into a distinctive retro teak unit, plus extensive storage and heated towel rail.

A separate 3'0" x 5'1" sauna with Harvia system, tiled floor and built-in seating provides a particularly unusual luxury feature.

The loft offers additional boarded storage and houses the solar panel inverter and battery storage. The property has recently benefited from nine solar panels with battery storage, helping to reduce electricity costs, as well as secondary glazing and other thoughtful modern improvements.
