Offered chain free, the property benefits from two bathrooms, a private south-facing garden and ample side access for additional parking and storage.

Built in the 1930s, the house retains a number of original features while having been updated over the years. The ground floor begins with a spacious reception hall leading to all the principal rooms, together with a convenient cloakroom/WC. To the front, the substantial living room features an original fireplace, creating a welcoming space to relax and unwind.

To the rear, the dining room, sun room and kitchen offer excellent scope for reconfiguration, with the potential to create a bright, open-plan kitchen, dining and family space ideally suited to modern living. There is also further potential to extend, subject to the necessary planning permissions.

Upstairs, a generous landing leads to four well-proportioned bedrooms, a family bathroom and an en-suite to the principal bedroom. The loft provides useful additional storage, with potential for future conversion, subject to the relevant consents.

Outside, the private, level south-facing rear garden is a particular highlight, predominantly laid to lawn and offering an ideal setting for outdoor entertaining and family life. Convenient side access provides ample space for multiple vehicles, a boat or motorhome, while a detached garage offers additional flexibility. There is also potential to relocate the garage alongside the house, subject to feasibility, creating an even larger rear garden.
