The accommodation includes two reception rooms, a separate kitchen, a utility room, a downstairs WC, two bathrooms and a private rear garden, with the added benefit of permit parking.

Upon entering the property, you are welcomed by a hallway, with the staircase rising ahead to the upper floors and access through to the ground-floor accommodation. Positioned at the front of the home, the living room is a particularly inviting space, offering generous proportions for a range of furnishings. An attractive bay window draws in plenty of natural light, while the fireplace provides a lovely focal point, creating a comfortable setting for everyday living and relaxation.

Located behind the living room is a separate second reception room, which provides further generous accommodation and excellent versatility for the next owner. Whether used as a formal dining room, an additional seating area or a home office, it offers plenty of scope to suit a variety of needs. Glass doors open directly onto the private rear garden, creating a pleasant connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces.

To the rear of the property is a beautifully presented separate kitchen, finished in a stylish design and fitted with a variety of units offering ample storage, alongside generous worktop space for food preparation and cooking. The kitchen also features a large oven and provides additional room for a dining table if desired, while a further door gives direct access to the garden. Completing the ground floor is a useful utility and laundry room, together with a separate downstairs WC, adding further practicality to the accommodation.

On the first floor, there are three bedrooms, all offering comfortable accommodation. The principal bedroom is a particularly generous room, with ample space for a range of bedroom furnishings and an attractive bay window bringing in natural light. A welcome addition is the en-suite shower room, fitted with a shower, wash basin and WC. The two further bedrooms are also of good proportions and provide comfortable spaces for family members, guests or alternative uses. This floor is completed by the family bathroom, which comprises a bath with an overhead shower, wash basin and WC.

The final bedroom is located within the converted loft, providing a spacious additional room with plenty of space for bedroom furnishings. The room benefits from a combination of a dormer window and Velux roof windows, allowing plenty of natural light to enter and creating a versatile additional space within the home.

Outside, the property enjoys a private rear garden, arranged with a patio area immediately adjoining the house, providing an ideal spot for outdoor furniture and dining. Beyond this, the garden continues with a lawned area, creating a pleasant outdoor retreat for relaxing, entertaining and enjoying the warmer months. A particularly useful additional feature is the pedestrian access to the rear, via a gate leading onto a shared pathway between the back gardens of properties on Hamilton Road and Leighton Road, which in turn provides access to Hamilton Road through a secure iron gate. Residents of these roads are provided with a key for the larger gate, offering convenient access for tasks such as bringing bicycles into the garden or carrying out garden maintenance without having to pass through the house.
