About
The Accommodation The wonderfully presented ground floor accommodation opens into a welcoming entrance hall featuring exposed wooden flooring, and an attractive staircase leading to the upper level.
To the front of the home sits an elegant sitting room bathed in natural light from a charming bay window fitted with plantation shutters, complete with picture rails, built-in alcove cabinetry with shelving, and a working log-burner set upon a sleek hearth.
Directly adjacent, a sophisticated study/dining room showcases a striking period fireplace with detailed tile surrounds, exposed timber floors, built-in shelving, and direct access down to the lower ground floor.
Continuing down the hall past the downstairs cloakroom/utility room, the home extends into an extended kitchen/breakfast room.
This stunning heart-of-the-home features modern, shaker-style grey cabinetry, quartz-style work surfaces with a herringbone tiled backsplash, integrated appliances and rich dark wood flooring.
The light-filled dining and lounge extension at the rear boasts a vaulted ceiling with Velux skylights and double doors that open out directly onto the garden decking, creating a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living.
Ascending to the first floor, a bright central landing leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom.
The principal bedroom offers a tranquil retreat, appointed with half-height sage panelling, built-in wardrobes and a sash window .
The second bedroom is a charming double, featuring bespoke fitted storage, a painted sunburst ceiling detail, and elevated views to the rear.
Completing the sleeping quarters, the cozy third bedroom serves perfectly as a nursery or study with a soft, warm palette and front-facing sash window.
The floor is served by a modern family bathroom, fully tiled in crisp white with contrasting patterned floor tiles, incorporating a curved bath with a rainfall showerhead, a floating wash hand basin, and a heated towel rail.
Outside The front of this handsome Victorian red-brick property, a smart block-paved driveway provides off-street parking, complete with an EV charging point and an inviting pitched storm porch leading to the entrance.
Moving to the rear, French doors from the kitchen extension open onto a magnificent, elevated composite deck laid in a herringbone pattern with sleek dark balustrading, creating an ideal sun-drenched terrace for alfresco dining and entertaining.
Steps lead down from the deck past a lower paved patio area to a generous, long rear garden flanked by timber sleeper borders, mature hedging, and established trees, offering a private outdoor sanctuary with scenic views over the surrounding town.
