About
A deceptively spacious two-bedroom semi-detached home, offering well-proportioned accommodation throughout and a versatile layout that makes excellent use of the available space.
The property features a generous lounge to the front, together with a kitchen/dining room spanning the rear of the house and providing access to both the conservatory and useful side garden room.
The lounge is a comfortable main reception room with a wide bay window overlooking the front garden and a living-flame gas fire providing an attractive focal point.
To the rear, the kitchen/dining room is fitted with a range of gloss wall and base units, offering good storage and workspace alongside space for a dining table and a range of appliances.
The conservatory provides a bright additional reception space with views across the rear garden and direct access outside, while the adjoining garden room runs along the side of the property and offers excellent versatility for storage, hobbies or utility use.
With glazed doors to both the front and rear, it also provides a particularly practical covered link between the two gardens.
Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from its own separate built-in wardrobe/storage area.
The bathroom is notably spacious and fitted with both a panelled bath and separate shower enclosure, together with a vanity wash hand basin and WC.
Externally, the property is set back from Preston Road behind a driveway providing useful off-road parking, with a gravelled front garden incorporating established planting and decorative rockery areas.
To the rear is an enclosed, low-maintenance garden, predominantly laid with decorative gravel and complemented by planted borders and stepping stones.
Overall, this is a well-presented and versatile home offering considerably more accommodation and storage than might initially be expected, with the conservatory, side garden room, generous bathroom and useful outside space adding further appeal.
