Originally the house would have been a four apartment (two public rooms and two bedrooms) home, the roof space developed, decades ago, to create two additional bedrooms, one of which features a smart, compact ensuite shower room.

The kitchen has been extended both to the side of the house and to the rear to provide a larger breakfasting sized kitchen, with three windows to two sides (front and rear) The ground floor bathroom has been refitted as a “wet room” shower room, complemented by the smartly fitted ensuite upstairs (to Bed 3).

As clients will see from the photographs, the kitchen is of a modern standard with cream high-gloss units and solid oak worktops, to the back of which are cream coloured “metro” wall tiles.

Appliances include - a range-style cooker with stainless-steel back splash-panel and a cooker-hood, washing-machine, tumble-dryer, fridge-freezer, and dishwasher.

All windows are double glazed, the majority of which are uPVC framed, the upstairs bedrooms featuring quality timber-framed units and a wood-framed double glazed Velux window illuminating the stairwell to the first floor.

Central heating is mains gas and here there is a modern combination boiler (Ideal Logic Combi c30).

As clients will see from the floor plan four of the rooms downstairs feature box bay windows which help to accentuate the feeling of space, with good ceiling height, and with the two public rooms being particularly fine rooms featuring original picture rails and coving, The lounge having a fireplace with a living flame, coal effect, gas fire.

The garden is rather charming; the front garden has a rectangular area of grass bordered to the pavement by retaining wall with mature privet hedge and to the house by a well-stocked shrubbery bed.

There is well established planting to either side boundary and a rising monobloc drive extends to the side of the house where there is a concrete hardstanding area.

Slabbed steps lead to the front of the house and a monobloc path which extends around the side of the house, via a gate, to the rear garden.

The rear garden is very private and has, initially, a sheltered monobloc patio with steps leading up to a lawn area with a feature curved, brick-built, garden wall with planting above.

A further set of steps ascends to a tucked away “secret” top patio, which in fairness is a little overgrown. To the side of the main garden area is a timber shed.
