About
Located in the popular road, Bensham Lane, you will find this lovely Victorian property which has easy access to the local bus stops and walking distance to local shops.
The property has lovely curb appeal and has been fully renovated by the current owners. A complete new roof was installed in 2025 as well as a new boiler.
New carpets have been fitted recently and on entering the house you enter a hallway which was created during the refurbishment.
There is an amazing mix of original features of the house with modern refurbishments including plantation shutters to the front of the house and oak wooden flooring throughout the ground floor.
Through an arch you enter a large kitchen/diner which is dual aspect and consists of a shiny white kitchen with integrated appliances, including a dishwasher and black granite worktops.
The dining room has maintained the original Victorian fireplace and cornices and has a lovely bay window giving great light to the area.
This is a great space for cooking and entertaining with family and friends.
The hallway leads to a large living room which has a large log burner which provides amazing heat when in use, it also provides a lovely cosy atmosphere.
The living room is dual aspect and is a flexible space, this room leads through double doors to the amazing garden which has been lovingly maintained by the current owners.
It is an oasis of calm and offers a great space to enjoy with family and friends, comprising both a patio and artificial grass area with borders of established plants and trees, which all make this an easy to maintain garden.
There is also a large brick built and very useful shed at the bottom of the garden which is great for storage. There is also an external light to enable the garden to be used after dark.
The stairs, which are bespoke to the house, lead to the first floor where there is a sizeable landing with a large window. Two bedrooms and a bathroom are accessed on this floor.
