About
Believed to date back to circa 1864, this charming period home offers flexible & well-proportioned accommodation.
Full of character and adaptable living space, the property benefits from the option of ground floor bedroom, a bright sunroom, enclosed courtyard garden and a larger-than-average garage with electric door, making it an appealing choice for a variety of purchasers.
Entering the property, you are welcomed by a central hallway which provides access to the principal ground floor accommodation, while stairs rise to the first floor.
Positioned to the left of the hallway is a well-proportioned lounge enjoying a pleasant front aspect through a large window, allowing plenty of natural light to fill the space.
Currently arranged as a ground floor bedroom by the owner, the room demonstrates the flexibility of the accommodation and could continue to serve as a bedroom for those seeking single-level living.
Equally, with its built-in shelving, feature fireplace recess and generous proportions, it would make an excellent lounge, snug or home office, adapting easily to a purchaser's individual needs.
Beyond this room, the accommodation opens into an additional reception room, creating a sociable living environment.
Offering ample space for a family dining table and additional furniture, this room forms the heart of the home and is perfectly suited to both everyday dining and entertaining guests.
Its central position provides a natural flow between the living accommodation and kitchen, while the adjoining snug to the rear enhances the sense of space and flexibility, making it a wonderful area for gatherings with family and friends, or a quiet spot to read or work.
Adjacent to the dining room is the kitchen, fitted with a range of wall and base units providing ample storage and worktop space.
The kitchen leads through to a useful utility room, which in turn gives access to a ground floor shower room. The first floor comprises two bedrooms and a family bathroom.
Bedroom One is a well-proportioned double bedroom, whilst Bedroom Two offers comfortable accommodation for a guest room, nursery or home office.
The bedrooms are served by a Jack and Jill, family shower room.
A particular feature of the property is the sunroom, positioned to the rear of the garage and offering an additional versatile reception space that enjoys a pleasant outlook towards the courtyard garden.
Flooded with natural light, this area provides the perfect spot to relax with a morning coffee, enjoy a hobby space or create a peaceful reading room away from the main accommodation.
The sunroom opens directly into a larger-than-average garage, providing excellent storage and workshop potential.
Benefiting from an electric up-and-over door, the garage offers secure parking if required, while still leaving ample room for bicycles, tools and general household storage, making it a highly practical addition to the home.
