Conveniently situated within easy walking distance of the town centre, mainline railway station and an excellent range of local amenities, the property successfully combines period character with modern practicality.
A splendid Edwardian Home built in 1906, the property is constructed of attractive red brick elevations beneath a pitched tiled roof, the house extends to approximately 1,163 sq ft of beautifully presented accommodation arranged over two floors.
The current owners have undertaken a programme of careful maintenance and improvement during their ownership, including significant roof works, creating a home that is ready for immediate occupation whilst still offering exciting opportunities for future enhancement.
A welcoming entrance hall leads through to a light and spacious bay-fronted sitting room, where an attractive period fireplace forms a focal point and reinforces the character synonymous with homes of this era.
Beyond lies a versatile snug/family room, providing valuable additional reception space ideally suited to modern living, whether as a playroom, home office, reading room or informal sitting area.

The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, with a southerly outlook, enjoying generous proportions and an attractive original fireplace which further enhances the property's period charm.
