About
A traditional 1930s semi-detached home combining classic tudor-style elevations with a driveway, garage and generously proportioned rooms throughout.
The property sits behind a neat frontage of clipped box hedging and lavender, with a paved and shingle driveway providing off-road parking and leading to the integral garage, while a covered porch shelters the glazed front door.
Inside, the entrance hall leads through to two well-proportioned reception rooms.
The main living room is centred around a feature fireplace and flows through an open archway into a bright garden room, currently arranged as an informal dining and sitting space with garden views on two sides.
A separate, more formal dining room sits to the front of the house, again with its own fireplace and a wide bay window that fills the room with natural light, making it equally suited to entertaining or everyday family life.
The kitchen/breakfast room runs along the rear of the property, fitted with cream gloss units, wood-effect worktops, a gas hob and space for a breakfast table, and connects conveniently through to the garden room beyond.
A ground floor WC completes the downstairs accommodation.
Upstairs, the landing gives access to three bedrooms, including a well-proportioned principal room and a second double with a decorative fireplace surround and fitted wardrobes, plus a smaller third room currently used for storage and ideal as a study or nursery.
These are served by a family bathroom fitted with a panelled bath, a separate curved shower enclosure with glass block screening, a pedestal basin and low-level WC.
The enclosed rear garden is a real highlight, laid mainly to lawn and bordered by mature planting, with a paved seating area, established shrubs and a brick outbuilding offering useful additional storage or workshop space, all accessed via a gravelled side path.
Offered with no onward chain, this is a well-maintained family home.
