DESCRIPTION: This beautifully presented two double bedroom semi-detached home offers an exceptional balance of space, quality and character.
The property has been comprehensively modernised by the current owner while retaining charming period features, resulting in a stylish yet comfortable home.
Accommodation includes a living room, dining room, modern kitchen, contemporary shower room, generous storage and well-maintained gardens to both the front and rear.
A standout feature is the impressive 18ft x 12ft log cabin, offering excellent versatility.
The current owner has undertaken extensive modernisation, including new windows, a gas boiler, kitchen, bathroom and a new roof.
These updates blend seamlessly with attractive character features, creating a home that is both practical and full of charm.
The front door opens into a welcoming hallway, where decorative glass casts beautiful rainbow reflections across the floor when sunlight shines through.
The living room is a generous space with a front-facing window overlooking the garden and features a striking period fireplace with a decorative tiled hearth and cover.
The cover can be removed to reveal a fully operational open fire. An opening leads through to the dining room, which benefits from large sliding doors opening directly onto the rear garden.
The recently fitted kitchen offers a range of wall and base units with integrated appliances including an oven, hob, extractor and fridge, along with a rear-facing window overlooking the garden.
Also on the ground floor is a useful side passageway with doors at either end, providing access to a utility room and additional storage.
To the first floor are two spacious double bedrooms and a modern shower room.
The principal bedroom is a large double room with two front-facing windows and access to a substantial eaves storage cupboard.
The second bedroom is also a generous double and benefits from two built-in wardrobes and a rear-facing window with views over the garden and park beyond.
The shower room has been recently fitted and comprises a white suite with a walk-in shower and a rear-facing window.
GARDENS AND GROUNDS Outside, the property occupies a generous plot with attractive gardens to both the front and rear.
The front garden is mainly laid to lawn with planted borders and a pathway leading to the front and side access.
The rear garden has been designed for low maintenance and features two decked areas with surrounding patio seating, ideal for outdoor entertaining.
A central pathway leads to the impressive log cabin, currently used as an art studio and home gym, but suitable for a wide variety of uses such as a home office or hobby room.
The garden also benefits from new fencing and offers potential to create a gate providing direct access to the adjoining park.
