About
On the ground floor, two former reception rooms have been combined to form a dual aspect through room extending from front to back.
This versatile space comfortably accommodates both a relaxing seating area, centred around an attractive feature fireplace and a dining area ideal for everyday living and entertaining.
The galley kitchen offers extensive storage and comes complete with integrated oven, hob, extractor fan, fridge and freezer.
Beyond the kitchen, a useful rear vestibule provides dedicated laundry space for your washing machine and condenser tumble dryer.
Completing the ground floor is a bathroom accessed from the hall, incorporating a convenient downstairs WC. The first floor hosts two double bedrooms.
One benefits from a small en-suite shower room, while the other is complemented by a deep walk-in storage cupboard.
Rising to the second floor, the upgraded loft space provides valuable additional space, further enhanced by its own ensuite shower room.
For comfort there is gas central heating and uPVC double glazing with a large Velux skylight in the loft room with views of the distant fells above neighbouring properties.
Externally, the property enjoys a surprisingly generous outdoor space, benefitted further by its desirable end-terrace position which allows for both pedestrian and vehicular access.
Immediately adjacent to the kitchen is a hardstanding area, perfect for outdoor seating and dining.
A step leads up to a lawn, providing a pleasant area for relaxation or play and beyond this is a gravel area offering space to park a small car if desired.
In addition, there is convenient on-street parking available to the front of the property.
