Description
The accommodation extends to approximately 1,022 sq ft and includes two inviting reception areas, a refitted kitchen, a ground-floor cloakroom, three bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom. Characterful finishes—including wall panelling, exposed ceiling beams, and a log-burning stove—add texture and personality to the interior, while a charming landscaped garden and detached summer house create extra space for relaxing, entertaining, or working from home.
Ground Floor
The front door opens into a spacious open-plan sitting and dining room, with wood-effect LVT flooring and painted ceiling beams running throughout. Plantation-style shutters have been fitted to every window in the house, giving the interior a smart and consistent finish.
The sitting area is arranged around a stone fireplace with a timber mantel and log-burning stove. A deep green feature wall adds warmth, while fitted cupboards beneath the front window provide useful storage.
The adjoining dining area has ample room for a family-sized table and features painted wall panelling. Bespoke handmade cupboards have been fitted beneath the staircase, providing plenty of storage while making good use of the available space. The two areas sit comfortably alongside one another, creating a practical and sociable living space.
From the dining area, a small step leads through to the kitchen at the rear of the property. This is fitted with Shaker-style units, wood-effect work surfaces and tiled splashbacks. There is an inset sink beneath the window, together with an integrated oven and hob. Further cabinetry provides additional storage and space for the laundry appliances.
A door from the kitchen opens onto the rear garden, and the ground floor is completed by a cloakroom with a WC and wash basin.
First Floor
The first-floor landing leads to three double bedrooms and the family bathroom. Plantation-style shutters continue throughout this floor.
The principal bedroom is a generous room measuring approximately 16' x 10'3". A window to the front brings in plenty of natural light, while panelled detailing behind the bed gives the room a smart finish. There is ample space for freestanding wardrobes, chests of drawers and bedside furniture.
Bedroom two measures approximately 10'3" x 8'8" and is a well-proportioned double room with space for freestanding furniture.
Bedroom three is also arranged as a double and measures approximately 8'8" x 7'11". Either of the smaller bedrooms could equally be used as a guest room or home office if required.
The family bathroom has been refitted with a panelled bath, shower and glazed screen, a vanity wash basin and WC. White metro tiles have been used around the bath and shower, and the shuttered window to the rear brings in natural light.
Garden
The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to provide an attractive outside space that is also straightforward to maintain.
A paved terrace sits immediately behind the house, with room for seating and pots. This leads to a larger gravelled area with plenty of space for an outdoor dining table, making it well suited to summer meals and entertaining. Established shrubs, flowering plants and raised beds soften the garden and bring colour throughout the seasons.
A pathway leads to the timber summer house at the far end of the garden. Measuring approximately 7'10" x 7'9", it has glazed double doors and windows overlooking the garden. It is a useful and flexible addition, whether used as a home office, hobby room or a quiet place to sit.
