A Home Designed for Everyday Living

From the moment you arrive, this ideally positioned home makes a wonderful first impression. A generous front driveway — a highly sought-after feature in this part of the area — provides convenient off-street parking and leads you through to the welcoming entrance hallway with access into the cellar.

To the front of the property, the elegant bay-fronted through lounge is filled with natural light and rich in character, featuring warm wood flooring, charming cast iron fireplaces and useful built-in storage to the chimney recesses. The space naturally lends itself to both relaxed evenings in and entertaining alike, with a cosy living area to the front and a dedicated dining space to the rear. Flowing seamlessly through to the kitchen, it creates an easy and sociable layout for modern family life.

The fitted kitchen offers a range of wall and base units, work surface with tiled surround and a freestanding cooker — everything needed for day-to-day cooking and hosting family meals. Direct access to the rear garden also makes outdoor dining and summer gatherings wonderfully convenient.

Completing the ground floor is a substantial second reception room, beautifully bright thanks to large double doors opening onto the garden and complemented by another attractive feature fireplace. Versatile and inviting, this room could serve equally well as a home office, nursery or additional sitting room. Subject to the usual planning permissions, there is also exciting potential to incorporate the space into the kitchen to create a spacious open-plan kitchen/dining/living environment tailored to modern lifestyles.

Space for Family and Guests

The first floor hosts three well-proportioned double bedrooms, each continuing the home’s sense of character and charm with additional feature fireplaces. The main bedroom enjoys a beautiful bay window, enhancing both the sense of space and the abundance of natural light.

Also on this floor is a family bathroom, alongside a separate WC — a practical feature for busy households and visiting guests alike.

Stairs rise to the second-floor loft conversion, where two further good-sized bedrooms offer flexible accommodation, complete with useful eaves storage. A convenient shower room completes this floor, making it an ideal space for older children, guests or working from home.

Outdoor Living

To the rear, the private garden combines a laid-to-lawn area with a paved seating terrace, offering plenty of scope to create a peaceful outdoor retreat for relaxing, entertaining and enjoying the warmer months.
