We are delighted to offer for sale this attractive and beautifully presented home, arranged over two spacious levels and thoughtfully extended to create a superb family space.
The property is entered via a charming vestibule featuring a stained glass window and partially glazed door, setting the tone for the character found throughout. The welcoming main hallway showcases a traditional sweeping staircase, with two useful storage cupboards beneath.
To the front, the lounge is a bright and elegant reception room, enhanced by a large bay window, high ceilings and a gas fire, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Returning to the hallway and located to the rear, a versatile study enjoys views over the garden and could equally serve as a playroom or additional reception space if required.
The dining room is a particularly refined room, centred around an original fire surround, providing a wonderful setting for formal entertaining.
A few steps lead down to the impressive extension, where glazing to the side and ceiling forms a striking architectural feature that beautifully links the old with the new. The kitchen is fitted with quality appliances and designed around a central island incorporating storage, a wine fridge and seating for informal dining. Beyond, the family room benefits from dual aspect views and a ceiling window that floods the space with natural light making this a superb everyday living area. A door from the kitchen provides direct access to the rear garden, while a stair case between the kitchen and family room leads to the upper level of the extension.
The upper part of the extension includes a light filled landing which takes advantage of the window placement to the ceiling by the start of the extension. This level also offers a double bedroom with bespoke storage and a stylish shower room, making it ideal as guest accommodation or a teenage retreat.
Returning to the main hallway and ascending the sweeping staircase, the mezzanine level offers a contemporary shower room fitted with a large shower tray, vanity units with inset sink and WC, complemented by traditional radiator.
The main upper floor comprises three bedrooms. Two are generous doubles, with the principle bedroom benefiting from bespoke built-in wardrobes offering both hanging and drawer space. The third bedroom is a comfortable single room, also with a built-in wardrobe.
The loft space is accessed via a fixed ladder from the upper landing and houses the boiler.
Outside, to the front, a manicured garden is enclosed by dwarf granite walls with wrought iron fencing creating separating from the neighbouring property. There is a lock block pathway leading to the entrance, with area of stone chipping and flower beds.
The rear garden is a peaceful and secluded oasis, thoughtfully landscaped to provide two patio areas positioned to enjoy the sun throughout the day. There is a well kept lawn and mature flower beds, creating a delightful outdoor setting.
A wide single garage is situated to the rear of the garden and is fitted with power, lighting and an electric door, while also providing off street parking for one vehicle. The rear lane, which is council owned, is well maintained and benefits from street lighting along with it being re-tarred in recent years.
