Externally, the house bears the archetypal features of the era with multi pane, sash windows and a traditional front door. Stepping inside, it is clearly a beautifully maintained home with solid oak floors and fresh white walls running through the ground floor reception rooms, offering a blank canvas for new owners. Once two rooms, they have since been opened to create one sociable, dual aspect space, leading out to the patio which becomes a natural extension of the home during summer. There is space for relaxation, a workspace or for formal dining, although there is space to eat and socialise in the kitchen breakfast room downstairs.
Stepping down to the kitchen, there are clearly defined areas for formal dining at the table, or informal dining at the central breakfast bar. The room is completely open allowing space for a sofa, ideal for families or socialising. Modern cabinetry provides a wealth of storage alongside several integrated appliances to include a dishwasher, gas hob and extractor fan, dual ovens and a fridge freezer, so you can move straight in with relative ease.
Returning upstairs, the stone tiled bathroom is on the ground floor level with a shower over the bath, while two double bedrooms sit on the first floor. Both rooms are double with walls of luxuriously spacious built-in wardrobes which maximise their floor space. Bedroom two also enjoys access to the roof terrace which links down via spiral staircase to the ground floor, giving the whole house a circular sense of flow during the warmer seasons.
