If you lived here...

A tiled pathway leads to the bold front door, its dark finish set softly against the light exterior to create a welcoming first impression. Stepping inside, the hallway draws you towards the pair of reception rooms, where a graceful archway links the two and encourages a natural sense of flow. At the front, a wide window bathes the room in daylight, while the rear opens directly to the garden, making these spaces ideal for both lively gatherings and quiet evenings alike.
The kitchen unfolds in a bright, linear layout, finished with glossy cabinetry and pale worktops that keep everything looking fresh. Light streams in through a skylight and glazed doors, highlighting the dining area where family meals spill easily into the garden beyond. Here, the outdoor space is paved for ease of use and privacy, with a smart studio at the far end offering the perfect spot for a home office, creative base or gym. There may also be scope, subject to planning, to extend into the reception rooms, opening up the entire floor into a flowing, contemporary hub. A neatly finished guest WC adds convenience to the ground floor.
Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms are complemented by a calm, modern bathroom, complete with neutral tiling and a fitted bath with rain shower. The top floor presents two further bedrooms, one with eaves storage, alongside a stylish bathroom with patterned flooring and skylight above, creating a light and uplifting finish to this versatile family home.

A word from the owner...

"Melford Road is a truly special place, filled with so many memories. Many of my childhood friends still live here, which says everything about how much people love it. It’s a peaceful street where neighbours are more like family – always friendly, always looking out for each other. The area is really well connected, with excellent transport links, and the high street is right on the doorstep for shops, cafés, and daily conveniences. There’s a real sense of belonging here, with the perfect balance of calm and city life. I’ve cherished every moment and know the next owner will too."
