The
private position adds to the appeal, creating a peaceful environment despite being moments from the University and within easy reach of the city centre.

naturally. The principal reception room is notably large, featuring an open stone fireplace, currently fitted with a gas fire, a bay window to the front, and bifold doors opening directly out to the rear garden. Across the hall, a second bay fronted
reception room offers a versatile additional living space, well suited as a family room, playroom or home office.

The kitchen has been designed and fitted by SystemSix and provides an excellent working and social space. A large central island with Star Galaxy granite worktop incorporates a sink, boiling and cold water tap, waste disposal and induction hob with retractable downdraft extractor. Siemens appliances, including twin oven/microwave, dishwasher, freezer and full hight fridge, handleless cabinets, space for a
wine fridge and LED lighting all contribute to a clean, modern specification. French doors lead out to one of the deckings and the rear garden, extending the dining and entertaining space for indoor/outdoor living. A separate utility room, finished to the same standard, provides further storage, appliance space and direct access to both the garden and garage. A well presented cloakroom with travertine stone finishes
completes the ground floor.

The first-floor galleried landing is bright and spacious, featuring a full-height window, a large airing cupboard and access to a large partly boarded loft with light. The principal bedroom includes a modern en-suite with travertine tiling, walk-in wet-room style shower and bespoke cabinetry. A second double bedroom also benefits from its own en-suite, finished with high-quality materials and underfloor heating. Three
further bedrooms offer flexible accommodation, suitable for family, guests or home working. The family bathroom is finished to a high standard with a freestanding stone bath, separate walk-in shower with Merlyn glass frameless enclosure with drench head. A wall mounted stone basin with glass worktop and toilet with Geberit in wall
concealed cistern and flush place finish the space with underfloor heating. Dual access from both the landing and bedroom three allows the space to function either as a shared bathroom or a private en-suite if required.

The rear garden is private, level and low maintenance, incorporating two sizeable
timber decked areas that capture light at different times of day. Mature planting, including fruit trees and a double wooden gate provides optional side vehicle access. The front garden is well kept, and the block-paved driveway offers parking for at
least four vehicles in addition to the detached double garage which could easily be
converted subject to the necessary planning consents.
