Your new home


A classic red brick frontage welcomes you from the street, with a vintage tiled path adding to the kerb appeal. Inside, your twenty four feet deep through lounge features those original timber floorboards flowing from front to back. Dual aspect, the natural light is amplified by the pristine white Farrow & Ball palette. Cast iron radiators sit below the windows and there's a pair of chimney breasts, each home to a blank modern hearth.

To the rear your extended kitchen is also dual aspect and totals more than 125 square feet. Smoky slate vinyl runs underfoot between twin banks of mint green Pluck cabinets, crowned by striking Corian worktops. Still more natural light flows in from the skylight above the dining area, and Crittal style patio doors take up the rear wall, seamlessly giving out onto your secluded rear garden.

Out here you have a low maintenance expanse of pebbles, flanked by flourishing greenery and handsome grey timber fencing.

Upstairs and your principal bedroom is a substantial double of 150 square feet, with twin double glazed sash windows, tranquil pastel paintwork and more vintage timber floorboards underfoot. Bedroom two is another double, in white and blonde with a garden view.

Your skylit family bathroom finishes things in true boutique style, with white letterbox tiling seamlessly giving way to Forest Green paintwork, all surrounding a walk in rainfall shower, separate tub and slate grey style vinyl.

Finally, your boiler and plumbing are already set up for an incoming loft extension, if you ever want to follow in the footsteps of your neighbours and expand upwards. A great family find that can grow with you and yours.
