The Dwelling
Dating from circa 1890, this attractive late Victorian home retains much of the charm and character associated with its period, whilst benefiting from a thoughtful programme of improvements by the current vendor. The property has been carefully renovated throughout, including the creation of a versatile loft conversion and landscaping of the rear garden. The result is a well-presented and characterful home, offering well-proportioned and flexible accommodation arranged over three floors, with a pleasing blend of period features and contemporary living.
Accommodation
The entrance hall leads into the principal reception rooms. The sitting room, positioned at the front of the property, is centred around a feature fireplace and benefits from an attractive bay window, with double doors opening into the dining room. A further feature fireplace creates a focal point, whilst a door leads through to the rear porch, offering useful additional space and potential to further enhance the ground floor, subject to the necessary consents.
The kitchen is fitted with a good range of cabinetry and solid timber worktops, providing a practical and characterful space for everyday living. Beyond is a useful utility room and cloakroom, with provision for white goods.
The first floor provides two well-proportioned bedrooms, with the principal bedroom enjoying a feature fireplace, together with a stylish family bathroom.
The second floor, created as part of the loft conversion, provides a particularly versatile and light-filled additional bedroom, with Velux windows and an adjoining cloakroom. This space could equally serve as a generous bedroom, home office or additional living area.
Garden
The garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to make the most of the available space. Steps rise from the rear of the property to a well-maintained lawn, bordered by established planting, mature shrubs and attractive flower beds. To the rear, a beautifully paved patio provides an ideal setting for alfresco dining and outdoor entertaining. A useful garden shed is also situated within the garden, providing storage.
