A particularly handsome detached period home dating from the 1920s, having undergone an extensive programme of refurbishment. The result is an exceptionally well-presented home, retaining the charm and character of its period origins whilst offering contemporary living. In all about 0.25 acres.

These rooms provide considerable flexibility, including the potential to create a fifth bedroom if desired. Two double bedrooms are positioned on the ground floor, one benefiting from an en-suite shower room, the other with built-in period cabinets. A separate family bathroom with a freestanding bath and shower serve this level, whilst a practical utility room provides a sink, appliance space and access onto the rear terrace.

The first floor is equally impressive, with a landing incorporating useful storage and two further double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has dual-aspect windows, fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room, whilst the second bedroom features fitted wardrobes and dual-aspect windows.

In addition, there is a store located to the right-hand side of the front elevation, providing an additional storage space although could be easily adaptable for use as a gym/studio subject to the relevant permissions.
