The property is set back from Ludgate behind a tarmac driveway with block-paved border that provides both parking and a delightful approach that will impress buyers. With parking being on street for the majority of the houses on Ludgate and the surrounding area, the driveway really is a standout feature.

Ground Floor

As guests enter the home via a secure composite front door, they are immediately brought into the lounge where it is already apparent that this is a very well presented home. Eagle eyed viewers will spot the original wall line where historically a corridor hallway would have been in place and this has been opened to create an even larger room. The fireplace has been capped to leave a lovely open space for an ornament / feature. The room is lovely and bright owing to large bay window which cast natural light over the stunning luxury vinyl tile (lvt) flooring. It’s worth noting that all exterior windows and doors are double glazed.

A door to the rear of the lounge opens to the best area of the house, a glorious open plan dining room with galley kitchen. The owners have opted for a traditional theme with contemporary styles and it works perfectly. The dining room has a continuation of the lvt flooring from the lounge and has an electric log-burner effect fireplace that is brilliantly efficient fitted into the chimney breast. A set of bi-folding doors open to the garden patio at the rear, whilst at the front of the room is the staircase leading up to the first floor. Similar to the initial hallway, the stairwell has been opened up to enlarge the dining room and make good use of the space beneath.

The kitchen is a sensational room. The suite is fitted in the galley-style with two complete rows of attractive units with quartz surfaces running the full way along the room. Along with a wide window to the left, there are two fabulous skylights above. The suite features a range of integrated appliances that will remain as part of the sale. These include a fridge freezer and separate drinks fridge, five burner gas hob with stylish extractor, microwave grill combination, slide and hide fan assisted oven, dishwasher and washing machine. These high-quality appliances are Bosch and Neff branded.

First Floor

The master bedroom is positioned at the front of the house and follows a similar footprint to that of the large lounge below. It is an impressive space with a feature chimney breast at the far wall and plenty of room for a king-sized (or larger) bed and other bedroom furniture. At present the bedroom is has minimal furniture as the owners use the supporting bedroom on this floor (bedroom four) as a walk-in wardrobe. Bedroom four is a good sized single bedroom, and equally ideal to be a home office.

The family bathroom features a modern suite headlined by a long bathtub with shower and screen fitted above. The bath is positioned against the far wall where there is an obscured window allowing in plenty of natural light. The remining suite comprises of a toilet, pedestal wash basin and wall-mounted mirrored cabinet. At the front left of the room there is an airing cupboard housing the gas central heating boiler.

Second Floor

The remaining two bedrooms are on the second floor, which begins with a similar landing space to that below. Near to the top of staircase the original chimney breast has remained in place to provide an attractive feature. The bedrooms on this floor are bedrooms two and three which are at the front and rear of the house respectively.

Both bedrooms span the full width of the house and have a sloped ceiling in places, with a vertical double-glazed window having views over the surrounding area. The view from bedroom three is delightful with it framing the old school building behind, which is one of the reasons the current owner based their office desk here.
