This attractive Victorian bay-fronted house has been thoughtfully extended and offers charming and finely decorated accommodation with attractive period features typical of the era and warm pastel colour schemes throughout the three elegant and greatly improved floors. The property is entered via an attractive reception hallway giving access to a superb double length sitting room which widens to one end and enjoys a feature bay window, dual aspects, attractive period fireplaces, bespoke book shelving and a useful under stairs cupboard. The kitchen has been redesigned to provide an extensive range of classic low level cabinets and drawers with painted hand-built open shelving above, worksurface space and original tiled flooring. The dining area extends from the kitchen and has a vaulted ceiling and direct access to a patio area and garden. All in all, this is a very light and practical space which is perfect for entertaining guests. The first floor landing leads to the very impressive family bathroom suite with separate double walk-in shower and sash window with shutters. There are two light and spacious bedrooms which both benefit from fine period feature fireplaces and built-in wardrobes. The second floor master bedroom provides a large walk-in storage cupboard and views down the garden. Outside, the property is set behind a pretty front garden with dwarf wall and hedging, tiled pathway and timber store. The rear garden measures over 100ft in length which is unusually rare for the area. The garden has various private seating areas, borders of various attractive mature trees and shrubs, lawned area and useful timber storage shed.
