This delightful bay-fronted, end-of-terrace Victorian house has been in current ownership for 12 years and has undergone many improvement works within this time. Additions to the property include a refitted en suite, utility room side extension and a stunning kitchen / breakfast room by Cambridge Kitchens and Bathrooms.
The entrance hall has a striking stained glass door and fan light, plenty of understair storage and stairs leading to the first floor. There is a spacious bay-fronted sitting / dining room, finished with original wood flooring and a feature fireplace with attractive tiled inserts. The kitchen / breakfast room has been fitted with a comprehensive range of units and includes various integrated appliances. The room benefits from a dual aspect and is underfloor heated throughout. The dining area has Velux windows and bi-folding doors to the private rear garden. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a separate utility room with further fitted units, space and plumbing for additional appliances and access to a cloakroom W.C.
Upstairs, the bedrooms are split over 2 floors, the first of which houses the bathroom and 3 double bedrooms. Bedroom 1 is particularly spacious, has a built-in cupboard and bay-window. The final bedroom is located on the second floor and includes contemporary fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room. There is additional eaves storage in the bedroom and landing area.
The property is set back behind a walled front garden, which is predominantly slate shingled with stocked beds and a quarry tiled pathway to the entrance. The west-facing rear garden extends over 60ft (19m) and is a peaceful oasis, predominantly laid to lawn and stocked with a mature array of plants, shrubs and trees including a crab apple. There is a vegetable patch, storage shed and several fruit bushes at the foot of the garden (including loganberry, black current and red current) and a secure gate leading to a shared pathway to the rear, only accessible for the neighbouring terraced houses.
