The property has a private entrance into a welcoming lobby hall, with useful understairs cupboard and wardrobe storage for coats and shoes. The short internal hall passes the principal double bedroom featuring a bay window with fitted shutters, a show of wardrobes to one side, and also space for a desk, chest of drawers and/or vanity dressing unit. The internal hall continues past a well-presented bathroom with bath/shower fitting that opens into a lobby which in turn links with a light and spacious sitting room. This room has immediate access onto the south facing sunken sun terrace (through double doors), making an ideal layout for entertaining.

Shallow steps lead up to a large lawned garden (22.19m X 5.8 metres) with vegetable planters, level lawn and further private sun terrace with mulching area and shed behind. The formal sitting room extends onto a separate dining area of sufficient scale to comfortably accommodate a breakfast table, forming the hub of the home. Adjoining the dining area is a fully equipped galley kitchen. The property retains much of its period charm and has been sympathetically modernised with pleasant interior design choices making a comfortable home. There may be potential for enlargement / external extension (adding a second bedroom), subject to the receipt of freehold consent and planning permission at additional expense. In all, this is a very well presented home, ideal for first time buyers, young professionals, down sizers, investors and/or those looking for a pied-a-terre.
