The attractive mid-terrace house dates to 1898 and has been skilfully extended and updated in recent years to create a stylish and well-proportioned home. Character features abound, including a stained-glass front door, dado rails and sash windows. Downstairs, an inviting entrance hall opens to a reception room at the front of the house, with a bay window providing good natural light and concertina doors separating the room from a useful study area. At the heart of the home is the spacious kitchen and dining room, lit from above by a series of Velux windows. Adjoining the kitchen is a walk-in pantry, while to the rear of the house there is a stunning sitting room, overlooking the garden. Furthermore, there is a third reception room, a snug, at basement level, as well as a laundry room. The first floor has three good size bedrooms and a family shower room, with a spacious en-suite double bedroom on the second floor which would make a wonderful principal bedroom.

Outside

The house is approached over a private, block-paved driveway with space for two cars, bordered to one side by pretty shrubs. The rear garden is attractively landscaped with a terrace adjoining the house leading along gravelled paths lined by stocks, lavender and other vibrant flowering plants, to a further seating area and a charming summerhouse/garden room at the rear. Mature hedges and trees to either side of the garden provide a high degree of privacy, creating a delightful and peaceful oasis.
