Approached via level ground, this attractive bay fronted property enjoys tile hung and rendered elevations. The neat block paved driveway runs down the side of the property which is illuminated at night via discrete low level outdoor lighting. The garden is accessed through a security gate which leads to the rear garden.
Once inside the house, you'll immediately notice the crisp, clean lines and attention to detail, the current owners have put into the making of this wonderful family home.
The light flows beautifully through the house, via large bay & picture windows, and the wider than previous footprint adds a sense of grandeur. The beautifully made, generous staircase sweeps through 2 floors and again, the extended footprint allows for larger bedrooms / bathrooms on every floor in addition to a separate cloakroom and WC on the ground floor.
The ground floor accommodation is well designed and practical, yet styled tastefully with stripped wood 1920s doors and oak wood floors. A grown up sitting room sits separately at the front of the house whilst the open plan kitchen dining room is a great family space at the rear, with direct access to the west facing garden.

The separate utility room follows suit and offers a great space for laundry with a handy butler sink.
To the first and second floors, you'll find five double bedrooms, all of which are laid to plush grey carpeting, enjoying white or muted paint palettes with pops of colour. The second floor loft conversion has been done so excellently and boasts a spacious landing with turning staircase in keeping with the original, and enjoys fantastic ceiling height.
