Lovingly maintained by the same owner for over a decade, the property benefits from a beautifully executed side return extension, completed in 2016, creating a spacious and light-filled open-plan kitchen and dining area that flows seamlessly out to a tranquil and sun-drenched garden—perfect for entertaining and everyday living alike.
Set to the front of the home, the reception room is a characterful and inviting space, showcasing original features including stripped wooden floorboards, a striking feature fireplace with shelving on either side, and a large bay window that bathes the room in natural light. Complemented by stylish modern downlighting, this room effortlessly blends classic charm with contemporary touches. The extended kitchen and dining area is the heart of the home, featuring timeless shaker-style cabinetry and a sociable peninsula layout that wraps around to provide both practicality and visual appeal, elevating the sociable vibe of the room. A generous dining area is set beneath skylights, flooding the space with light, while French doors open directly onto the garden, encouraging an indoor-outdoor lifestyle.
The South-facing garden is a true highlight—peaceful, private and beautifully presented. Enclosed by attractive fencing and charming brick walls, with a wrap-around paved area, raised rear bed and even a palm tree! This lovely garden offers a sun-soaked oasis for hosting guests, enjoying a morning coffee or indulging green-fingered hobbies.
Also relishing direct access to the garden through elegant French doors, the principal bedroom is a serene retreat, boasting dual-aspect windows and cosy carpets, the ideal setting for lazy weekend mornings. The second double bedroom is equally well-proportioned and thoughtfully styled, featuring wooden floorboards, a charming seascape feature wall and generous storage. The bedrooms are situated at opposite ends of the property, ensuring maximum privacy and flexibility, while the layout allows for the reception and a bedroom to be swapped, should the new owner wish to adapt the use of the space. A notably large and incredibly practical cellar offers extensive storage, perfect for keeping day-to-day living clutter-free.
Of further benefit is the option of secure bicycle storage in the council-run bike garage directly in front of the flat—an extremely sought-after feature in the area. The owners currently rent a space for an incredibly reasonable fee, providing a valuable addition for those with bikes.
