House For Sale £240,000
Overview
Extensively renovated to a high standard about 8 years ago, 14 Reform Lane is a beautifully presented, stone-built detached property in a very central location in the heart of the Lerwick Lanes area, just up from Commercial Street.
Offering a very contemporary interior housed within a traditional exterior, the double glazed accommodation is arranged over two floors, the ground floor comprising a striking, good-sized living room, stylish, very contemporary kitchen / diner with integral appliances, a separate utility room and downstairs WC. Upstairs there are two generously proportioned double bedrooms each with its own well-appointed en-suite shower room.
Heating is provided by 'Dimplex DuoHeat' storage / convector heaters downstairs and panel heaters upstairs. A multi-fuel stove in the living provides a cosy alternative heat source.
The property provides very comfortable two bedroom accommodation which if not used as a permanent home, would particularly suit rental use given the location and that both bedrooms have an en-suite.
Accommodation
Entry to the property is through a small garden area to the front of the house enclosed by a low wall and gate to the lane, with well-stocked flower beds to either side, plus a timber deck to the north side of the house which provides a pleasant outside seating area which gets the morning and evening sun.
The front door opens to a hallway with doors to the living room to the left, and the kitchen and a handy additional toilet to the right, the toilet comprising a white contemporary style WC & wash hand basin with mirror over. A built-in cupboard in the hallway below the carpeted stair to the first floor provides space for coats and general storage, whilst the same slate tile effect vinyl flooring continues into the kitchen and toilet
With its striking decor, the living room is an attractive, good-sized room with a south-facing window to the lane with wooden slatted blind. The fireplace houses a multi-fuel stove providing a cosy alternative heat source to the storage heater / convector heater, and the satellite TV point is linked to points in the kitchen and both bedrooms. (Note the centre light fitting will be replaced prior to sale).
On the other side of the hallway is the contemporary style kitchen / diner which has space for a table and chairs and ample fitted units in a white finish set off by grey wood effect worktops with matching upstands and white 'brick' tiled splash backs, the units featuring a range of integral 'Neff' appliances including an oven, concealed integrated fridge / freezer & dishwasher, plus a ceramic hob with stainless steel & glass cooker hood over housed in an extra peninsula unit. Again the room enjoys a south-facing aspect, the window also having a slatted blind; there is also a second window behind the sink. Four pendant light fittings supplemented by additional worktop lighting provide plenty of artificial light.
Off the kitchen is a useful additional utility room with further fitted units and a second sink, plumbing for a washing machine and space for a tumble dryer etc. (washing machine included), and the same vinyl flooring. Additional storage space under the stairs, and pressurised 'Albion Ultra Steel' hot water tank.
The carpeted stair from the hallway leads up to a small landing again with south-facing window overlooking the lane. Doors to either side lead to the two generous, carpeted double bedrooms each of which has a fully tiled en-suite shower room fitted out to the same high standard and including a shower enclosure with glazed screen / door plus a white WC and wash hand basin set on a fitted cupboard unit which provides useful storage space and has a mirror / light fitting over. Both en-suites have a ladder style heated towel rail / radiator.
The two bedrooms also face south with windows to the lane, the second room to the left having another window to the east gable enjoying a sideways view over to Bressay Sound. This room also has a hatch with pull-down ladder which provides easy access to plenty of floored storage space in the loft which has a light fitted for convenience.
On-street parking is available close by the house at the top of Reform Lane.
