THE PROPERTY

The property offers upwards of 1750 sq ft including 4 double bedrooms, a kitchen diner approaching 20ft, a through lounge approaching 27ft, 2 bathrooms and 3 W/C's as well and front and rear gardens.

The property is visually striking for many reasons, and we highly recommend buyers view our HD VIDEO walk through and our 360 DERGREE VIRTUAL TOUR as these along with the images and floor plan will offer great insight into what the property offers. We'll note some of the features many buyers will consider stand out, as well as some great features that won't be noticed in any of the visuals:


1.There are an array of period features. The house has been refurbished in such a way the character features pop alongside the modern aspects of the house. A great example of this is the cast iron fireplace in the lounge which blends with a contemporary colour palette in the room (both décor and furnishings)

2.Some clever tech in the house - The lamps connect to the wall switches around the room (you can connect any lamp to a light switch on the wall)

3.The flooring is a high quality, luxury flooring in wood effect. This type of flooring is used in high specification developments for several of its qualities such as being hard wearing and moisture resistant.

4.The kitchen is German designed (Hacker Classic) and has piped underfloor heating. The worktops, sink and splash back are made from one piece of sleek stainless steel making the lines of the kitchen seamless. They are 70mm deep with 4 workstations at approx. 90mm wide. It also features a stunning '5 burner' modular induction hob

5.The bathroom has a designer stone bath, Italian designer fixtures, oversized shower, integrated fitted oak drawers with a full width fitted mirror with demister pad

6.We ask buyers to note the vintage style metal radiators. Unlike many radiators which are normally unattractive and functional items only, these are stylish and attractive to look at

7.As the windows are easterly and westerly facing the sun enters the house through the day. As you will note the windows in many of the rooms are a great size especially the bay windows. What is particularly nice is the kitchen area features glazed patio doors as well as two side windows allowing light to flood this space

8.A hidden feature is the cables to the TV and speakers which are within the walls to avoid unsightly wires being on display

9.The loft room still has the ever-popular eaves storage and the en suite has natural light and ventilation by way of roof light

10.You will note that the garden is south westerly facing allowing the owners enjoyment of the sun through the day

11.There is also a secure metal bike store in the garden, which can be dismantled and reassembled in the generous front garden should the new owner prefer
