The property can be entered via a composite and glazed panel door into the good-sized sitting room, with carpeted flooring and a window to the front. At the rear of the room a doorway leads through to the hallway, with two sets of stairs rising to the first floor and lower ground accommodation and doorways leading to the storage room and bathroom. The hallway flooring has been laid to laminate wood flooring which continues into the modern fitted bathroom. The bathroom has been fitted with a white three-piece suite comprising, panel bath with an electric fitted shower over, low level WC and a pedestal wash hand basin. There is contemporary splash back tiling to all wet areas and a large obscure glazed window to the rear. Next to the bathroom is a useful storage room, ideal for housing additional white goods and large items.
To the lower ground floor is the spacious open plan lounge/dining/kitchen area. Within the lounge there is an ornate feature fireplace with a wooden surround and an electric stove heater, a doorway providing access to the garden and a window to the side. Leading off the lounge is the kitchen/breakfast room with an original quarry tiled floor and windows to two aspects. It has been fitted with a matching range of wooden base and wall mounted units, with a black laminated worksurface over.
To the first floor a small landing space gives access to the two double bedrooms. Both rooms are similar in size, have carpeted flooring and windows that provide views of the vast greenery surrounding the property.
Outside is where the true potential really lies with this property. Being set on a substantial plot, the grounds offer scope for a significant extension to be added to the property subject to obtaining planning permission. Previous planning had been approved for an extension to be added but has since lapsed. The garden is a vast lawned area wrapping around the property. The grounds are fully enclosed yet offer two access points. The property is not positioned on a long a roadside and is cleverly disguised behind an adjoining neighbouring property. There is ample on street parking on a nearby quiet road and the boundary is accessed either via a footpath or across the neighbouring cafe/bar outside seating area.

Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
