Dating back to the 1920's, this bright and airy semi-detached family home offers spacious accommodation that combines original features with modern elements. Downstairs, it features a large hallway (with useful under stairs cupboard), off which there is a bay-fronted living room with a handsome feature fireplace, inset wood-burning stove and original coloured lead lights set into the bay window. There is also a separate family room fitted with an attractive original fireplace, and a doorway into the immensely bright garden room, that features a glass vaulted ceiling. A large kitchen with an array of units, a spacious dining room looking onto the garden and a downstairs WC complete the downstairs arrangement.

Upstairs there is a bright and spacious landing, four bedrooms and a family bathroom. Three of the bedrooms are doubles, the main bedroom having a partially double-glazed bay window with original coloured lead lights, mirroring the living room downstairs. Two bedrooms offer views onto the south-west facing garden. Several of the windows, primarily to the rear of the property, are double-glazed.

Most rooms boast an arrangement of original features, notably conserved glass windows, original fireplaces, high ceilings, picture rails and original floor boards. A Vaillant combi boiler (newly serviced) provides gas heating, while the wood-burning stove in the living room offers a cosy family space.

The accommodation includes a self-contained annex offering the opportunity to yield rental income or an additional space to accommodate visiting family and guests. Planning permission (now lapsed) had been granted to connect the annex with the dining room, thereby creating the potential for a large, multi-functional space.

Outside, there is a wonderful established garden. This includes an array of fruit trees and fruit bushes, a wide variety of roses and flowering shrubs, together with a lawned area. Some mature trees offer privacy while two natural ponds provide small havens for wildlife. A small front garden includes a wonderful pear tree and to the front of the property there is free street parking. The gated and partially covered passageway to the side of the property affords ample space for storing bicycles, garden equipment and provides an additional growing area for plants in pots.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    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
