A stylishly updated and most comfortable family home with the rare benefits of a sunny south south-westerly part walled garden and adjacent garage with pedestrian access. Impressive 'C' EPC rating!

THE PROPERTY:

The distinctive front door of this property hints that it is no ordinary three bed semi, but only internal viewing of this exceptional home will be enough to appreciate the enormous care and valuable updating that the present owners have lavished on their home.

The comfortable living room to the front of the house benefits from bespoke plantation shutters that are also found elsewhere in the property. A beautifully refitted kitchen dining room spans the width of the house to the rear and has French windows that open out onto a wide paved terrace overlooking the attractive part walled garden. The terrace also provides access via a pedestrian door into the garage that has light and power as well as a pitched roof providing further potential storage.

Upstairs there are three well-proportioned bedrooms with the largest of these benefiting from an ensuite shower room. The family bathroom has the feel of a ‘boutique hotel’ with Carrera marble effect surrounds and timeless white sanitary ware complemented with chrome fittings.

Buyers will appreciate the impressive ‘C’ rating on the EPC that reflects the high standard of insulation and efficient gas fired central heating. These factors combine to create a home that is easy to keep warm and run without unduly expensive utility bills. It also futureproofs this investment for potential landlords as it will comply with the anticipated improved energy standards expected in the private rental sector.
