Its beauty is immediately apparent as you approach, with a red brick exterior and double bay windows delivering plenty of kerb appeal.
A low wall with railings above and planting behind sets it back from the road, with a traditionally tiled pathway leading up to the covered entrance door.
The entrance hallway has warm wooden effect flooring and under stair cupboards, to keep the space clutter free.
First on the left is the fantastic living/dining room. It is a wonderfully bright and welcoming space where Victorian proportions and traditional features have been blended with stylish décor and modern finishes. A mid shuttered bay to the front delivers period elegance in the living space while the dining area behind benefits from the creative design of a picture window to the rear and bi fold doors to the side. The doors can lie open to extend the living space into the garden in the warmer months.
At the rear is the bespoke kitchen/breakfast room with Harvey Jones painted wooden cabinetry contrasting with gleaming granite work tops and tiled flooring. It is beautifully finished and fully equipped, as you would expect from a house of this quality, with an integrated fridge/freezer and Bosch dishwasher. There is space for a range oven with a coloured glass splashback and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. A breakfast bar is the perfect spot for your morning coffee. A larder cupboard, pan drawers and open shelving provide lots of storage space and a side aspect door gives access into the garden.
To the rear is the cloakroom.
Climbing the carpeted stairs to the first floor there are three immaculate bedrooms, all doubles. The principal bedroom at the front extends the width of the house and its windows, one a deep bay, flood the room with natural light.
A recently updated modern bathroom has a shower over the bath. Side aspect windows reflect light off its fittings and contemporary tiles for a soothing bathing experience.
Up a further flight of stairs to the second floor there are two further bedrooms, one currently set up as a home office, a shower room, and eaves storage space.
Outside the sunny south west garden is fully enclosed offering a safe sanctuary for children and pets whilst a paved terrace at the side of the dining room and kitchen is perfect for summer dining. A neat lawned area is edged by wooden sleeper enclosed flower beds, there is a shed for storage and side street access too.
This fabulous period home is a short walk from first class grammar schools and mainline stations making it perfect for families with professional needs. A must see!
