For the first time in 50 years, this lovely four/five bedroom detached family home has come to the market, retaining many original features with two spacious receptions rooms, ground floor shower and first floor bathroom and separate cloakroom. The property which was built circa 1947 is positioned within a plot of approx. 0.105 of an acre (427m2), with a north-west facing rear garden. A double garage with a pitched roof is approached from a side access with further off-street parking to the front of the house. The kitchen offers a range of wall and base units, with integrated appliances and space for others, with a wide arch leading into the dining room.

Both reception rooms enjoy the original tiled fireplaces with bases and mantles with wood flooring to both areas. The original integral garage was converted into bedroom five and benefits from an adjoining tiled shower.

The first floor is home to four bedrooms, two of which are large doubles, one with a wealth of fitted wardrobes, with the fourth facing the front with access to the glazed front terrace, offering extra storage areas.

The spacious landing lends itself to form access to the large loft and has built-in cupboards housing the hot water cylinder while the gas-fired boiler is located in the dining room.

The garden, being generous in size, would accommodate the concept of a large self-contained outside annex, in replacement of the garage, subject to the usual planning consents.

While many houses on this estate have been redeveloped to create substantial family homes, this property has retained the original design and minimal changes have happened.
