'The Laurels' is a charming three bedroom character property, located on the High Street of the popular village of Kingston Blount. Dating back to 1856, in brief the property consists of: entrance hall, living room, dining room, kitchen/dining room, utility room, downstairs W/C, three well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom. There is also a cellar to the lower level. Outside provides a well-maintained front garden, driveway parking for multiple vehicles, and a secluded rear garden benefitting from areas of both patio and lawn.

An internal viewing comes highly recommended!

Ground Floor:
Upon entering the front door, you are immediately welcomed into the entrance hall, with doors leading to all reception rooms, and stairs climbing to the first floor. To the right, there is the living room, and to the left the formal dining room with feature fireplace. Across the rear, there is then the kitchen/dining room, boasting ample storage space at eye and waist level, doors out onto the rear garden, as well as characterful quarry tiled floors. Lastly there is the utility room, which also houses the downstairs W/C.

First Floor:
From the landing, there are doors leading to all three bedrooms, as well as the family bathroom and airing cupboard. All three bedrooms are well-proportioned, and the family bathroom is of a fantastic size.

Cellar:
The property boasts a unique cellar, ideal for storage purposes or could be converted (subject to permissions) into a cinema room or hobby room.

Outside:
To the front, there is a well-maintained and walled front garden, and driveway parking for multiple vehicles. There is then the private rear garden, which is also of a very good size, and benefits from a vast degree of privacy, sunlight and areas of both patio and lawn.

Agents Notes:
The Laurels has been sympathetically maintained in recent years by the current owner, and in our opinion would make fantastic proposition for those looking to live in a rural location. Boasting gas central heating and characterful sash-windows to the front, as well as a private rear garden and ample off-street parking, an internal viewing comes highly recommended to truly appreciate this stunning property. The property has also been extended on the ground floor, with potential to to extend above it onto the first floor (lapsed planning permission application P05/E0938).
