We often find that down-sizers and young buyers are looking for the same thing; strong, accessible location, manageable garden, well proportioned accommodation, and if it's detached, well that's just the cherry on top! We throw around the phrase "rare" quite a lot, but what we are offering here, well it really is rare find! Located on a quiet no through road, right opposite the park, this handsome detached house is bursting with charm.

Step into the porch, through the front door and take a left, you find yourself in the living room; the current owners have fantastic taste in interiors and finishings, so this recently refurbished room exudes quality, from the freshly skimmed walls to the thick carpets. The main part of the room centres around the fireplace, and at the far end, a small extension has created a wonderfully light space, a perfect for a big comfy arm chair and a good book. The kitchen is a great size, with hardwood base and wall units wrapping around 3 of the 4 walls, and a stable door leading out to the rear garden. Downstairs also has a cloakroom.
Upstairs, the property has two bedrooms, the largest of which is dual aspect, with views of the park to the front, and of the garden to the rear. Bedroom number two has built in storage, and overlooks the garden, benefitting from new carpets same as the rest of the first floor. The shower room is fairly neutral, and the landing upstairs is lovely and wide, with plenty of light being allowed in from a window to the front.
The garage is located on the side of the property, and whilst it's only the width of a single garage, it has the depth, and therefore the square footage, of a double. To the front, the driveway has parking for two cars, one at each end, with a pretty cottage garden in-between; though there is scope to increase your parking significantly should you wish. To the rear, the current owners have invested in laying a significant amount of lawn, and some fresh planting to the left hand side. High hedges ensure a sense of privacy and security within the space, and mature beds a shrubs all add to a cottage-garden feel.
It's not every day you come across a property such as this, it's an attractive proposition for all demographics, but you cant help but feel that within the context of a downsizers search, it's really quite special.
