This attractive, bay-fronted family home offers improved and well-presented accommodation approaching 1390 sqft and large, mature grounds benefitting from a southerly aspect. Situated along an established tree-lined avenue on the north-side of the city, just 500 yards from Chesterton Community College and within walking distance to Jesus Green and the city centre.

The property is set back from the road behind neat and established gardens providing off-street parking and secure access to the rear. A useful enclosed porch leads to a wide reception hall with a staircase to the first floor and a cloakroom/WC. The sitting room has an opening to the dining room, a broad bay-window overlooking the front aspect and an inset wood burning stove. The dining room has attractive wood-effect flooring and connects to the garden room via glazed sliding doors. The garden room has been improved in recent years from the installation of a solid pitched roof. This is a bright and comfortable room with access to and complete views of the garden. A well-equipped, modern kitchen with extensive storage, countertops with matching upstands and plumbing and space for freestanding appliances completes the ground floor accommodation. Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to a family bathroom, three spacious first-floor bedrooms and a staircase leading to the second-floor bedroom.

Outside, the rear garden has been lovingly designed and well-stocked with a variety of seasonal plants, flowers and shrubs to provide colour and scent all year round. There is a hardstanding side area set behind tall wooden gates, which leads to a detached garage with power and lighting. A paved patio area set around the garden room provides a pleasant outside dining space to one side. An extensive lawn with mature trees and shrubs continues the length of the garden. There is a useful timber shed and a secure bicycle store adjoining the garage.
