To the front of the first floor, a large double bedroom is complete with an original cast-iron feature fireplace with a white wood surround to the centre, making a stunning focal point, with solid wood flooring and double-glazed sash windows to the front elevation. A second double bedroom is complete with newly fitted plush wool carpets, another cast iron feature fireplace to the centre alongside double glazed windows to the side aspect overlooking the rear garden with access to the family bathroom.

Vendor comments:

" This is a beautiful house with a homely feel in the Clarendon Park area, a stones throw away from Queen's Road with great local amenities but also walking distance to the train station/city centre. We love the original features, including the fireplaces (with blocked chimneys) in the top two rooms but have modernised the property throughout to include a new kitchen. The larger than average garden and outdoor space is rare to find in the area. We have lovely neighbours and we feel this is the perfect house for a young couple or first time buyer. "
