2 bedroom terraced house for sale

DESCRIPTION

Set towards the upper part of tree-lined Blenheim Road and being only a short walk from Locke Park, this gorgeous two/three bedroomed, stone fronted, late Victorian property was the subject of a high quality scheme of renovation around seven years ago. The upgrades included the part conversion of the generous loft, with a fixed staircase already in place the purchaser will have the option of completing this room to create an expansive third bedroom. Throughout, many original features are evident, including beautiful coving, original stripped pine doors, the originality beautifully complemented by high quality window shutters to the majority of rooms. With gas central heating and uPVC double glazing, the accommodation on offer extends to Reception Hall, Lounge, Dining/Sitting Room and recently re-appointed Kitchen, whilst to the first floor there are two good sized Bedrooms, an expansive Landing with Study area and spacious Bathroom. A fixed permanent staircase (which we believe to be Building Control compliant) rises to the part-converted Loft Room, which has two Velux skylight windows. Finally, there is a very useful Cellar accessed from the Dining/Sitting Room.
