5 bedroom house for sale

With its appealing bay-fronted façade, charming front garden and tiled path leading to a covered porch with a period-appropriate front door and bespoke leaded light window, the tone is set for what's to follow in this beautiful Victorian home. Inside, a surprisingly spacious entrance hall is complemented by wide limed oak floorboards, which extend into the living–dining room. This generous, bright space has the living area at the front and dining area to the rear, both retaining, ostensibly original, cast-iron fireplaces, the larger of which is in full working order (Coal effect, fully serviced gas fire). Off the dining area, a beautifully crafted bespoke half-glazed back door — a replica of the original — flanked and topped with glazed panels, opens onto the side return, offering useful outdoor space and potential to extend the kitchen, subject to the usual permissions.

The kitchen occupies the rear of the house with contemporary high-gloss units, white worktops and a central island with breakfast overhang. At the near end, a charming breakfast/lounge area provides relaxed everyday seating, with ample room for a dining table if preferred, while wooden bifolding doors at the other end open directly onto a paved terrace and lawned garden beyond.

The first floor houses the spacious family bathroom and three generous double bedrooms, including the principal bedroom which benefits from a generous en-suite bathroom with westerly balcony off it.

There are two further well-proportioned bedrooms on the top floor, one currently arranged as an ample study, which share an additional shower room, making the layout well suited to family life, working from home or accommodating teenagers and/or guests.
