This stunning Victorian cottage home built in 1901 simply has to be viewed.
The front of the house has had the entire brick work re-pointed, a new surrounding wall has been built with black iron gate, as well as laid cobblers to the ground. The soffits and guttering have been replaced and a new timber front door to enhance the character retaining tradition has been hung.
The back garden fence and gate has recently been replaced with new 6ft panels the ground laid with cobblers the same as the front to create a lovely courtyard garden. The rear soffits and guttering have been replaced also to match the front.
Internally this home has been maintained to an exceptional standard. All internal doors are new, carrying the same style as the front door and fitted wardrobes. The living/dining area is laid with dark walnut wood laminate floor. The modern family bathroom is laid with cream ceramic tiles. The kitchen is laid with grey laminate lock flooring whilst the stairs and bedrooms are carpeted.
The front and rear doors are timber keeping in character with the age of the property.
A contemporary feel has been created to the house inside and as much character as possible has been retained externally; recognising she is 114 years old.
The current owners have lived there happily and have bought their son up in this wonderful home. In their opinion 'the house has a warm and calming feel, she has made us comfortable and feel safe we shall miss her a great deal. The road is quiet and friendly there's almost a village feel to the road, we all look out for each other without living in each other's pockets. Mead Road is a neighbourhood watch'.
The kitchen is extended to the entire width of the house creating a big social space with a breakfast bar (allowing 2 options of dining). The French doors open out into the court yard garden creating a fluid continued feel of indoors-out.
Due to the flat roof of the kitchen extension it allows the possibility of moving the bathroom upstairs, subject to planning permission, which would enable one to open the kitchen up further by creating a huge kitchen/diner, the walls dividing the living/dining could be knocked down creating one big lounge.
Further potential includes converting the loft to add another bedroom, as well as the possibility of moving the bathroom upstairs (subject to planning permission).
