Property description
Nestled in leafy surroundings is this traditional 1920’s double fronted semi-detached house; a handsome property situated in a good size plot, this impressive home has been elegantly finished to provide a comfortable lifestyle for today’s modern family. Brief highlights include entrance hallway, lounge, cloaks/wc, lounge, dining room, breakfast kitchen, utility room, four bedrooms, en-suite facilities and a family bathroom. Outside there is ample parking and gardens to the front and rear. Other benefits include gas central heating and double glazing.
A welcoming and attractive entrance hall leads to the ground floor receptions rooms, which include an extremely spacious lounge, a large dining room and a family-sized kitchen with separate utility. The lounge, which benefits from dual aspect views, spans almost the entire width of the property and houses a number of charming features in keeping with the period in which it was built. A stunning feature fireplace is the focal point of the room, whilst high ceilings with their decorative roses and original plaster coving, a large leaded bay window, and feature wall panelling all add to the ambience of this classic room. and, in the summer months you can let the outdoors in by opening up the large patio windows overlooking the rear garden. The dining room, adjacent to the lounge, offers plenty of space for formal dining and is once again opulent in style with its stunning classic fireplace, picture rails and decorative wall panelling. Currently home to a large dining table that easily seats eight, this is a great room for those large family gatherings. The kitchen, to the rear of the property, is a delightful and homely room in which to spend time cooking and eating. A plethora of stunning fully-fitted units are further enhanced by dark solid wood worktops, integrated appliances and an attractive range cooker with overhead mantel, giving it that real country style family home appeal. In addition to a separate utility room the kitchen also offers plenty of dining space for more informal family meals. The rear garden can also be accessed from here.
Back in the entrance hall a traditional return staircase leads to a mezzanine style landing, which in turn leads to three good-sized bedrooms and a large family bathroom. The sumptuous master bedroom once again benefits from an abundance of period features, which continue into the en-suite; here the focal point is a beautiful traditional claw-footed freestanding bath. The remaining two bedrooms are both generously proportioned and handsomely decorated with many of the period features from the aforementioned rooms prevalent. The family bathroom certainly wouldn’t look out of place in a classic stately home, and whilst traditional in style, features a modern walk in shower large enough for two! An additional staircase leads to the second floor, which has been successfully converted to a spacious study/music room and offers far reaching views courtesy of a large rear-facing window.
