Property description
THE PROPERTY This house in Sherwood Road is an extremely well-presented four bedroom modern town house built some 20 years ago of reconstituted Cotswold stone with above average sized living quarters.
The accommodation consists of entrance hall at the mid level with cloakroom and staircase up to the first floor/landing. On this level there is also the main lounge with two windows to the rear aspect and a gas fire with an Adam style surround. A staircase from here leads down to a very smart kitchen/dining room with a modern range of cream units consisting of base cupboards and drawers under walnut effect work surfaces, together with stainless steel oven, hob and cooker hood. A half-glazed door from here leads into a well-enclosed low maintenance rear garden. Next to this is a very versatile family/TV room that would make the perfect home cinema. On the top floor there are three bedrooms and a bathroom with a modern white suite including a chrome thermostatic shower over the bath.
The house also incorporates an integral garage (which could easily be converted into another room if required subject to the usual planning considerations) and there is parking at the front for two cars. The landscaped garden to the rear is cleverly designed to be mostly on the level with a large patio and small lawn and a shed hidden away down steps to a lower level. The property has gas fired radiator central heating and smart replacement UPVc double glazed windows that retain their leaded lights.
We have no hesitation in recommending an early appointment to view this conveniently situated home within a short walking distance into the town centre.
