The Home... - This utterly charming Victorian terraced cottage offers an immense amount of character that will surely appeal to any lover of period property and is the perfect starter home. Our client has undertaken an extensive renovation programme since purchasing that means the wealth of charm is coupled with plenty of modernity throughout including underfloor heating, a new kitchen and new boiler.

Upon entry you’re welcomed by a charming sitting room with open fireplace and bespoke alcove cabinetry. With the open fire, this is a really cosy room on those chilly winter evenings.

From the sitting room you come through to the fabulous kitchen with sleek & stylish white gloss units, contrasting wood-effect worktops and range of integrated appliances including Neff double oven, gas hob and dishwasher. The layout has been designed to maximise the use of the space meaning there is stacks of storage.

Just off the kitchen is the very useful utility room providing space for washer, dryer and fridge/freezer. A door leads out to the garden.

Heading to the first floor you’ll find two of the three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The main bedroom is a great double, extending across the entire frontage with cast iron period fireplace and wardrobes either side.

The second bedroom is also a double, overlooks the garden and has a fitted wardrobe.

The family bathroom has a neutral white suite and power shower over the “P” bath tub.

The second floor comprises entirely of the third bedroom which would make a perfect office for those who work from home, or guest bedroom. The large velux window looks south and you have the most spectacular sunsets from this window. Handily, there is fitted storage space and this room has been rewired with additional power points added.

The home is heated via gas fired combi boiler (installed around 2021 with 10 year guarentee) and is fully double glazed (brand new in the kitchen).

Step Outside... - The rear garden has been landscaped with pretty beds & borders. Being south-west facing means you have sunshine throughout. The paved terrace is the perfect position for a spot of ‘al-fresco’ dining or a glass of something chilled during the summer. The large garden shed provides a huge amount of storage and has power & lighting. If this wasn’t required, it could be removed to create extra garden space.

To the front you have driveway parking for one car.

Neighbouring homes have added a porch, so this may also be a possibility, stpp.
