Description

Presented to the market is a charming 1950s home featuring three bedrooms. It comes with granted planning permission for a single-storey rear extension, making it an ideal opportunity for first-time buyers or young families.

This charming mid-terrace property boasts a delightful 1950s style and décor, complemented by a gorgeous garden. Traditional features, such as wood panel doors and picture rails, create stunning focal points throughout the home. The original hard flooring on the ground floor has been lacquered and polished by the current owner. Both the front and rear gardens are beautifully maintained, with two outbuildings, and a garage adding extra utility. Drawings are available that show the potential for a single-storey extension at the rear, significantly increasing the property's floor space. Perfect for a young family or as a first-time buying opportunity, the property also benefits from double glazing throughout.

Set well back from the road, a picket fence surrounds the front garden while a decorative iron gates and paved pathway invites you in. On the right is the delightful front garden with a lawned area and several beds that house a variety of established shrubs and plants. An open porch, ideal for muddy boots, covers the front door, which has a stained glass panel within it and to the left. As you enter, you are greeted by the stairs to the first floor with wooden treads, a central carpet and a storage cupboard beneath. The long hallway with its glorious original hard floor leads to the reception rooms and the kitchen at the rear.

At the front of the property is the living room which has a deep bay window that allows plenty of light to flood into the room. At the centre of the room is the original 1950s fireplace with a tiled surround and hearth, a fabulous feature if one wanted to retain it. The dining room overlooks the lovely rear garden and has a central fireplace that has a more Art Deco feel, with a tiled hearth and mantel. There are also double-glazed doors that open out onto the paved terrace.

At the rear of the property is the well-proportioned kitchen with its fabulous original red tiled floor. There is a sink unit with twin taps at the end, wall cupboards on the right, space for a freestanding cooker and a work surface with open-fronted storage below. There is also a great sized pantry that could easily be converted into a downstairs cloakroom, a part glazed door takes you into the garden.

The gorgeous original wood flooring continues along the upstairs galleried landing, and throughout the first floor. There is access to the loft space, three spacious bedrooms, the family bathroom and a separate WC. The main bedroom features an original fireplace space that is currently used for decorative purposes. The second bedroom has fitted shelves and hanging rails while the third bedroom, which is being used as an office, overlooks the front of the property.

The bathroom has an all-the-rage retro blue suite comprising a panelled bath with twin taps and shower attachment above with a tiled wall behind, and a pedestal wash hand basin that has a tiled splashback and mirrored cabinet above. The airing cupboard housing the hot water tank is also in the bathroom that is floor to ceiling in size and offers plenty of storage room.

The rear garden is long and bordered by wood fences panels, mature trees, fruit trees and hedges. A paved terrace is immediately to the rear of the property with a path that leads the full length of the garden, which is mainly laid to lawn.
