Description

This sought-after location offers a peaceful, community feel while being just moments from excellent local amenities, including shops and well-regarded schools.

About this home
Nestled in a prime position at the top of a peaceful cul-de-sac, this stunning stone-built, period semi-detached home is a once-in-a-generation opportunity. Built in 1894 and lovingly cared for by only three owners since new, it exudes character, charm, and a true sense of history.
Set within 0.3 acres of exquisite wraparound gardens, this home enjoys complete privacy, surrounded by mature plants and specimen trees. The tree-lined, horseshoe-shaped street adds to its picturesque appeal, while off-street parking for several vehicles makes it an exceptionally rare find in this sought-after location.
Step inside, and you’ll immediately appreciate the beautiful period details that have been sympathetically restored. Original sash windows have been retained and some upgraded to double glazing, while Victorian-style radiators, deep skirtings, elegant cornicing, and stripped wooden floors enhance the home’s timeless charm.
The spacious open-plan lounge and dining area is flooded with natural light, thanks to windows on three elevations, offering delightful views over the gardens and towards Clougha in the distance. The kitchen is fitted with light beech units, blending functionality with classic appeal.
Upstairs, three generous bedrooms await. The master bedroom spans the front of the home and is already part plumbed for an en-suite shower & w.h.b. The second bedroom enjoys a dual aspect, while the third overlooks the orchard. A well-appointed three-piece bathroom in white completes this floor.
The converted attic room presents exciting potential as a fourth bedroom, already featuring dormer windows and full flooring. Additionally, the home benefits from a large basement, offering excellent storage or the potential for further development.
This truly is a remarkable home in a fantastic location. A rare blend of history, space, and privacy, waiting for its next custodian.
