We have pleasure in offering to the market this deceptive and tastefully presented period terraced cottage which has been thoughtfully modernised and renovated throughout, combining both traditional and modern elements, providing two main reception areas and two double bedrooms, having both ground floor shower room and first floor ensuite bathroom and modern fitted kitchen. In addition there has been a part conversion of the attic space which currently provides excellent storage but, subject to necessary consents, could offer scope to create an another bedroom or reception area in the eaves.
In addition the property has been neutrally decorated throughout, benefitting from UPVC double glazing and gas central heating, and presents as a delightful home with elements of character including attractive fireplaces to the main sitting room and separate dining room. The kitchen has been upgraded with a modern but traditional style range of units finished in heritage colours, having integrated appliances and opens out into the dining area which, combined, creates an excellent everyday living/entertaining space.
As well as the internal accommodation the property occupies a deceptive plot with hard standing to the front providing off road parking and additional access off the main road to the rear which leads to a further parking area at the foot of the plot. This in turn leads to a a substantial garage/workshop space which provides around a 600 sq.ft. footprint giving an excellent level of garaging, ideal for the car enthusiast.
In addition there is a well proportioned garden, mainly laid to lawn which, excluding the garage area, extends to approximately 140' in length.
Overall viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
