The living accommodation offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, with a log burner in the dining room creating a cosy focal point. Currently used as a playroom, the dining room offers versatile space that can adapt to the needs of its new owners. Period-style radiators and shutters throughout add further charm and individuality. Two of the bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes, providing practical and convenient storage. Outside, the beautiful magnolia tree and period-style gate enhance the home’s kerb appeal. The south-facing garden offers a lovely outlook from the kitchen and includes a playhouse, with an extra-large Keter storage unit positioned behind it, providing useful additional storage.

The location is another real highlight, with a popular park directly opposite and an outstanding-rated primary school at the end of the road. Excellent transport links also make commuting and travelling around the area convenient, making this an especially appealing home for families and professionals alike. A wonderful combination of period character, thoughtful improvements, versatile living space and an enviable location, this is a home with plenty to offer.
