This terraced property offers an excellent opportunity for first-time buyers, families, or investors. Perfectly positioned within easy reach of local schools and the town centre, the home benefits from a highly convenient location alongside a functional layout arranged across three levels, an open-plan dining kitchen, and a low-maintenance rear courtyard garden.

Ground Floor

Living Room: The front door opens directly into the main living room, which features a stone-built fireplace with side shelving alcoves. A large front window provides natural light. While currently used flexibly by the current owners, it is a well-proportioned living space with ceiling coving and plenty of room for standard lounge furniture. A door connects through to the stairs and dining area.

Dining Room: A separate reception area featuring wood-effect flooring and a feature wall. The room provides space for a family dining table and chairs, and benefits from an under-stair’s storage cupboard. An open archway connects this room directly to the kitchen.

Kitchen: Fitted with a range of wall and base units with contrasting work surfaces over. It includes an integrated extractor hood, space for a freestanding cooker, and plumbing for a dishwasher. The space is finished with tiled flooring, inset spotlighting, a side window, and a door leading out to the rear garden.

First Floor

Landing: Provides access to both first-floor bedrooms, the family bathroom, and the stairs ascending to the upper floor.

Bedroom 1: A double bedroom looking out over the front aspect, featuring decorative ceiling coving and space for a double bed and wardrobes.

Bedroom 2: A second bedroom situated towards the rear of the property, finished with neutral decor and a window overlooking the rear courtyard.

Bathroom: A fully tiled family bathroom fitted with a three-piece suite, comprising a large walk-in shower enclosure, a low-flush WC, and a floating vanity sink unit with storage drawers. Finished with a heated towel rail and tiled flooring.

Second Floor

Loft Room: Accessed via a fixed staircase from the first-floor landing, this attic space features dual Velux windows. The space is well-suited for use as a home office, hobby room, or additional storage.

Exterior

Rear Courtyard: To the rear is an enclosed, block-paved courtyard garden. Designed for low maintenance, it offers space for outdoor seating and includes a secure timber gate providing rear access.
