Entrance Hall

The home welcomes you via a practical entrance vestibule featuring low-maintenance, wood-effect laminate flooring that flows seamlessly into the primary living room. The neutral walls are offset by white gloss skirtings, and a multi-paned timber glazed door invites natural light to pass between the spaces while keeping the entrance drafts contained.

Living Room: 14'4" x 12'6" (4.37m x 3.81m)

Centred around an expansive white uPVC double-glazed window overlooking the front aspect, this welcoming reception room feels bright and airy. The walls are finished in a soft, contemporary light-grey textured wallpaper, complemented by standard plaster coving and a large wall-mounted steel radiator. A standout feature is the traditional, freestanding light oak-effect fireplace surround with a detailed mantel and hearth, acting as a natural focal point for the space. Multimedia connectivity includes a wall-mounted television setup with neatly concealed tracking for wiring, alongside well-positioned low-level double sockets.

Kitchen: 15'7" x 7'8" (4.75m x 2.34m)

This practical, full-width space features reflective high-gloss black ceramic floor tiles and a duck-egg blue color palette. The culinary area boasts a U-shaped layout of contemporary wood-grained cabinets with brushed-chrome handles, slate-effect worktops, and a tiled splashback. Integrated appliances include a four-ring gas hob, electric fan oven, and stainless steel extractor hood, alongside a deep stainless steel sink with a premium swan-neck mixer tap under a wide window.

Dining Area: Flowing seamlessly from the workspace, the dedicated dining zone easily accommodates a family table and chairs. It comes complete with a wall-mounted radiator, a built-in low-level storage cupboard, and a half-glazed uPVC door that opens to the rear lobby while flooding the room with natural light.

Utility Room: 9'6" x 4'10" (2.9m x 1.47m)

Accessible from the kitchen, a rear lobby with a secure timber door leads outside. Connected directly to this space is an invaluable, brick-built external store room which provides excellent weather-proof housing for additional white goods, garden machinery, or bicycles.

Landing

A carpeted staircase with a white-painted timber balustrade rises to the first-floor landing. This central artery is fitted with a durable, neutral beige twist carpet that continues seamlessly into both bedrooms, creating a cohesive and cosy feel across this level.

Bedroom: 12'6" x 10'7" (3.81m x 3.23m)

A spacious double bedroom decorated in crisp, neutral tones with standard white woodwork. A large uPVC double-glazed window looks out over the front street scene, with a wall-mounted panel radiator situated beneath to ensure excellent temperature control.

Bedroom: 11'7" x 9'5" (3.53m x 2.87m)

Another well-proportioned double bedroom featuring a broad uPVC double-glazed window providing pleasant views of the private rear garden. The room features a wall-mounted radiator, clean painted plasterwork, and a continuation of the plush beige carpeting.

Bathroom: 5'9" x 5'6" (1.75m x 1.68m)

Well-equipped with a classic white three-piece suite, comprising a panelled bath with a wall-mounted chrome shower attachment, a pedestal wash hand basin with traditional individual chrome taps, and a low-level WC. Wet zones are protected by easy-clean ceramic wall tiling, and an obscured uPVC window offers natural ventilation and complete privacy.

Loft: 17'7" x 15'4" (5.36m x 4.67m)

Occupying the entirety of the second floor, this impressive loft conversion serves as a bright, multi-functional playroom or a premium home office. The space is flooded with daytime sunlight courtesy of a large, timber-framed Velux skylight window complete with an integrated roller blind. Sloping eaves give the room architectural character while maintaining generous standing head height along the central ridge line. Exceptional use of space is made with four individual, white-painted access doors built directly into the walls, opening into deep, insulated front and rear eaves storage. The floor is fully carpeted in light beige, the stairwell entry is safely bordered by a stained wood spindled balustrade, and multiple low-level double sockets provide plenty of power options.

Garden

The rear of the property features an expansive, fully enclosed garden framed by secure timber panel fencing, ensuring an excellent degree of privacy. Stepping out from the house, a raised timber decking area offers the perfect spot for an outdoor dining set, barbecue, and summer entertaining. The remainder of the garden is primarily laid to a level lawn, with a paved patio area situated towards the far boundary, making it an ideal, low-maintenance space for children, pets, and gardeners alike.
