IF YOU LIVED HERE…

You'll have a shade under 1300 square feet of artfully appointed, welcoming living space behind that handsome brick frontage. Highlights are numerous, with dramatic splashes of colour and lovingly restored original features everywhere. Let's start in your 240 square foot through lounge. Dual aspect and full of light, burnt orange walls contrast with a striking black vintage hearth and mantel, as blonde engineered hardwood flows underfoot.

Your kitchen/diner to the rear is just as striking and every bit as generous. Artisanal timber cabinetry with chunky white worktops flanks you as you enter, with a large Dublin sink sitting opposite a double width chef's oven. The dining area's finished in soft pink, basking in natural light from the skylight and French doors to the rear. Throw these back to bring the outside in and step into your private garden for a patio and lawn all encircled by timber fencing. Back inside, a chic and sleek spare shower room sits off the diner.

Head upstairs for your principal bedroom - a 170 square foot double with striking statement wall opposite a wealth of floor to ceiling storage and vintage timber floorboards running underfoot. The storey's completed by two more similarly stylish sleepers and the family bathroom - blending a pale pink paintjob with smoky grey tilling. Into your loft conversion now, and your third bathroom, a gloriously bright affair in white with walk in rainfall shower. Bedroom four is skylit and pristine in white, while your fifth and final bedroom features a sage green finish and rooftop views. Gorgeous.
