IF YOU LIVED HERE...

On the first floor of this beautifully maintained 716 sq ft home, you'll find four doors at the top of the stairs leading to inviting and thoughtfully designed spaces.

Step into the reception room, a generous, light-filled retreat with a classic bay window and a beautifully restored cast-iron fireplace serving as a striking focal point. Alcoves on either side feature bespoke cabinetry and shelving, offering both storage and display space. Original details, including coving and intricate ceiling roses, add period charm, while warm honey-toned wooden floorboards run seamlessly throughout, creating a stylish and welcoming atmosphere.

The kitchen is sleek and sophisticated, with charcoal grey gloss-fronted cabinets providing ample storage. A crisp white countertop and matching tiled splashback create a fresh contrast, while integrated appliances, including a gas hob, maintain a streamlined aesthetic. A large window overlooking the garden fills the space with natural light, and a handy breakfast bar offers the perfect spot for a morning coffee or quick meal.

The second reception room, currently used as a dining area, is another bright and airy space. With the original fireplace removed, the alcove now features a quirky intriguing nook, whilst shelving in the adjacent alcove, adds character and practicality.

The bathroom is elegantly clad in large-scale sandstone tiles, perfectly complementing the modern white suite. A sleek countertop basin sits atop a cabinet, ensuring surfaces remain uncluttered, whilst a full-size bath with an overhead rain shower enhances the spa-like atmosphere.

The principal bedroom is elegantly decorated in soft, neutral hues, with a restored fireplace adding warmth and character. Two built-in wardrobes provide ample storage, while a large window floods the space with daylight. The second bedroom is a versatile, light-filled space—perfect as a nursery, home office, or guest room.

Outside, the private garden is a welcoming open space with a section of lawn bordered by established shrubs and flower beds. A paved area provides the perfect setting for outdoor furniture, making it ideal for entertaining or unwinding in the fresh air.
