This is a stunning property boasting a wealth of period detail typical of the age, including wonderful Minton tiled flooring, picture rails and beautiful ornate fireplaces.
The current owner has spared no expense in further improving what was already a superb period home, tastefully re-decorating much of the interior along with refitting the kitchen to a stylish design which blends sympathetically with the age and character. Most of the windows have also been replaced in recent months with high-quality double-glazed sash units, whilst a new composite front door has been added plus a new multi-fuel stove with slate hearth has been installed within the snug adjoining the kitchen.
Outside, the elegant turnkey interior is matched by a superb rear garden, which is generous in size and planted with a plethora of interesting plants and perennials.
The property is approached from the road via a gated and walled frontage, which leads to a newly installed composite front door. Once inside one is greeted by a quintessential Edwardian reception hallway resplendent with delightful Minton tiled flooring and having an elegant staircase rising to the first floor, attractive wood panelling, a ceiling rose and a column radiator. Doors radiate from here to the ground floor living accommodation and cellarage.
Dining room
To the front of the property is a wonderful bay-fronted dining room, which floods with light from the two sash windows and has the most elegant feature fireplace as a centrepiece housing a living-flame gas fire.
This excellent reception room also has exposed floorboards, a column radiator, a picture rail, coving and a ceiling rose.
Sitting room
There is a cosy sitting room comprising an open fireplace with an attractive surround, with the accompanying chimney breast featuring newly installed shelving to either side incorporating feature lighting. This room also has a picture rail, coving and a sash window to the rear aspect.
Breakfast room
To the end of the entrance hallway is the breakfast room which is semi-open plan to the kitchen and provides a lovely snug area for dining, with a newly installed multi-fuel stove, heated tiled floor and a sash bay window to the side aspect.
Cellarage
There is a sizeable 21-foot cellar accessed from the hallway which provides great additional storage.
Kitchen
The kitchen is a real feature of the ground floor accommodation, providing an excellent space for families and socialising. The kitchen has been newly refitted to an excellent standard and style, and features royal blue wall and base units, marble effect worktops with an inset double Belfast sink and metro tiling to the splashbacks.
There is a built-in double oven with an induction hob and extractor above, an integrated fridge freezer and a dishwasher. The kitchen also has a wonderful beamed and vaulted ceiling, heated tiled flooring and newly installed French doors with built-in blinds flowing nicely onto the garden.
First floor
There are three bedrooms situated on the first floor, serviced by an impressive house bathroom. Bedrooms two and three are both spacious double rooms featuring attractive cast iron fireplaces, picture rails and newly installed sash windows.
There is a fourth bedroom, which is a single room currently being used as an office.
Bathroom
The spacious main bathroom definitely has the wow factor having been thoughtfully styled using classic themed fitments. The bathroom includes a free-standing roll-top bathtub and a walk-in shower cubicle with classy white metro tiling.
There is also a washbasin set upon a delightful Victorian-style washstand, a Victorian-style radiator/towel rail combo, a low-level WC with overhead cistern, wall lights and a newly installed opaque sash window.
Second floor
Situated on the second floor is an impressive master suite comprising a spacious double bedroom with adjoining ensuite facilities.
Master bedroom
The master bedroom has two sash windows which provide excellent far-reaching views across the rooftops to distant countryside.
The accompanying ensuite is beautifully light and airy and once again has a vintage feel, with metro tiled walls and shower cubicle, a traditional style WC, mosaic type flooring, a Victorian style radiator/towel rail combo, down lighters, sash and Velux windows plus a cupboard housing the Worcester combination boiler.
Garden
A tremendous feature of this property is the rear garden, which is extensive in size and not overlooked. This high-quality outside space comprises a shaped patio situated directly outside the kitchen ideal for alfresco dining, gated side access, outside lighting and a sheltered and walled seating area backed by an established climbing wisteria.
There is a long sweeping lawn featuring a sunken wildlife pond and established borders stocked with plants of many varieties including lupins, roses and Japanese Acer trees. At the far end of the garden is a raised patio with a pergola plus two sheds.
