About this home

Contemporary living across three floors, with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a balcony and driveway parking.

A little different from your average two-bedroom rental, this stylish mid-terrace home offers a clever three-storey layout, modern interiors and plenty of personality. From the striking feature walls to the first-floor balcony, there's a lot to like about this one.

Step inside and the ground floor welcomes you with an entrance hallway leading to a versatile second bedroom, currently finished in a rich green colour scheme with feature wallpaper and wood-effect flooring. A separate shower room, complete with shower enclosure, wash basin and WC, makes this floor particularly practical.

Head upstairs and you'll find the heart of the home. The first floor is dedicated to an open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, offering a sociable space for everyday living. The contemporary kitchen features gloss-fronted units, work surfaces, an integrated oven and hob, while the living area provides space to relax and dine. Sliding glazed doors open onto a balcony, giving you somewhere to enjoy a morning coffee or a little fresh air without leaving home.

The top floor is home to the generously proportioned main bedroom, with a distinctive open landing-style layout and its own en-suite bathroom. The bathroom features a bath with shower over, wash basin and WC, complemented by contemporary tiling and botanical feature wallpaper.

Outside, the property benefits from a driveway to the front providing off-street parking for one vehicle.

A modern home with a layout that makes the most of every floor, ideal for those looking for something with a little more character than the usual rental property.
