The Property
There is well-presented accommodation arranged over two floors, extended to the ground floor, and featuring many original features typical of the era. The ground floor includes a storm porch, entrance hall, two formal reception rooms and a modern fitted kitchen. Upstairs there are three comfortable bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate W.C. A loft space over provides useful space for storage.
While the house has been well cared for over the years and currently presents comfortable well-presented accommodation there is also a huge amount of scope to extend and improve, subject to the usual consents. This includes substantial ground and first floor extensions to the side and rear, conversion and enlargement of the roof space and the addition of standalone detached structures in the garden for use in several ways, as a home office, games room or gym, for example.
Outside
Outside, there is a separate single garage to one side, with a lean-to shed at the rear, while additional sheds can be found further down the garden. Extending to what must be approaching 200 feet, the garden at the rear of the house is a real feature, providing a lovely leafy back drop to the house, it is laid mainly to lawn, with a large, paved terrace immediately to the rear of the house, well stocked planted boundaries and a number of mature fruit trees. To the front of the house is a well-proportioned garden and drive to one side provides parking for several cars and access to the garage.
