The Interior

Step inside this charming two-bedroom, thoughtfully updated and full of character. Purchased in 2022, the current owner has invested in key upgrades, including a brand-new Vaillant boiler and triple-glazed windows to the front-facing bedrooms—offering both warmth and peace.

As you arrive, you're greeted by a welcoming glass-panelled porch with a conservatory-style roof—ideal for shoes and coats, with practical vinyl flooring underfoot. The main hallway flows seamlessly into the kitchen with wooden-style flooring throughout, offering a cohesive and homely feel. The front living room is cosy yet spacious, complete with grey carpeting, a decorative (non-working) fireplace, and a large window that fills the room with natural light.

Upstairs, the main bedroom sits to the front of the home and includes a built-in wardrobe and a wide triple-glazed window. The second bedroom overlooks the garden and comfortably fits a double bed, making it perfect for guests or family. At the end of the hallway, the bathroom offers a clean and functional space—featuring a shower over the bath, pedestal sink, chrome heated towel rail, and handy built-in storage.

Back downstairs, the open-plan kitchen/dining area is a real highlight—boasting sleek white units with chrome handles, a black textured worktop, under-cabinet lighting, and a built-in IKEA oven with a gas hob and extractor. There’s also space for a dishwasher. Flowing into the bright conservatory, this area becomes the heart of the home, offering year-round usability thanks to a full heating system and tiled floors.

Off the conservatory, a cleverly designed utility and WC provides extra functionality, with stacking space for a washer/dryer, additional shelving, and a frosted window for privacy.

The Outside

To the front, the property features a two-car driveway finished in stone, with a gated side entrance halfway along the house for additional security and ease of access.

The rear garden is a real sanctuary—generously sized, mostly laid to lawn with a concrete and stone path running along the left side. There’s excellent privacy thanks to established greenery, fencing, and a well-placed tree close to the home. At the back of the garden, you’ll find a fantastic summer house complete with electricity and Wi-Fi, perfect for a garden office, creative studio, or relaxing escape. There’s also a practical storage shed tucked beside it.
