Description

DIRECTIONS ** From the large roundabout in Ulverston, take the exit by the Ford garage into The Ellers. Take the first turning on the right-hand side into Chapel Street (opposite The Stan Laurel pub). At the large crossroad junction, continue straight ahead and along Chapel Street and then take the second turning on your right into Oxford Street. The property is shortly on your right-hand side. 

LOCATION This popular residential street is located only a couple of minutes' walk from the town centre and is also within easy reach of the local bus service which provides a direct route through to Barrow in Furness and also in the direction of Kendal. The town centre, with its historic cobbled Market Street, offers a wide choice of places to eat with cafes, pubs and restaurants. There is also an indoor and outdoor market, banks and building societies, Boots, Co-op and also Tesco Express, etc. There are also several primary and nursery schools in the town along with the ever popular Ulverston Victoria High School with on-site sixth form college. There is also a railway station which is only a 5-10 minute walk away. 

DESCRIPTION This attractive limestone and sandstone fronted property has direct access from the pavement into the open plan living space via the lounge, which offers a naturally light and cosy space. The white painted décor and complementary coloured laminate floor covering extends through into the adjacent dining room and onwards into the kitchen.

The dining area has a large window looking into the yard, access into an under stair cupboard and a further door leading onto the enclosed staircase.

Completing the ground floor accommodation is the kitchen, which offers a stylish and contemporary feel with a galley-style arrangement of base units and drawers, with a white gloss finish to the cabinets and a long rod-style handle, finished with a beautiful stone-effect laminate work surface with matching upstand. There is a one and a half bowl sink unit with a mixer tap including a pull/spray function, a mid-level oven with a grill and a four burner gas hob with a matching stainless steel splashback and cooker hood above. There is also an integrated fridge and freezer unit. There are multiple windows in the room, as well as a part glazed door which leads into the yard, all contributing towards maintaining the bright feel of this property.

The staircase ascends up to the split level landing where there is a loft hatch, and doors leading into each of the two respective bedrooms and bathroom.

The larger of the two bedrooms is situated to the front of the property, offering generous double proportions. The second/guest bedroom is a single room that has a pleasant outlook over the rear yard.

Finally is the bathroom, which has been finished to the same excellent standard as the kitchen. The four piece suite incorporates a rectangular-shaped wash basin which has drawer storage beneath, a monobloc mixer tap and tiled splashback. There is a double-ended freestanding bath with a floor mounted tap and shower attachment, a close-coupled WC and also a fully glazed shower enclosure which has a dual head shower fitting within including a rain shower function. There is also a fitted cupboard which conceals the Vaillant boiler, a window alongside that has a 'tilt and turn' function and an extractor fan above, plus a contemporary styled vertical radiator.

Externally, the property has a generous sized yard area to the rear with gated access, painted walls and decorative slate chippings throughout.
