Description
A charming city home with ample natural light and elusive off road parking. The ground floor comprises the kitchen and dining area to the rear of the property, along with the garage. There is also a downstairs cloakroom and plenty of understairs storage. Stairs rise to the generous first floor living space which is L-shaped, allowing the room to be used in a variety of ways. Currently, there is a comfortable living area to the front of the property with bi-fold doors that can divide the space to create a study if required. To the rear is a further sitting area, though this could alternately be used as a further dining room. Double aspect windows allow for plenty of light throughout, and there is a peaceful rear balcony with space for a table and chairs. On the second floor are two double bedrooms with built-in storage, both served by a spacious bathroom. A velux window gives extra light to this upper floor, enabling the landing to be used as a secondary study space.
The Location:
Staple Gardens enjoys a convenient position only moments from the mainline rail station. The thriving City Centre with its eclectic range of shops, bars and restaurants is also only minutes away.
