Description
As you enter the property through the welcoming hallway, you are immediately drawn into the living room, beautifully enhanced by a large bay window that allows an abundance of natural light to pour in throughout the day. This room provides a comfortable and inviting space, ideal for both relaxation and entertaining. Moving through the property, you will find a charming dining room that perfectly balances traditional character with modern living. The exposed brick feature wall adds warmth and texture to the space, while the wood-burning fireplace creates a cosy focal point. The kitchen is separated into two sections, providing a practical and functional layout. There is ample cupboard and worktop space for storage and meal preparation, as well as designated areas for essential white goods. A door at the rear of the kitchen opens out to the garden, making it convenient for outdoor dining.
Ascending to the first floor, the landing leads to three well proportioned bedrooms, each offering a comfortable and peaceful retreat. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, featuring a cast iron fireplace and a large bay window that mirrors the charm of the living room below, allowing natural light to enhance the sense of space. The second bedroom also enjoys a feature fireplace, adding a touch of period character, while the third bedroom provides a versatile space that could serve as a guest room, child’s bedroom, or home office. Completing the upper level is a well appointed three piece family bathroom, fitted with a bath that includes an overhead shower, a wash basin, and a WC. The room is tastefully finished and provides a practical and relaxing space for daily routines.
