An entrance hallway with encaustic tiling leads to the principal reception rooms including the elegant bay fronted family with original cornice, cast iron fireplace and plantation shutters to the bay window. The second reception room continues with engineered Oak flooring and can be accessed via internal French doors or also from the hallway.
What would have been traditionally the dining room, has now taken on a new use as a sociable family sitting room with feature log burning stove with Oak mantel and shelved alcoves. The ground floor has been extended to still offer ample space for a dining table, bathed in natural light from a large Velux skylight and glazed patio doors offering an attractive view onto the generous garden. This superb space has also been designed to flow seamlessly into a contemporary kitchen with matte finish doors, quartz work surfaces and integrated appliances. A further matching utility room offers a second sink and provisions for both a washing machine and tumble dryer, with WC beyond completing the extensive ground floor accommodation.
Stairs from the hallway lead to the first floor and accommodation including two well-proportioned double bedrooms, and a large family bathroom with bath, shower over, toilet and wash basin. Stairs continue into a third bedroom with restricted head height but good floor space offering space as either a double or twin room.
Externally to the front elevation the property sits behind a walled forecourt. To the rear is a large and private walled garden with lawn and seating area, a rare find behind a property of this style.
In summary, a superbly presented and extended Victorian property in a sought after location with larger than average rear garden.
