This charming Victorian terraced house is within easy reach of the town centre and is built of traditional red brick construction beneath a slate roof, retaining characteristics one would associate with a home of its era including generous ceiling height and sash windows. Off-road parking and a large attractive garden further enhance the desirability of the property.

The property provides light and airy accommodation which in brief comprises: Hallway, a spacious front aspect sitting room with a lovely bay window, dining room, kitchen, utility and cloakroom. There is a generous, versatile cellar which has good head height and could be used as a cinema room, home office or fourth bedroom subject to building and fire regulations.

On the first floor there are three good sized bedrooms. The generous bathroom is well presented and benefits from a white suite comprising a bath, low level wc and pedestal wash hand basin as well as a chrome heated towel rail. There is also potential to move up another level into the roof space if desired (subject to planning and building regs).

Outside

To the rear of the property the mature garden which is laid mainly to lawn is certainly another feature of this charming house. Adjacent to the rear and side of the house there is smart brick block paving and several areas to set up a table and chairs in order to enjoy some outdoor dining during the warmer months.
The side pathway leads to a side gate and accesses the brick block driveway which can accommodate parking for two cars.
