A charming, two-bedroom Victorian house with a separate garden studio and courtyard garden, enjoying a peaceful position on an attractive street opposite Christ’s Pieces, offered for sale with no onward chain.

This characterful Victorian mid-terrace residence is situated on the sought-after Orchard Street, which is ideally positioned within proximity of the historic city centre and surrounding green spaces. No. 40 offers well-balanced accommodation and a wealth of period character.

The accommodation is arranged over two floors, complemented by a detached garden studio, well suited to home working or occasional guest use. The ground floor provides a semi open-plan layout, comprising a sitting/dining room with a sash window to the front elevation, centred around an original open fireplace, with fitted cabinetry and shelving to either side. The kitchen is fitted with a range of modern units, offering good storage and incorporating an integrated electric oven and hob, inset sink, and space for freestanding appliances, in addition to useful understairs storage. An inner lobby provides plumbing for a washing machine and gives access to a shower room and the rear garden. Fitted with a three-piece suite, the shower room includes an electric corner shower, wash basin and a WC.

To the first floor, a small landing leads to two bedrooms, both benefiting from built-in storage.

Externally, the property enjoys a private paved courtyard garden, which in turn leads to a well-constructed and insulated studio building, measuring approximately 3.2m x 3.2m, with power and lighting connected.
