Property Description

***CLOSING DATE - TUESDAY 21ST JULY @ 2.00PM*** Set within an attractive historic building dating back to 1875, in the heart of a sought-after conservation area, this beautifully presented three-bedroom lower floor flat, enjoys all the charm and character of a cottage. Converted into residential accommodation approximately 35 years ago, the property has been thoughtfully upgraded over the years, including the installation of a new roof and boiler around three years ago. Tastefully decorated throughout, the accommodation is both welcoming and well proportioned. An entrance porch leads into a practical cloakroom, where a cleverly designed double cupboard discreetly conceals the laundry appliances. The heart of the home is the inviting open-plan living and dining room, featuring attractive wood flooring, where the current owners have created a warm and relaxing space for everyday living with the addition of a deep red electric stove as a focal point. The charming cottage-style kitchen is fitted with a range of units, while the property offers three generous double bedrooms, two benefiting from built-in wardrobes. The third bedroom is currently arranged as a music room, offering flexibility as a home office, hobby room or guest bedroom. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the accommodation, featuring a shower over the bath. Outside, the enclosed garden provides a delightful private retreat, with a sheltered shady nook, a lawn and gravelled seating areas, all enclosed by fencing for added privacy. A particular advantage is the substantial detached garage, measuring approximately 5.5m x 3.6m, together with on-street parking. Offering character, comfort and practical living in an attractive period setting, this delightful home is ideal for a wide range of purchasers seeking a property with charm, outdoor space and excellent storage in a highly desirable location close to the school and all local amenities.
