The Property

Pushing open the front door of this charming Georgian home we step under the attractive fanlight window and are welcomed by the entrance hall where the character of the property is instantly apparent, the original pull chord doorbell remains, and our stairs rise to the first floor. Doors lead to both of the front reception rooms where we find exposed timber floorboards lining the rooms. To our left we step into the formal dining room, two windows fill the space with natural light and a door opens to the kitchen dining room. Stepping into the kitchen we find an impressive space lined with a range of solid wood fronted kitchen cabinets set under timber work surfaces, a ceramic sink sits below a window looking to the side aspect whilst doors open to both the utility/lavatory area and the stunning conservatory. Parquet flooring offers an attractive, yet practical solution and a trap door opens to the full height brick cellar. Ample space is made for a large dining table allowing versatile use of the formal dining room. Stepping into the conservatory our eye is drawn to the clear glazed (uv protective) roof and charming view into the walled courtyard. The conservatory provides a fantastic additional space for entertaining and family living alike and returns open plan into the sitting room providing a seamless link to the living space. In the sitting room we find a large bay window looking to the front aspect whilst an ornate timber fire surround houses the cast iron Georgian fireplace and provides a charming focal point to the space, a doorway brings us full circle back to the entrance hall. Climbing the stairs to the first floor the generous landing enjoys a view of the courtyard and neighbouring grounds beyond. To our left we find our first two double bedrooms both of which benefit from fitted storage and ample space for a double bed. The family bathroom echoes the sympathetic, yet attractive decor found throughout, with a contemporary white suite boasting as separate shower and claw foot bath. Completing the accommodation, we find the generous main bedroom which offers an en-suite shower room and comfortable space for our furnishings.
