The Grand Tour
Entry is from the front, via an olive-green glazed front door. This opens to the living room, a generous and versatile room with built-in shelving, a cupboard beneath the stairs, and a curtain-covered nook ideal for tidying away throws and games. On one side, a traditional log-burner has been added atop a deep-red tiled hearth.
The kitchen lies beyond, with a generous bank of earthy brown cabinetry arranged in a U-shape. A gas range-style oven is set centrally; other appliances include a dishwasher and a fridge, with a freezer, washer and dryer located in the integrated garage. Natural stone floor tiles run underfoot, continuing into the adjoining dining area, where folding doors reveal the garden beyond.
The staircase ascends to the first floor, which is home to three bedrooms, two with decorative cast-iron fireplaces. All are serene spaces that overlook the quiet road in front or the garden at the rear. The principal bedroom also has two built-in cupboards with generous hanging space.
Ornate blue tiles are a counterpoint to the otherwise white scheme used in the bathroom, also positioned on the first floor.
Additional storage is provided by a cellar.
The Great Outdoors
At the rear is a delightful garden, largely lawned but with a peaceful, slightly sunken seating area nearest the dining room double doors. A bed runs along one side and is planted with a royal purple smoke tree. At the foot of the garden is a shed for convenient garden storage, along with wisteria and evergreen jasmine.
There is also a garage which could be used to park a car, but is presently used for storage.
