A beautifully presented Victorian two-bedroom semi-detached home, enhanced by a generous two-storey side and rear extension, offering bright, spacious accommodation, a sunny low-maintenance garden, and off-street parking. <br/> <br/>The property has been thoughtfully extended to create a superb home with excellent space throughout. The sitting room enjoys a sash window with triple glazing to the front aspect and an open fireplace with exposed brick chimney breast and beams, creating a charming focal point. This flows into the well-equipped kitchen, fitted with a range of units, ample work surfaces, and appliance space. The kitchen continues seamlessly into the dining room, where French doors open onto the garden and stairs rise to the first floor. To the side, an additional versatile space features a glazed vaulted ceiling and glazed doors leading outside. <br/> <br/>A separate utility room provides further storage, work surfaces, a second sink, space for a washing machine, and houses the wall-mounted gas boiler. The partially vaulted ceiling adds to the sense of light and character. <br/> <br/>Upstairs, the first-floor landing leads to two generous double bedrooms. The primary bedroom sits to the front with sash window, while the second bedroom overlooks the rear garden and treetops, featuring stripped wooden floorboards and a fitted double cupboard. The family bathroom includes a modern white three-piece suite with shower over the bath. <br/> <br/>Outside, a gravelled driveway to the side offers off-street parking for one vehicle, with gated access leading to a useful side storage area. The rear garden is low-maintenance and predominantly paved, complemented by mature shrubs, plants, and trees. It is fully enclosed and includes a timber shed, with pedestrian access to Number 32. <br/> <br/>Agent’s Note: <br/>The property’s side gable wall shows some outward movement and remedial restraint works have been advised. Quotations for the recommended repairs are available upon request from the agents.
