This beautiful three/four-bedroom semi-detached period property has been the home of the same family for 17 years. During this time the owners have spared no expense in lovingly renovating and extending the house to a very high standard, retaining and reintroducing original period features, whilst at the same time fully modernising the home inside and out.
It offers a large driveway and a large rear garden with mature trees creating privacy, perfect for outdoor activities. The interior is modern, with ample space and natural light.

Inside
The house has undergone modern renovation but retained and reintroduced original period features including restoration of the staircase, original floorboards to first floors have been stripped and oiled as well as all internal 1930s period doors, including a feature stained glass door to the utility room.
The house has been completely rewired, extended across the ground floor to create a spectacular open plan, vaulted kitchen / living space with Velux windows that flood in natural light. This space is fitted with a contemporary Contura wood burner with soapstone surround that radiates heat even long after the fire has gone out. It is a unique feature that truly makes this room the heart of the home. The spacious open-plan room is perfect for family gatherings and entertaining friends, and offers plenty of storage throughout, and has French doors to access the large rear patio and mature garden.
The ground floor also benefits from a separate front room with large bay window and lots of contemporary storage, currently used as a study for home working. However, the room is large enough to accommodate a double bed and wardrobes and so could easily be used as a fourth bedroom. Also on the ground floor is a separate galley utility room, perfect for laundry and storage including a tall hoover cupboard, together with a cloakroom and a separate modern shower room and w.c.
Upstairs, the three bedrooms are all bright and airy, with ample storage and a newly fitted modern bathroom. The loft space is accessed from the landing through a large hatch and pull-down ladder, and has been boarded throughout as a large and useful storage space, with a light and skylight.
Outside
In recent years the original slate roof has been carefully under felted and relaid, all the brickwork repointed, new double glazing throughout, the front bay has been renovated with period clay tiles, the driveway and rear patio newly paved, the front wall rebuilt with original period copings and pier caps, and finished with a contemporary railing with matching gate to the side of the house.
Energy Saving Measures
The house has been cavity wall insulted and the loft space insulated. The owners replaced the old boiler with an efficient Worcester Bosch condensing boiler some years ago, which has been serviced annually. A new water-saving butt has been installed at the back of the house.
