Accommodation

Upon entering the home, the feeling of charm and character is quite immediately apparent. The sitting room to the right hand side is positioned at the front of the home, and boasts an original feature fireplace, making for the ideal cosy sitting area. A dining room also features an original albeit modernised fireplace, as well as useful understairs storage and a quirky opening to the extended breakfast area off the kitchen, while stairs lead to the first floor. A single door flows into the kitchen, where there is a sociable seating area in front of double doors heading outside onto the decked courtyard. The kitchen itself comprises of numerous wall and base units, ample worktop space, with a stainless steel sink/drainer overlooking the courtyard. There is also space for a washing machine, fridge/freezer, cooker and there is a wall mounted boiler.

The first floor is illuminated by a window at the top of the stairs, and the landing boasts yet more quirky and useful storage areas. Both bedrooms are to the front aspect - bedroom one a large double with stylish en-suite comprising a walk in shower, WC, wash hand basin and heated towel rail. Bedroom two is a smaller double bedroom, while the family bathroom is positioned to the rear aspect and features a luxurious suite comprising a roll top bath, wash hand basin with tiled splashback and WC with wall mounted storage units surrounding. A door from the landing presents access to the top floor via the stairs.

An unofficial bedroom due to building regulations, this converted attic space is a very useful and spacious area which has been frequently used a third double bedroom. But also, could be utilised as a games area or office, while there is also a recently added en-suite comprising a WC, wash hand basin and enclosed shower cubicle. A Velux window to the rear aspect provides light.

Outside & Parking

A secluded rear courtyard garden is designed for easy maintenance, benefits from rear gated access and boasts a perfect south/west facing aspect, proving to be a lovely sun trap. It is accessed from double doors that lead out of the kitchen/breakfast area, creating a warm, cosy and sociable space. A raised decking area makes for low maintenance and it is enclosed with original feature brick wall to the side. An area at the back which leads to the rear gate is ideal for a bit of outside storage, and to the front is where you will find on-street permit parking. The owner has informed us that a resident's permit can be acquired for just £35 per year and that spaces are regularly found directly outside the property. From the pavement, a gate opens onto a short path leading to the front door, while a cute area of garden to the front is neatly kept and decorated with a few small shrubs, colourful bushes and potted plants.

Owner's comments

"Buying 2 Laurel Cottages was like buying a piece of history. I fell in the love with the age, look and charm of the home, and have recently put so much love back into the house to restore it's condition and original features to how it is presented today. Being so close to Rock Park is great and being local to the shops and amenities makes living in the house that little bit more special and convenient. I hope whoever buys 2 Laurel Cottages loves it as much as I do and have many happy times here."
