Placed within comfortable walking distance of the bustling town centre with an excellent array amenities, schooling nearby, as well as parks and riverside walks, this property is sure to prove extremely popular. Early viewing comes strongly recommended.
Benefitting from full modernisation to an excellent standard, and presented in good decorative order throughout, the internal accommodation comprises; a light, airy, and welcoming entrance hallway with spindled staircase to the upper floor, and access to a spacious storage cupboard and a convenient guest WC. Facing the front, the exquisite sitting room features a recessed fireplace, high ceilings, original ornate cornicing, and charming alcove display shelving. This creates a delightful and relaxing space, adaptable to serve as a third bedroom or formal dining room if required. With a window to the rear, the spacious living and dining area features a convenient walk-in storage cupboard, and a further alcove display shelving. With ample room for both lounge and dining furniture, it provides an ideal gathering space for hosting family and friends.

Integrated appliances include an electric oven, gas hob, and electric extractor hood. Additionally, there's space and connections for a washing machine and undercounter fridge with these appliances in place. The kitchen benefits from a rear-facing window with charming garden views, while an external door to the side provides convenient access to the garden, whilst bathing the space in natural light. Up on the first floor, there is a bright hallway landing illuminated with natural light via a front facing skylight. The property comprises two generously-sized double bedrooms. One is located at the front, featuring twin arched windows, while the other offers charming garden views to the rear. Completing the accommodation is the fantastic, fully tiled modern family bathroom which includes a WC, wash hand basin, a panelled bath with an overhead shower, and a rear-facing Velux window that floods the space with natural light.
Externally, there are private garden grounds to both the front and rear of the property. Mainly laid to decorative red chips, the front garden is partially bound by traditional stone walling, and mature hedging. A paved pathway to the side leads round to the well-maintained, low maintenance, south west facing rear garden which is also laid with decorative red chips surrounded by beautifully mature planted borders. There are several areas perfect for outdoor seating and dining, whilst a timber garden shed provides the convenience of external storage space. The rear garden is fully bound by timber fencing.
