This delightful property, built in 1905, has been a cherished and enjoyed home of our seller for the last 6 years. During this time they have invested in updating and maintaining the property to satisfy today's needs. An electric boiler has been installed to provide efficient and effective heating via radiators, the kitchen has been updated with stylish Shaker style units and some built in appliances including a range style cooker. There are many original character features including two fireplaces, which adds to the charm and provides a cosy atmosphere on a chilly night, some of the rooms have exposed floorboards and the original sash windows have been refurbished.
The property offers plenty of space for a small family or for visiting guests and there is the potential to create additional rooms by developing the loft space, which already has velux windows and an electric and water supply. Outside, there is the option to create off road parking by sacrificing the front garden, whilst to the rear, the large garden provides a blank canvas for your own landscaping ideas and has the added bonus of backing onto a cornfield, providing delightful views of grazing cows and the beautiful countryside.
If you are looking for a home that combines period charm with modern comforts, this semi-detached Edwardian property is the perfect choice for you. A great first time home as well as satisfying many other needs. Viewing is essential to really appreciate all this home has to offer.
