Inside, spacious rooms brim with light and character. At the front, the beautifully proportioned living room is easy to live in come rain or shine with uninterrupted sunshine streaming through a broad bay window with glorious stained glass detail and an easy light, coal effect fire for guests to enjoy in the evenings.

All about celebrating friends, family and an al fresco lifestyle, next door the private dining room spans 3.80 x 3.60m (12’5 x 11’9) which works well for everyday but is also perfect for parties with a central door in the wide back bay opening to the big, back garden - which becomes another room during summer. Lovely as they are, it’s worth noting that some neighbours have connected these two rooms.

Bright and cheerful, the kitchen is ripe for a makeover. Although we all want the kitchen of our dreams, it’s good to know that this one gives you time to plan as the layout, storage and working surfaces are practical, and its good to go with a sink and power for a cooker and plumbing for machines.

Outside, the garden is a tranquil haven surrounded by a sea of gardens. Private and sunny it is child and pet secure behind fencing and it’s level with the house (unusual in a city built on hills) with a long, broad lawn surrounded by mature borders planted for scent and all year interest.

Upstairs this house spreads its wings with a light and inviting hallway where the family bathroom is a spacious retreat with all you need including natural light, electric shower over the bath and warming rails for towels. At the back, two quiet double bedrooms, one with built in wardrobes, look over leafy gardens – so they are not directly overlooked - whilst at the front, a comfortable principal room of 3.80 x 3.60m (12’5 x 11’9) with a romantic, rounded bay offers relaxing, quiet nights.
