This Victorian, semi-detached house is set in a popular area of Southborough with a strong community and very family friendly, with the primary school a short stroll in one direction and lovely country walks through woodland and The Common in the other.
The front door opens into a hallway with plenty of useful storage beneath the stairs with the sitting room to the front with bay window and fireplace as a focal point. The dining room is to the rear, opening to the kitchen, with doors leading out to the garden. The pale grey shaker-style kitchen is well-equipped and designed for modern living while maintaining the character of the home and has integrated appliances including dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer together with a range cooker and fridge/freezer which are also included in the sale.
The accommodation is arranged over 3 floors, with a spacious double room on the first floor with bay window and fitted wardrobes, along with another double room and family bathroom with roll-top bath and separate shower cubicle. The second floor currently provides a single bedroom and a study/child’s bedroom, both beneath the eaves, with the potential to enlarge the space as many neighbours have done, subject to the necessary consents, and enlarge the bedrooms or even create an en-suite. There is useful attic storage above the bathroom, as well as in the eaves cupboards for the top floor rooms.
Outside, there is a small courtyard area to the front with lavender hedge and a side gate provides access to the rear garden. The garden enjoys a south-westerly aspect and is a real sun-trap for sunshine throughout the day. Designed to be low-maintenance, there is a patio and no-mow lawn with raised flower borders and space for a shed to the side for useful storage.
