IN THE OWNER'S WORDS
"It took almost a year to find a house that would tick all the boxes. We had a small 2 bed cottage and wanted to upgrade. We purchased the house wanting to start a small family and take on a project where we could put our own touch to something.
The house was completely derelict when we purchased it but the gardens were large and house had unforeseen potential to be beautiful.
There are schools near by and only 10mins walk to town to really made the property even more appealing.
After getting stuck into what was a detailed renovation project we began to fall even more in love with our home.
We now have a small boy who loves the open space and large gardens and the extension has just added more useable space for everyone to use.
Our neighbours are friendly and approachable and have always been a part of this journey. "
PROPERTY
This superbly remodelled home is fantastically presented and should definitely be seen.
A large U-shaped sweeping drive is gated from the road for privacy. There is ample parking and space for recreational vehicles.
An attractive front porch with French Oak pillars enhances the kerb side appeal of the home.
Entering the home, a glazed inner porch creates an entrance hall with a door leading to the sitting room and kitchen.
Having been completely renovated by the current owners, the kitchen is breathtaking. A bay window to the front elevation floods light into the room. At one end, a range of navy kitchen cabinets with a polished and painted teak worktop house a built-in fridge freezer, dishwasher, wine fridge and larder. A Belfast sink with brass taps and an attractive tiled splashback adds character. The central island is home to a double oven range with induction hob, while an oversized chopping board style worktop creates a breakfast bar that contrasts with the white Corian worktop. There is ample space for a good-sized dining table as well. This is a superbly considered kitchen which exudes style.
To the opposite side of the house is a fine sitting room. A south facing bay window floods the room with light. There is a splash of colour with a yellow vertically mounted radiator. A dark oak LVT floor runs throughout the ground floor.
Crittall Doors lead from the sitting room into a modern single storey rear extension which runs the full width of the house. This has created a snug or reading area which looks out to the landscaped garden through large Crittall glazed doors. There are inbuilt cabinets creating a bar area and a skylight allowing plenty of natural light into this area of the house. This extension runs behind the kitchen to include a cloak room as well providing a utility area with built-in cupboards which match the kitchen.
Upstairs there are three double bedrooms, a family bathroom and an additional family shower room.
Outside, the property offers a single garage which has been converted into an office or playroom, a larger outbuilding which is used as a workshop and store and there is a third garden shed in the garden.
The rear landscaped gardens include two large, decked areas. One just outside the kitchen for al-fresco dining while the other, at the top of the plot, has a pergola and has been located to catch the evening sun. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn and is fenced making it child and pet friendly.
SURROUNDING AREA
The property occupies a most convenient position within half a mile of the city centre.
