The property has recently been refurbished with modern kitchen and shower room, new floor coverings throughout and now provides a character three bedroom semi-detached accommodation with double glazing throughout and modern electric storage heaters. The living space extends to some 838sq ft arranged over three floors with lovely rural views. The ground floor comprises a kitchen, sitting room, utility room and shower room. The newly refurbished kitchen has attractive oak beams to the ceiling and vinyl flooring with a good range of fitted base and wall units with worksurfaces having inset stainless steel sink and electric hob with extractor hood above and integrated electric oven. A door gives access to the rear of the house. The main entrance door leads into the conservatory on the front of the house which is south facing offering a lovely living space with superb outlook.
On the first floor there is a small landing which gives access to two bedrooms. In the larger of the two bedrooms, stairs lead up to the third bedroom on the second floor which is set partially into the eaves.
The current owners have re-landscaped the outdoor space to provide a new vehicular access off Lower Road providing a wide entrance and newly surfaced driveway leading up into a large parking area set to the side of the house. An area to the front of the house has been seeded with grass to provide a lawned sitting out area. There is timber fencing running down each side of the property and hedging along the rear boundary. An original small, brick-built outhouse provides useful storage.
