and tall windows behind. Engineered wood flooring underfoot flows
straight into the dining room beyond, drawing the eye to the bi
folding doors framing the garden. Meanwhile, warming blue paint
below the dado rail matches the dining room walls and runs up a

where rich lavender walls combine with crisp white coving, skirting
boards, dado rails and a ceiling rose with a chandelier fitting to
create a sophisticated air. A white cast iron radiator and a cast
iron fireplace with an elegant stone surround provide warmth, while

and a vertical cast iron radiator to warm the dining area.

splashbacks meet a black Rangemaster cooker with an extractor hood
and chrome fittings to match the handles, plug sockets, and pull

bright thanks to a skylight and a wide window to the garden with a
fitted roller blind. Youll also find a Valiant boiler and room for

appliance.
Back in the hallway, take the stairs with chrome edged wooden

ceiling spots and painted white above the dado rail to match the
hallway downstairs. Light engineered wood flooring runs into all

which is also brightened by a large front facing window screened
with plantation shutters and would make an ideal nursery.
Bedroom three lies to the rear. An excellent size, it overlooks
the garden through two big side and rear windows. Meanwhile, blue
hues beneath the picture rail and a white coved ceiling create a
fresh, natural feel to complement the leafy scenery. Theres also

wall mounted TV point.

screen and rainfall shower, a dark wood mounted basin vanity unit
with a mirror above, and a stylish close coupled toilet.
Back on the landing, a staircase to match the one below rises to
the second floor loft conversion. To your right, youll discover a
generously sized primary bedroom, where neutral walls and
engineered wood flooring reflect light from the ceiling spots and
the glazed double doors opening onto a Juliet balcony with flower
baskets and a fabulous view over the garden.
Head into the spot lit en suite, where opulent white marble
tiles line the floor and walls for a seamless flow into a wet room
rainfall shower beside a designer mounted heated towel rail. A
mounted vanity basin unit with a mirror above and a modern toilet
complete the suite.

stylish pendant, a final door opens to a further spot lit bedroom
with wonderful sky views from three Velux windows, which have a run
of fitted drawers beneath.
Outside, bifold doors open from the dining room onto raised grey
painted decking enclosed by light blue fencing and trellising
punctuated with hanging baskets. With security lighting and an
outdoor tap, its a practical space for gardening or enjoying the
south easterly aspect.
Beyond, paving stones cross a neat lawn filled with a variety of
mature trees, shrubs, and flowers alongside high fences, creating a
peaceful and private setting. To the rear of the garden, youll
discover a charming blue summerhouse with obscured glazed double
doors and a wood burner the ideal spot for some cosy seating to
enjoy cooler evenings. Theres also a matching storage shed with
double doors.
