To the left, the sitting room spans the depth of the property and is beautifully arranged as two distinct yet connected areas. It showcases many of the home’s finest period features, including a full-height bay window with sash windows, cast-iron fireplaces, one with a gas insert and the other with a Morso log burner, fitted alcove cupboards, original coving and character radiators.

Two bathrooms serve the first floor: a family bathroom with a freestanding cast-iron bath and a separate shower room with a walk-in double shower, completing the accommodation with style and practicality.

Garden - At the front, a wrought iron gate set between stone pillars opens onto a quarry-tiled path leading to the entrance porch. The attractive front garden, enclosed by natural stone walls and wrought iron railings, offers a generous depth from the road and is laid to lawn with brick-edged borders and well-planted flower beds featuring a mix of mature shrubs.
