This exceptional house seamlessly blends a wealth of character with modern living. A beautiful home with an abundance of space including a stunning hall, three reception rooms, breakfast kitchen, an elegant first floor living room and balcony, four bedrooms, ensuite shower rooms, family bathroom, loft room/home office and wonderful gardens.

This spacious and versatile home has true character throughout with a vast array of original features combined with modern comforts. Last on the market some 45 years ago, it is also a rare opportunity to purchase such an impressive home which is situated on a road known for its character homes being well placed for schools, river side walks, pubs and also within easy reach of the town centre.

This grand home sits back beyond a walled frontage with mature fore garden and a drive giving access to the detached timber garage. A range of outbuildings include a garden store, former wash house with sink, gardeners WC and a large workshop ideal for those seeking a hobby space, offering the potential for a variety of uses.

The front door sets the character tone of the house opening to a large hallway with staircase to first floor and a door accessing the stairs to a cellar (perfect for wine enthusiasts).

There are three reception rooms on the ground floor – the lounge is a light room with bay framing views to front, a large fireplace and windows to the side providing an ideal place to relax. Further along the hall is a stunning character dining room, a wonderful room to entertain with space for a large table, a beautiful fireplace and an original leaded window framing garden views.

The breakfast kitchen is well appointed with a built in dishwasher, range style cooker, windows to both sides along with a very useful pantry/utility.

Completing the ground floor is a games/family room with a blue brick floor and door out to gardens.

To the first floor a large landing has doors leading off. The first floor living room is one of the highlights of the house, an enormous room full of character, currently used as a library/music room with French doors opening out to a covered balcony, perfect for enjoying garden views all year round. This room could also be an outstanding master bedroom should a buyer wish.

Next the generous master bedroom has views to the front, a fireplace and wash basin plus its spacious en suite shower room which has a door returning to the landing. Bedroom two is again an impressive double with garden views, wash basin and a fireplace adding a character feel.

The bathroom is unspoilt featuring the original cast iron bath and tiling, for those seeking a true character home it’s a real rarity also having a fitted cupboard and window to side.

The third bedroom is light and airy, again with a wash basin and fireplace plus a feature window to the side.
The second floor has a landing with a door to a spacious loft room/study believed to be original to the house, with a door to attic space offering extra storage.

The rear gardens are well established and beautiful in all seasons with shaped lawns, mature trees and a vegetable/kitchen garden along with a greenhouse at the top of the garden.
