IF YOU LIVED HERE...

Lovable highlights will be everywhere from the very start. Step through your smart red front door inset with vintage stained glass and lovingly restored original timber floorboards flow underfoot into your 275 square foot through lounge. In here a tranquil sage green colour scheme runs up to the original cornicing and a striking marbled mantel and ebony, tiled hearth take centre stage. Classic bistro shutters sit on the box bay window to the front while to the rear and you can step out to your garden to the rear.

At the end of the hall your 200 square foot kitchen/diner makes for another fine hosting space, Twin flanks of soft blue cabinets with chunky white worktops and a Dublin sink face each other across the slate flooring, giving way to more vintage timber underfoot in the bay windowed dining area, also home to a second stately vintage hearth. Open up those bay window doors and step out into your garden, an impeccably landscaped mix of patio and lawn flanked by timber fencing and thriving greenery. There's even a secluded gravel seating area at the end.

Upstairs and your gorgeous 220 square foot principal bedroom gets the sleeping arrangements off to a splendid start, with heaps of natural light courtesy of the box bay window, an ornate original hearth and marbled mantel, plus vintage timber floorboards and a soft grey paintjob up to the picture rail. Two more double bedrooms complete the first floor, along with your striking family bathroom, a splendid affair with freestanding teardrop tub and walk in rainfall shower, backed with gorgeous herringbone tilework.

Upstairs again for another superb double sleeper, close on 250 square feet and dual aspect between twin skylights and a Juliet balcony. Blonde hardwood floors and plentiful storage make this a wonderfully self-sufficient solace. A second impeccable bathroom sits next door, with more of that fantastic herringbone tilework running from floor to ceiling in the skylit, rainfall shower cubicle. Heaven. Bedroom number five sits to the rear, with an artfully angled window overlooking the garden.
