Comprehensively upgraded, extended, and finished to an exacting standard, this truly outstanding double bay-fronted, semi-detached villa is situated on a superb south-facing garden plot, with impressive open views at the rear across the neighbouring district and beyond. 


Dating back to circa 1930, this unique villa is one of only four built in this distinctive style.

The bathroom has been elegantly refitted with a freestanding roll-top claw foot bath and traditional thermostatic dual shower system. The property is also equipped with double glazing, gas-fired central heating with traditional column-style radiators in all rooms, and a replacement Vaillant combination boiler. On the outside, the gardens have been landscaped, and the roof soffits, fascias and downpipes have been recently replaced with PVC equivalents.


The accommodation comprises a covered porch leading into a warm and welcoming reception hallway with a useful under-stair storage cupboard and a staircase rising to the upper level. The bright and attractive lounge features a broad bay window to the front and French doors leading to the rear garden. The formal dining room, with a bay window overlooking the front garden and a cast iron fireplace on the focal wall, is open plan to the kitchen. The kitchen boasts an extensive range of base and wall-mounted storage units with ample space for freestanding appliances. Minimalistic floor to ceiling kitchen storage includes a pull-out pantry, utility cupboard, and integrated Smeg microwave oven. The kitchen also boasts a freestanding Smeg range cooker with induction hob, and matte terrazzo style wall tiles.

The landing leads to three spacious bedrooms: The principal bedroom with a bay window to the front, the second bedroom with a cast iron fireplace on the focal wall, the third bedroom with integrated shelving and opportunity to reopen an original fireplace, and a stunning three-piece family bathroom.


Outside, the meticulously maintained and family-friendly gardens are primarily laid to lawn, bordered by a generous apple tree and various shrubs.
