Property description

We are delighted to be offering for sale this immaculately presented three bedroom double bay character property in highly sought after Copleston School catchment area.

The current owners have thoroughly enjoyed living here for nearly 35 years and in recent times have undergone an extensive programme of re-furbishment and upgrading.

The work includes a modern replacement fitted kitchen by Magnet with extensive range of integrated appliances to remain. There has been the addition of a downstairs utility lobby and separate ground floor shower room and W.C. Which was completely re-fitted in 2013.

The entire house has been internally re-decorated in the last 15 months in contemporary style. A new wood-burner was installed in the fireplace in the lounge in 2016 and has been annually swept since and two new radiators were installed last year. A combination boiler was replaced in 2013 and has been annually serviced ever since.

In 2013 the entire roof was re-slated with a new breather membrane, treated soft wood battens and PVCu fascias soffits, guttering and downpipes.

There is triple width driveway parking at the front plus a pitched roof garage supplied with power and light.

The 64' x 30' rear garden is an absolute delight and has two suntrap sheltered patio areas and is fully enclosed.

Upstairs, bedroom two has full width, full height sliding door wardrobes. The upstairs family bathroom is modern and has been replaced. On the landing is a sturdy pull down cantilever wooden loft ladder with a larger than average hatch. There is a wider than normal landing which may open up potential for conversion of the roof space to additional accommodation.

Also there is a cellar which is accessed from a hatch in the floor of the dining area and provides ample additional storage space.

A delightful property full of character and fine internal features in highly convenient location - what more could you ask!
