The Property

Stepping under the pan tiled storm porch we enter The Limes via the entrance hall, pamment tiles under foot provide a practical and attractive flooring solution whilst under stairs storage offers space for coats and boots. The sitting room leads to our right. The inset fire place provides an attractive focal point to the room whilst light from two aspects fills the room and reflects off the solid wood flooring, complimenting this family space. Stepping across the hall we find our Dining Room where the terracotta pamment tiles continue from the hall providing a perfect contrast against the cast iron fire place. A window enjoys the view over the rear garden. The inglenook stairs rise from one side of the fireplace whilst a generous storage cupboard sits to the other. The study leads from the dining room and provides an ideal working space in the centre of the home whilst giving access to the family bathroom and kitchen breakfast room. The family bathroom offers a contemporary white suite that comprises a bath with shower over, wash basin and w/c. The kitchen breakfast room completes the ground floor accommodation and truly feels like the hub of this family home. A door opens to the garden whilst the sink is set below the window over looking the outside space. Solid wood worktops are set over the contrasting hand made units which give home to the dishwasher and provide ample storage. Space for the cooker is found within the red brick chimney breast and quarry tiles underfoot provide the perfect flooring solution. Climbing the stairs we arrive on the generous landing which again over looks the rear garden. The master bedroom is found at the head of the stairs, again a dual aspect room which mirrors the sitting room below, an ornate fireplace reminds us of the age of the house whilst a large storage alcove is found adjacent. Along the landing we find three further generous bedrooms in succession all of which over look the front aspect of the property. Completing the accommodation is the first floor shower room, finished with a modern suite which offers a shower, wash basin and w/c. The airing cupboard is found within the room which houses the recently fitted combination boiler.



Outside

Approaching the property from the road we pass the garage and enter the grounds via a shingled driveway that leads to the main entrance and provides gated access to the rear garden. From the Kitchen Breakfast Room we step out onto an extensive patio area which over looks the gardens and leads to the personal door into the garage. The main of the garden is laid to lawn which is enclosed by a attractive red brick wall and timber fencing. Low lying beds frame the borders of the garden and are filled with a range of perennial flowers and shrubs. A timber shed and greenhouse are in situ and an established vegetable garden is ready for this seasons crop.
