A centrally positioned staircase with turned balusters, and fitted oatmeal cut-pile carpet provides separation and rises to the first-floor landing. Family Snug The family snug is finished with riven limestone-effect floor tiles and neutrally decorated walls. A two-light window to the front provides good natural light, while the room offers ample space for freestanding seating. The principal feature is an exposed-brick fireplace with a cambered arch and matching brick hearth, housing a Clearview multi-fuel stove. Built-in cupboards within the adjoining chimney recess have pitch-pine panelled doors and provide useful storage, while also concealing the electrical consumer unit and meter. Four-panel doors lead to the ground-floor cloakroom and the main sitting room. Dining Room The dining room occupies the front left-hand side of the house and provides a natural link between the family snug and kitchen. It continues the neutral decorative scheme and riven limestone-effect flooring, with a two-light front window bringing natural light into the space. An exposed-brick fireplace with a cambered arch forms a distinctive architectural feature. Although not currently in use, it contributes to the room’s period character. A wide opening leads through to the kitchen at the rear. Kitchen Positioned to the rear within the single-storey outrigger, the kitchen is fitted with a range of Shaker-style base and wall units, complemented by solid oak work surfaces and matching upstands. A three-light casement window to the rear provides good natural light over the principal preparation area, while the riven limestone-effect flooring continues from the adjoining dining space. The mono-pitched vaulted ceiling incorporates recessed lighting and a double-glazed rooflight, with further daylight provided by a full-height glazed door opening directly onto the rear terrace and garden.

Cooking facilities include a brushed stainless-steel Britannia range cooker with a four-burner gas hob, central warming plate and twin electric ovens, together with a matching extractor hood and integrated lighting above. Sitting Room The principal sitting room is a well-proportioned dual-aspect reception space, with a two-light casement window to the front, a further casement window to the rear and full-height glazed French doors opening directly onto the terrace and garden. Together, these openings provide good natural light and a strong connection with the outside space. A chamfered ceiling beam adds subtle architectural interest, while the room is finished with neutrally decorated walls and oatmeal cut-pile carpeting. The main focal point is a substantial exposed-brick fireplace with a cambered arch and engineering-brick hearth, fitted with a freestanding cast-iron log grate. There is ample space for a range of freestanding seating and occasional furniture. Cloakroom Located to the rear of the family snug, the ground-floor cloakroom is fitted with a traditionally styled wall-mounted ceramic wash basin with chrome pillar taps and a light blue riven-tile splashback. A close-coupled WC with an oak-effect seat completes the fittings. The riven limestone-effect flooring continues from the adjoining snug, helping to maintain a consistent finish through this part of the ground floor. Natural light and ventilation is provided by a rear-facing casement window with an oak sill, supplemented by mechanical extraction. First-Floor Landing The first-floor landing is positioned to the rear of the house, with a casement window overlooking the garden and providing natural light. The space has neutrally decorated walls, a partly vaulted ceiling with recessed lighting and cut-pile carpeting. Stripped four-panel pine doors with traditional Bakelite handles lead to the three bedrooms and family bathroom. Bedroom One The principal bedroom is a well-proportioned double room with built-in three-door wardrobes providing a combination of full-height shelving, hanging space and lower-level storage. The walls are finished in a soft grey tone, while oatmeal cut-pile carpeting continues from the landing. Natural light is provided by a traditional two-light casement window to the front. A four-panel door opens to the adjoining en suite. En Suite Shower Room The en suite is fitted with a quadrant shower enclosure with sliding glass doors, a chrome wall-mounted shower fitting, a close-coupled WC and a pedestal wash basin with chrome mixer tap. The shower area is lined with full-height marble-effect wall panelling, with riven white ceramic tiling above the wash basin. A Velux rooflight provides natural light, while mechanical extraction is also installed. The room is finished with soft grey emulsion walls and geometric-patterned grey flooring. Bedroom Two Bedroom two is a further double room positioned at the far left-hand side of the house. Its dual-aspect arrangement, with casement windows to both the front and rear, provides good natural light throughout the day. The room has neutrally decorated walls and cut-pile carpeting, with space for additional freestanding furniture. A substantial two-door pippy-oak wardrobe has been fitted with a matching upper cupboard, traditional wrought-iron T-hinges and hammered dome handles, providing useful built-in storage. A large ceiling hatch gives access to the roof void. Bedroom Three Bedroom three is a single room with a two-light casement window overlooking the front of the property. Its proportions also make it well suited for use as a home office or study. A built-in solid-oak cabinet provides useful storage, with double doors, traditional ironmongery, and a matching two-door cupboard above. The room has partly vaulted ceilings, neutrally decorated walls and cut-pile carpeting. Family Bathroom The family bathroom is fitted with traditional-style white sanitary ware comprising a panelled bath with chrome pillar taps and a shower over, a pedestal wash basin with matching taps, and a close-coupled WC. The bath and shower area is finished with riven-effect ceramic tiling and decorative banding, while the remaining walls are painted in a soft grey tone. A substantial built-in airing cupboard, enclosed by a stripped four-panel pine door, houses the unvented hot-water cylinder and incorporates slatted pine shelving for linen storage. Further fittings include a chrome ladder-style heated towel rail and a shaver socket above the basin. Natural light is provided by a frosted two-light casement window with a solid oak sill, with additional ventilation provided by mechanical extraction. Grounds Front and Side Aspects The property fronts directly onto Oak Street, presenting a traditional red-brick façade laid in Flemish bond beneath pitched slate roofs. The front windows are evenly arranged above chamfered engineering-brick sills, while the centrally positioned entrance is set beneath a cambered brick arch and fitted with a solid oak door. A red-brick boundary wall with angled coping stones continues along the side of the property, where double timber gates open onto a gravelled driveway. This provides off-road parking, space for container planting and access to the outbuilding and rear garden. Rear Garden and Outbuilding The generously proportioned rear garden includes a brick and riven-stone terrace, accessed directly from both the kitchen and principal sitting room. This creates a practical connection between the internal living spaces and garden, with ample room for outdoor seating and dining. The terrace is bordered by established planting, including roses and hydrangeas, together with a variety of perennial and seasonal plants. Beyond, the main part of the garden is laid to lawn and enclosed by close-boarded fencing, providing a secure and adaptable area for recreation. The rear elevation reveals the property’s later additions, including the mono-pitched kitchen extension with slate roof covering and cream-rendered sections of walling. The brick terrace continues along the side of the house to a useful adjoining outbuilding, accessed by a ledged and braced timber door. Internally, the outbuilding has white-painted brick walls, lighting and houses the modern gas-fired boiler with a vertical flue. It also provides useful ancillary storage for garden equipment, bicycles and general household items.
