Traditional Stone Built Home With Striking Period Features, Modern Kitchen And Generous Garden Grounds

Dating back to around 1900, this attractive two bedroom semi-detached home combines the character of a traditional stone built property with a number of modern improvements. It has generous rooms, distinctive period features and a layout that benefits from a sun lounge, utility room and a useful home office.
The traditional stone exterior creates an impressive first impression, with prominent bay windows and a slate roof giving the house plenty of character. A low stone boundary wall and traditional iron gate lead into the front garden, where gravel and neatly kept shrubs create an attractive approach to the entrance.
You enter the home through the front door into a small entrance vestibule, where you’re met with a beautiful timber framed internal door with decorative stained glass panels. Beyond this, the main hallway has timber flooring, traditional skirting boards and richly coloured timber doors and surrounds.
The sitting room is at the front of the house, alongside the staircase, and is a wonderfully individual space with plenty of room for a large sofa suite and additional furniture. The traditional fireplace is the centrepiece, featuring an elaborately carved timber surround with floral detailing, an impressive mantel and an ornate mirror above. Dark grey glazed tiles frame the arched fireplace opening, creating an attractive contrast against the warm timber. The room has a distinctive decorative style, with different coloured walls, patterned wallpaper, white cornicing and a decorative ceiling beam. Timber flooring runs throughout, while a large bay window looks towards the front of the property, with an additional window at the opposite end.
Across the hallway is the kitchen and dining area. The kitchen has been fitted with a modern range of light grey shaker style cabinets, complemented by dark grey worktops and matching grey wood effect splashbacks. A timber shelving section has been incorporated among the wall cabinets, with space for plates, cookbooks and display items. A large range style cooker sits beneath a stainless steel extractor hood, while the decorative splashback behind it adds a splash of colour and personality to the cooking area. There is also a built-in microwave and a white sink and draining board. There’s plenty of room here for a large family dining table and chairs, with the large bay window creating an attractive setting. The room’s decoration includes dark grey painted sections beneath a contrasting tan coloured upper section, while timber effect flooring continues underfoot.
Towards the rear of the house is the sun lounge, a lovely additional sitting area that overlooks the garden. Natural timber surrounds frame the windows, while the walls are decorated in a warm beige colour, complemented by a patterned carpet.
The utility room is a practical addition. A dark worktop runs beneath the window, with a stainless steel sink and space below for a washing machine.
Also on the ground floor is the shower room, which has been finished in a contemporary mix of light green and grey. A spacious shower enclosure fills one side of the room, fitted with chrome shower controls and wall mounted support rails. Opposite sits a traditional looking grey vanity cabinet with a white rectangular basin fitted on top. The room also includes a white toilet, tall grey storage cabinet and a traditional chrome heated towel rail. White marble effect flooring completes the modern appearance.
The traditional timber staircase leads to the first floor, where the landing continues the character found downstairs. A grey carpet covers the floor, while the stained timber doors, matching surrounds and attractive banister provide a warm contrast against the cream painted walls. From here, there is access to the two bedrooms and a separate office.
Bedroom one is an impressive double room, generous in size with space for much more than the usual bedroom furniture. The room is decorated with light green and warm brown tones, with a beige carpet and an attractive ceiling light fitting. One of its most distinctive features is the traditional fireplace, with a white painted surround, glossy yellow tiles and a decorative timber mirror above. A large bay window sits to the front, creating a lovely additional area where a small table and chairs are currently positioned. This room also has the convenience of its own en-suite. It’s a compact room with a light pink toilet and matching wall mounted basin that add an individual touch. There is also a chrome ladder style heated towel rail and a window providing natural light.
The second bedroom is another generous double room with a distinctive shape created by the angled ceiling and dormer windows. The walls are decorated in a warm tan colour, complemented by a grey carpet and timber skirting boards. A large bay window to the front creates an attractive feature with a smaller dormer window looking out to the rear.
Completing the first floor is a separate office, a valuable room for anyone working from home or needing a dedicated space for studying, hobbies or creative projects. The room has white painted walls and a grey patterned carpet, while a Velux rooflight brings natural light directly into the space.
Outside, the rear garden includes several distinct spaces with a large timber decking area directly beside the house, providing an excellent place for outdoor dining and entertaining. Steps connect the decking to the surrounding garden, where further seating areas and neatly maintained lawns give you plenty of options to enjoy the outdoors. The garden also includes a large gravelled area, currently used for parking a caravan, with neatly shaped bushes providing attractive divisions between the different sections. A detached single garage is accessed from the lane to the rear of the property, with useful space for a vehicle, tools or other equipment. There is also a range of other outbuildings, constructed in a mixture of stone, block and timber. These buildings add to the versatility of the property.
The traditional fireplaces, decorative timberwork and stained glass features give the house a personality that is hard to find, while the modern kitchen, shower room and practical outdoor spaces make it a perfect home for everyday life.
