The original quarry tiles to the front are still in situ, and the owners installed a new front door in a deep pine forest green. There are two interconnecting reception rooms, one with a reproduction-style fireplace and tiled insert, that the current owners reconfigured slightly to accommodate a guest toilet with shower under the stairs.

Topped with Silestone

They also added built-in shelving for books and artworks in the reception rooms and floored the hall, living and dining rooms in a white laminate that gives a real sense of space. A new crisp-white kitchen has replaced Shaker-style units in the u-shaped kitchen space to the rear of the property.

The family bathroom, located on the return, at the top of a steep stairs, has also been upgraded. It is now fitted with a roomy shower and twin sinks set into a wall-hung unit topped with Silestone, the same material used in the kitchen countertops.

There are two good doubles on the first floor, both with built-in wardrobes and the third double is located on the return, under the eaves. This bedroom has a large Velux window, original to the house.

A small courtyard to the rear will allow you to get some evening sun. Parking is on street.
