A beautifully appointed, stylish, bay-fronted Victorian house, just 100m from the River and within the catchment area for the highly regarded Chesterton Community College.
This fantastic two-bedroom Victorian terrace has been extensively refurbished and refitted by the current owners, the result of which is very impressive.
The property is entered via a bespoke solid timber front door leading to the hallway, benefitting from original period corbels which takes you into the open plan living/dining room, both with underfloor heating. There are replaced sash windows with shutters, bespoke fitted shelving, a multi-fuel burning stove contrasted by a Portland Stone surround and cabinetry on either side, ornate ceiling roses and attractive cornicing. The kitchen has base and eye-level cupboards, wooden worktops and a door to the garden.
Upstairs there are two bedrooms, both have fitted wardrobes/cupboards, feature cast iron fireplaces, original, stripped floorboards, and shutters. The bathroom has a shower over the bath, a wash basin, heated towel rail and WC. There is access from the landing via a ladder to the part-boarded loft space.
The current owners have carried out an extensive refurbishment including re-wiring, heating and plumbing, re-plastering, a damp proof course, decoration, flooring including engineered oak herringbone, patterned tiles and re-finished original boards. There is gas central heating with underfloor heating in the living room, cast iron radiators in the bedrooms and bespoke double glazing. Planning permission for a rear extension and loft conversion was obtained (ref:20/03476/HFUL) although this has now lapsed. RSJs and pads were pre-installed in readiness for the works.
Outside, there is a front garden enclosed by walling with space for bikes. Pedestrian access via a secure gate leads to the southwest-facing rear garden which is a good size and is mainly lawn, it is enclosed by fencing, has a paved area adjoining the house, and a shed.
Although these particulars are thought to be materially correct their accuracy cannot be guaranteed and they do not form part of any contract.
