A beautifully appointed boutique-style shower room also serves this level. On the top floor, there are two further well-proportioned double bedrooms, both bright and airy, along with a contemporary family bathroom positioned between them. The upper landing is naturally illuminated by a central cupola, enhancing the sense of space and architectural interest throughout the home. Externally, the property benefits from private gardens to both the front and rear. The front garden is gated and enclosed, providing an attractive buffer from the street, while the generous rear garden is fully enclosed and thoughtfully landscaped for low maintenance. It enjoys excellent afternoon and evening sun and offers a wonderful space for outdoor dining and relaxation. On-street parking is available via the Greenway system, with residents' permits also available. The property is fitted with gas central heating and double glazing, and has undergone extensive refurbishment in recent years, including a new boiler, radiators, kitchen and bathrooms.
