PROPERTY
This stylishly presented three bedroom period house with rendered elevations is generously proportioned and has been fully renovated by the current owners. Finished to a high standard throughout, this family home benefits from generous off road parking and a large garden to the rear.

On entering, you are greeted by a warm entrance hallway with polished floorboards running through to the two reception rooms and up the stairs, which are finished with a contemporary runner, together with useful understairs storage.

The living room enjoys a dual aspect with a window to the front and French doors to the rear, a Clearview wood-burning stove with wooden mantel over and slate hearth, creating a cosy focal point for chilly evenings.

The dining room is generously proportioned and features a fireplace with useful fitted shelves to one side.

The contemporary kitchen is beautifully fitted with a striking range of navy blue wall and base units with steel handles and a wooden work surface with matching upstand. There is an integrated oven with extractor over and space for an American-style fridge freezer and dishwasher, a handy breakfast bar, an upright radiator and a separate built-in larder.

A door leads from the kitchen into a useful utility room fitted with matching cupboards to the kitchen, a WC and hand wash basin. There is plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer. A further door leads to the outside.

On the first floor there are three generous bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from floor-to-ceiling quality fitted wardrobes spanning either side of an ornate fireplace and a dual aspect framing far-reaching views over the North Downs to the rear.

The bathroom is luxuriously appointed with underfloor heating and is fitted with a modern white suite including a bath, separate shower cubicle with waterfall shower head and WC, along with a wash hand basin set into a wall-hung vanity unit with a mirrored cabinet over.

OUTSIDE
The house is approached over a block-paved driveway with brick entrance piers. Steps lead down to the front door, which has an attractive storm porch protecting it from the elements. A range of shrubs softens the frontage and a path leads around to a side gate providing access to the rear garden. The rear garden is a good size and terraced, with a patio area adjacent to the house leading down to two areas of lawn and a brick-built garage. The garden and garage also benefit from their own access. The garage offers valuable storage - an unusual and useful feature for a semi-detached home.
