5 double bedrooms across a converted, spacious mid-terrace layout
Immaculate, newly renovated interior with modern kitchen and two bathrooms

Victorian stone walls likely uninsulated; older property maintenance required
Above-average local crime and wider area deprivation are notable concerns
Hidden behind a modest Victorian façade is a deceptively spacious, newly renovated mid-terrace that now offers five double bedrooms across an arranged-internal footprint once formed by two properties. The recent refurbishment has created a bright, contemporary feel while retaining period character such as the stone exterior and sash-style windows. The standout kitchen opens to a generous dining/family room, ideal for modern family life and entertaining.
The property sits on a small plot with a neat front garden, a rear decked sitting area, and an enclosed garden with parking space — rare for a central village location. Strong practical benefits include mains gas central heating, double glazing (installation date unknown), an Energy Rating of 75 (Band C) and freehold tenure. The location is a short walk from shops, bars, cafés and the train station, making daily travel and local amenities very convenient.
Buyers should note some material negatives: the neighbourhood records above-average crime and the wider area shows signs of deprivation. The building is Victorian stone with assumed uninsulated solid walls, and photographs indicate potential damp areas at the front that may need investigation. While the house has been comprehensively modernised, future owners should factor in ongoing maintenance typical of older stone mid-terraces.
This substantial family-sized home will suit buyers seeking a generous, characterful home with modern living spaces and outdoor privacy, particularly those who value village amenities and good transport links. Investors or buyers wanting a low-maintenance, turn-key purchase will appreciate the recent refurbishment, but families should weigh local school options and neighbourhood safety alongside the clear lifestyle benefits.
