We are delighted to present to market this delightful end terraced lower villa, bursting with character and charm, located on Shandon’s popular Ashley Terrace. The home has been lovingly enhanced by the current owners, adding a new bathroom floor and secondary glazing in the main bedroom. In addition to pretty front and rear private gardens, the home benefits from a large cellar space that spans the footprint of the property.
The sophisticated sitting room / dining room is located to the rear, with a south westerly orientation and outlook to the garden. Direct access to the garden is by way of a glazed door which floods the room with natural light.
There is a bright, well-proportioned modern kitchen with views to the garden, fitted with wall and base mounted cabinetry and has an integrated gas hob, oven, fridge/freezer, washing machine and dishwasher.
To the front is the spacious and pretty bay windowed double bedroom. There are a series of large wardrobes which will be included in the sale. A lovely second double bedroom is located to the rear, with a cornice and fitted carpet. The styish bathroom embraces period character with a modern twist and is flooded with natural light, fitted with a bath (and shower over), WC and wash hand basin, completing the internal accommodation. The room also benefits from under floor heating. Heating and hot water is provided by gas central heating and there is partial double glazing.
Externally, there are enclosed private front and rear gardens. The front garden benefits from a hedge giving privacy and has raised planters. To the rear, the South West facing garden is a great place to enjoy the sun in good weather, with a lawn, patio area and shed.
