Introducing 'Bleak House', a stunning Edwardian gem constructed to celebrate the centennial of Charles Dickens' birth. This detached residence marvelously retains a host of original features, such as a tiled fireplace, ornate doors, and a classic staircase, now seamlessly integrated with contemporary design elements. Nestled on a generous plot, the property boasts a vast, secluded rear garden, offering a unique chance to own a piece of local history, presented in a move-in-ready condition.
Upon entering through the composite front door, you are welcomed into a charming porch with side windows and a geometrically tiled floor, leading to the main hallway. This area features a solid staircase adorned with a carpet runner and chrome stair rods, geometric floor tiles, and soft lighting, setting a tone of understated elegance.
The lounge, measuring 4.00 x 3.18 meters, is illuminated by sash windows and features a beautifully restored original tiled fireplace with a real flame gas fire set in a traditional surround. High gloss wood flooring extends throughout, with double glazed sliding doors opening onto the rear garden patio.
Adjacent is the dining room or sitting area, spacious at 4.54 x 3.15 meters, with secondary glazed sash windows and additional side windows equipped with wooden shutters. A modern log-burning stove sits beneath a wooden beam mantel, creating a cosy ambiance complemented by wood-effect laminate flooring.
The kitchen is a model of modern efficiency, outfitted with UPVC double glazed windows overlooking the garden, and a range of wall and base units topped with quartz worktops. It includes a sunken stainless steel sink, integrated appliances, and ceramic hob with an extractor fan, alongside tiled walls and floors for easy maintenance. A side door provides direct access to the garden.
The first-floor landing is airy and light, with a UPVC double glazed window offering garden views and an original spindled staircase leading to the bedrooms. Bedroom One features fitted wardrobes and wood-effect laminate flooring, while Bedroom Two includes an ornamental original wrought iron fireplace.
