Situated on a pleasant access only lane between Larkhall and Batheaston is this attractive and well maintained 1930's semi detached property offering light and bright accommodation over two floors. There is an off road parking space and a garage to the rear of the property accessed by a shared private access lane from Bailbrook Lane.

The south facing 93ft by 25ft front garden is mostly lawned with steps past an embankment up to the lawn. The elevation of the garden and property makes the most of the views of the surrounding countryside with an outdoor patio seating area next to the property with glazed double doors to the sitting room.

You enter the property into an entrance porch with door to a traditional hallway with sanded wooden floorboards, wooden staircase, banister and spindles. The sanded wooden floorboards flow into the dining room and this continuity is pleasing to the eye and in keeping with the original character of the property. The sitting room with gas stove to the fireplace connects to the outdoor patio seating area through glazed French doors and the south to north orientation floods this room with natural light. A modern kitchen to the rear runs parallel to the dining room with the option of opening up these rooms to create an open plan kitchen dining space. A utility lean to off the kitchen completes the ground floor with doors to both the front and rear gardens.

Upstairs, the first floor includes a well presented landing with side window and doors to all three bedrooms and the bathroom. The bayed front bedroom has the best view in the house with bedroom two to the rear also offering a pleasant view of the green space beyond. The third bedroom is a small double and makes for a perfect work from home office as it also takes in the views to the front. A neutrally decorated bathroom with panelled bath and shower over completes the property.
