Property description

A Victorian end of terrace four bedroom house with later extensions, a loft conversion with a shower room, and a garage at the rear, situated within walking distance of local amenities in the market town of Olney.

The accommodation has been upgraded throughout and includes a sitting room which has a box bay window to the front, an original fireplace with a wooden mantel and built-in cupboards and display shelving either side, and parquet flooring which continues throughout the ground floor. A sliding door leads into the dining room which has a feature chimney breast, and access to the understairs storage cupboard. The ground floor also has a modern fitted kitchen/breakfast/family room with bi-fold doors to the rear garden, and a cloakroom. On the first floor there is a principal bedroom with a range of built-in wardrobes, two further bedrooms, and a bathroom which has a roll top bath with a shower over, a WC, a vanity wash basin, and a cupboard housing the boiler. The second floor loft conversion created an additional double bedroom which has air conditioning, and a shower room.

Kitchen/Breakfast/Family Room

A particular feature of the property is the extended open plan kitchen/breakfast/family room which has a part vaulted ceiling with skylight windows for extra natural light and bi-fold doors giving seamless access to the rear garden. The kitchen/breakfast room has underfloor heating, and a range of full height, wall and base units with quartz work surfaces incorporating a sink and drainer. The matching island has additional storage and a breakfast bar. There is a built-in dishwasher and washing machine, and space for a range style cooker and an American style fridge/freezer. The area by the bi-fold doors has space for a family seating area.

Outside

The walled front garden has a pattern tile path to the front entrance. The enclosed rear garden is partly walled and has been landscaped with a focus on entertaining with a paved patio seating area outside the bi-fold doors, with a step down to a further paved area with a built-in outdoor kitchen covered by a pergola with outside lighting. The remainder is laid to lawn with established shrub and tree borders providing screening and a paved path leading down to a door to the brick built garage. Vehicle access to the garage is via a service road at the rear.
