Orchardlea is a charming period cottage dating from the turn of the 19th century. It is a mid-terrace property with accommodation arranged over 3 floors. On entering the property via the new composite front door there is a useful entrance hall with multiple coat pegs and inner hall door. An elegant polished oak floor runs through the ground floor providing an abundance of natural light in the sitting room and dining room. The sitting room features a period gas fireplace with a Bath stone surround, while the dining room has space for a 6-8 person dining table as well as built-in period cupboards and shelving and a solid fuel wood burner. The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with sculptured corner units, compressed quartz work tops and NEFF integrated appliances. The main family bathroom is on this floor with a large bath with shower over.
A 'candy stripe' carpet runs up the stairs to the first and second floors. The first floor features 2 double bedrooms with a large storage cupboard under the stairs in bedroom 2. All 3 bedrooms retain their elegant decorative period fireplaces. The master bedroom is situated on the top floor and benefits from a recently upgraded ensuite shower room with a large walk-in shower with brushed brass fittings and a heated towel rail.
Externally there are gardens to the front and rear. The front garden is fully fenced and features a secure bicycle store. The garden is laid mostly to lawn with mature borders. The rear garden is accessed from the kitchen with a flag-stone courtyard and mature borders. Its south-west aspect makes it perfect for summer evening BBQs and sundowners.
