Property Details
Welcome to Barton Road, a substantial period home with views over Barton Road playing fields. Step through the side entrance of this traditional 1930s double-fronted home, you’re greeted by a wide welcoming hallway, complete with original staircase panelling – a feature that sets the tone for the character and space this property offers.
The bay-fronted lounge sits to the front, its high ceilings and large windows inviting in plenty of natural light. A traditional open fireplace creates a warming focal point. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the open-plan kitchen-diner, beautifully updated in 2024 with deep green shaker-style units, integrated appliances, and space for family dining or entertaining friends. The original pantry is a rare and practical feature, while the rear extension – currently used as a family playroom – adds valuable flexibility to the ground floor.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms: Two generous doubles - both with built in wardrobes, and a good-sized single, with the main bedroom also benefiting from a bay window and the same uninterrupted green views. The bathroom retains a traditional white suite and is complemented by a separate WC.
Outside, mature hedges provide privacy to the front lawn, while the rear garden offers a safe, enclosed space for play or relaxation. A large detached garage provides excellent storage or workshop potential, and the driveway ensures ample off-street parking. Fully UPVC double glazed and gas central heated, this home blends period character with modern updates, ready to welcome its next owners.
