An immaculate two-bedroom semi-detached property set in the village of Castleside.

The property has a quaint, cottage-style aesthetic and a warm, homely feel. Beautifully presented throughout, it benefits from a high-quality internal finish and striking, well-maintained gardens to both the front and rear. This home could prove ideal for a first-time buyer or those looking to downsize.

On arrival, you’ll be immediately impressed by the attractive frontage, with a winding path meandering through charming cottage-style planting, leading to the traditional sage green composite front door.

Stepping inside, you enter a spacious hallway, where stairs rise to the first floor, framed by a modern black statement balustrade. A side window allows natural light to flood the space, and there is generous under-stairs storage ideal for coats and shoes. A wall-mounted digital thermostat adds a touch of modern convenience.

Doors lead off to the ground floor accommodation...

At the front of the property is a beautifully presented, cosy lounge. A brick-clad chimney breast perfectly frames the log-burning fire (installed circa 2023), creating a warm and inviting retreat. As part of their renovations, the owners added extra power sockets and a data cable for convenience. The property has also been fitted with new radiators throughout, selected to provide the highest BTU output for maximum warmth and efficiency.

To the rear, the spacious kitchen diner features a range of navy-blue wall and base units, a fitted dishwasher, and a freestanding Stoves gas range cooker with a filter extractor hood above. A stylish brick slip splashback adds a touch of sophistication to the space. There is ample room for a dining table, making this a sociable environment for cooking and enjoying meals.

A conservatory leads off the dining area, with durable tiled flooring and access to the garden – the perfect spot to enjoy a morning coffee.

To the first floor is the family bathroom, which features a white suite with black fittings, including a ‘P’-shaped bath with a rainfall shower over, and a tasteful metro-tile splashback for a clean and simple finish.

The second bedroom is positioned to the rear of the property, overlooking the garden, and includes a storage cupboard housing the BAXI gas combi boiler. This room also has the benefit of a new data cable, ideal for creating an effective home-working space.

The main bedroom is located at the front and stretches the full width of the house. It benefits from recessed alcove space, a built-in storage cupboard, and a window providing pleasant natural light. This room also has the benefit of added USB power outlets.

Externally, there are beautifully tended gardens to both the front and rear. The front garden offers a range of seasonal cottage-style planting, with side access leading around to the rear. The rear garden has been recently fully refenced and thoughtfully landscaped to create a variety of useable areas. A paved area leads off the conservatory, with a pathway meandering through a lush lawn and planted borders. Many of the potted plants will be taken by the current owners, leaving a blank canvas for you to design the garden to your own tastes. An outhouse with a window provides additional storage.

At the bottom of the garden, a decked seating area, greenhouse, and BBQ space provide the perfect setting to enjoy this magnificent outdoor retreat.
