In the sought-after area known locally as "The Colonies", is this spacious, extensively modernised and beautifully presented, mid-terrace house of character that offers excellent family-size accommodation, and also retains some lovely period features. The property has gas central heating from a modern wall-mounted combi boiler situated in the kitchen, with a wireless thermostat, and there are thermostat-controlled radiators virtually throughout. It is also double-glazed. In recent years the property has been re-furbished to a high standard including a lovely fitted kitchen with integrated white goods. The property is a bay-fronted terrace house with stone and brick-faced front elevations, and the roof is of man-made slates with a tile-hung gable. At the front is a walled forecourt finished in limestone chippings , and there is an attractive, restored period wrought-iron porch canopy over the entrance. The EPC rating is D, and the Council Tax Rate is E.
