To the front of the property, pride of place is given to a mature magnolia soulangeana.

This lovely tree is covered with creamy, tulip-shaped blossoms flushed pink when in full flower in April.

Inside the four-bed property, there is vintage charm waiting too, with period architectural features very much in evidence upon first entering the high-ceilinged entrance hall. Elegant cornices and centre roses here and in the two main reception rooms leading off give the property its oldworld character, but an upgrade of the decorative variety could transform this home into something rather special.

There is over 144sq m (1,550sq ft) of floor space; with the two main reception rooms and hallway, remaining accommodation comprises the kitchen, breakfast room, return with bedroom and bathroom, landing, and three further bedrooms.

To the rear is a 56ft long garden with double garage.
