DESCRIPTIONA quite beautiful two bedroom home which forms part of the Grade II listed conversion of Wykeham House School. The property, which was originally the caretaker’s cottage for Wykeham House, is tucked away within the development and has beautifully kept front and rear gardens. The property is accessed through its own 6ft gate and has a walled garden to the front. There is a double glazed entrance porch leading to a hallway with cloakroom off and double doors leading to the open plan sitting/dining room/kitchen.
The kitchen has been refitted since the conversion and has beautiful oak work tops that blend in seamlessly with the oak doors and skirting boards throughout the property. The sitting/dining room also has double glazed doors leading to the enclosed front garden. On the first floor, two well-proportioned bedrooms can be found, the principal bedroom having its own en-suite shower room. A three piece bathroom completes the first floor accommodation. There is a beautifully maintained front garden and a low maintenance rear garden with large garden shed. The property benefits from two allocated parking spaces. As sole agents, we would highly recommend an early inspection to appreciate the standard and convenient position of this beautiful property.
