" We've loved every minute of living in our lovely 1930s house. We've particularly enjoyed spending time in our spacious, light and airy kitchen, looking out to the beautiful magnolia when it blooms in the Spring. Having two young children, it's perfect that we are near some great schools and three excellent parks-Redcatch, Perretts and Victoria. Our neighbours are great and all look out for each other - we've made some firm friends for life! "

The home

A beautifully extended three bedroom 1930's house close to Victoria Park. Downstairs there is a separate reception room to the front with period fireplace and bay window. The rear of the house has been opened up to create a wonderful open plan kitchen/diner/family space with a log burner in the snug and large glass sliding doors leading to a raised deck. There is also a downstairs WC/Utility space. Upstairs are three bedrooms and the family bathroom.

The outside

There is a sunny raised deck directly accessed from the kitchen and then stairs to a lawned area. There is also a double garage accessed by a rear lane.
