A charming and versatile Edwardian house on the canal side.

Situated within a peaceful side road, overlooking St John's College playing field at the front and the canal side to the rear, an elegant Edwardian residence providing generous proportions arranged over three floors. A welcoming entrance hall leads to a principal reception room and a kitchen/dining room that has been extended with skylights affording a wealth of natural light throughout. French doors from the dining area open onto a terrace and garden. The living room is situated to the front of the house with a bay window and two fireplaces in what was once two separate rooms and now flows beautifully between the entrance hall and French doors into the kitchen. The first floor is arranged as three bedrooms, a family bathroom and shower room off. The largest of the bedrooms is at the front of the house with a bay window and a range of built-in wardrobes across the other two rooms. The loft space has been converted into a light and spacious room, which can be used as a bedroom studio or den.

The gardens are situated to the front and the rear of the house with the front bounded by a brick wall and gravel path leading to the front door. The rear garden descends from the rear of the house among mature and well established borders down to a home office studio on the canal side.
