WHILE making the most of the quirky nooks and features here, the owners have transformed the interior of their 1920s house into a rather modern space.

There are plenty of stripped floors, a galleried landing, picture rails, bay windows and a wooden balcony at the back of the house, while window seats and open fireplaces add interest to the main reception rooms.

Visitors will negotiate an entrance vestibule leading to an inner porch, with a tiled floor, then the hallway, with a stripped wooden floor.

The sitting room is dominated by a bay window and French doors leading to the balcony overlooking the garden, while the huge open fire has seats built in at the sides, a gas point and a brick surround that's painted white, like the rest of the room. There's a beamed ceiling and stripped floorboards that continue into the kitchen and the dining room, which are also painted white.

A bay window in the dining room has a window seat and there's another open fireplace here with a gas point. Through a wide opening, the kitchen has wooden Shaker- style units with black laminated work tops and a breakfast bar.

Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, electric oven and microwave, with space for a fridge/freezer. French doors lead on to the balcony.

Elsewhere on the ground floor is a large utility room, a cloakroom with white suite and a study, again with stripped floorboards and with a built-in Welsh dresser.

Upstairs are five bedrooms, two with built-in storage, and a bath/shower room with white suite.

Accessible via the garden is a basement room, which houses the gas boiler and is used as workshop and store.

There's space for two cars to park at the front of the house, while at the back is a large enclosed lawn.
