What The Owners Say
"What first attracted us to the property was the sense of space and how open and welcoming it felt as soon as we walked in. We could immediately picture ourselves living here. The character of the house, combined with a layout that worked perfectly for home working and family life, made it feel special from day one.
Over the years, the house has been a wonderful home for us through so many stages of life, from being two young professionals to bringing our children home from hospital and growing as a family. It has always felt incredibly spacious, practical and welcoming. One of our favourite parts of the home is the garden. It feels private and peaceful and has been the perfect spot for summer evenings with friends and family, creating so many happy memories along the way.
We’ve also loved being part of the Crookes community. Having brilliant cafés, independent shops and green spaces all within walking distance has made everyday life so enjoyable, while the excellent nearby schools and easy access to the city centre made it somewhere we could truly put down roots."
Set across four floors and full of character, this beautifully presented home blends timeless style with flexible living spaces that adapt brilliantly to modern life. From the exposed brick chimney breast in the lounge to the shaker-style kitchen and converted basement, there’s a warm, welcoming feel throughout.
The front door opens straight into the cosy living room where the exposed brick chimney breast immediately catches your eye, framed by built-in shelving and storage. There’s plenty of space for comfortable seating, making it an ideal room to unwind in the evenings.
To the rear of the property is the open-plan kitchen diner, a sociable space that really feels like the heart of the home. The kitchen is fitted with timeless shaker-style units paired with solid oak worktops and tiled splashbacks. Integrated fridge and freezer, electric oven/grill with induction hob and space for a dishwasher complete the setup. The dining area comfortably accommodates a large table and chairs, positioned perfectly in front of the window overlooking the garden, creating a lovely setting for everything from weekday dinners to entertaining friends. A rear door leads directly outside, while another door gives access down to the converted basement.
On the first floor are two bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a generous double with its own stylish en-suite shower room finished with a modern suite, vanity storage and towel radiator. Bedroom two overlooks the rear garden and would work equally well as a nursery, dressing room or home office. The family bathroom is finished in a similar style with a bath and shower above, wash basin with storage and WC.
The second floor adds two further versatile rooms, currently used as a home office and playroom. They would also make excellent guest bedrooms, hobby rooms or additional work-from-home space depending on your needs.
The cellar provides really good quality storage space and benefits from a separate WC.
Outside, the enclosed rear garden is a fantastic bonus, especially with no rights of way from neighbouring properties. A small patio sits directly behind the house before steps lead down to an artificial lawn, while a larger patio at the far end creates the perfect spot for summer barbecues, outdoor dining or evening drinks with friends. Accessed from the garden is a separate rear cellar providing excellent additional storage space for bikes, tools or outdoor equipment.
