Beautifully presented and character-filled two-bedroom terraced home, ideally located on Grove Road, just moments from Shirley High Street and local amenities. This unique property seamlessly blends period features with modern upgrades, offering a stylish and practical living space throughout.
As you enter through an elegant Edwardian stained glass door, complemented by a matching transom window, you're welcomed into a charming hallway with decorative coving, ceiling roses, and a bespoke shoe cabinet capable of holding up to 40 pairs. This clever feature also conceals radiators, with glove compartments that warm your items during the winter months. At the end of the hallway, a heated cloakroom offers convenient and cosy coat storage.
To the front of the property is the kitchen, positioned to benefit from morning sunlight through its east-facing bay window. A small breakfast nook fits perfectly into the alcove, making it an ideal spot to enjoy your morning coffee.

Double doors from the hallway and sliding doors from the kitchen lead into a striking dining room, perfect for entertaining. High ceilings, ornate coving, ceiling roses, and a stylish radiator cover add to the home's period charm.
Beyond the dining room is a bright corridor illuminated by a stunning skylight. Along this passageway, you'll find a stylish downstairs WC with India slate walls, floor tiles with matching skirting, and a separate utility room. The utility space includes fitted cabinetry with underlighting, a worktop and sink, plus a washing machine, dryer, and practical storage solutions for cleaning tools.

STAYING SAFE ONLINE:
While most people genuinely aim to assist you in finding your next home, despite our best efforts there will unfortunately always be a small number of fraudsters attempting to deceive you into sharing personal information or handing over money. We strongly advise that you always view a property in person before making any payments, particularly if the advert is from a private individual. If visiting the property isn’t possible, consider asking someone you trust to view it on your behalf. Be cautious, as fraudsters often create a sense of urgency, claiming you need to transfer money to secure a property or book a viewing.
