Accommodation - As soon as you turn into Birtley Coppice, you will be taken in by the size of this home that greets you. Step through the front door into a bright, welcoming reception hall with feature staircase and wooden floorboards. Tucked in the corner is a handy guest cloakroom, while to the left you will find a spacious, yet cosy sitting room large enough for the whole family to enjoy. The open fire and ornate surround provide both warmth and the perfect focal point to relax in front of, while natural light floods the space through windows at the front and rear and patio doors, which lead to the garden to the side. Beyond the hall, you will find what is currently used a ground floor bedroom with its own ensuite shower room, that could also serve as further living space.

Re-configured from the original kitchen and utility, there is a functional room which houses the boiler, and could also be used as an office or dressing room. Back across the hall, you come to a cosy snug which in turn leads into the simply show-stopping open-plan living dining kitchen. Bespoke ash units with copper fittings offer plenty of storage, complemented by a bespoke ash dining table (available via a separate negotiation). Quartz work-surfaces provide ample space for preparing your favourite dishes, with space for a range-style oven. A ceramic Belfast sink takes in the bright, sunny, westerly aspect to the front, while bi-fold doors to the rear lead into a private courtyard, ideal for dining and entertaining. Tucked to the side of the kitchen is a handy utility room with plumbing and space for a washing machine and dryer.

To the first floor you will find the principal bedroom suite with dressing room and ensuite bathroom including a separate shower cubicle. There are also two further bedrooms on this level, one currently used as a study space and a family bathroom, as well as the landing with the staircase making for a striking feature. On the second floor, there are two further double bedrooms with eaves storage to the vaulted ceilings, that offer flexibility of use as either bedrooms or studio/home offices.

Outside - A block paved drive to the side provides ample parking and leads to the double detached garage. There is a paved seating terrace that takes in the late afternoon/evening sun, while attractive lawns flank the paved path to the front door. The main garden is situated to the side of the property with an extensive paved patio terrace that wraps round the rear of the home leading to the private dining courtyard, next to the kitchen. The lawn leads to the further raised terrace with feature pergola and timber framed shed.
