The Property Constructed during the late 1990's this well-maintained family house has buff-coloured brick-faced principal walls with contrasting red brick plinth and string courses under a pitched concrete tiled roof with a small gable to the front elevation. There are uPVC double-glazed windows and heating is by a gas central heating system. A long driveway provides excellent parking for several cars and leads to the semi-detached garage - built to complement the house with brick walls and block piers under a pitched concrete tiled roof.

The house stands extremely well at the end of the private shared driveway with attractive mature gardens to both front and rear together with a timber garden shed tucked away at the side.

The rooms have a contemporary feel, and the original separate dining room has been combined with the kitchen to create a superb fitted dining-kitchen with French doors onto the patio and garden.
