A warm welcome

Enter into the bright and welcoming entrance hall which leads to the sitting room, downstairs WC kitchen/breakfast area, utility room and out onto the patio and garden . Stylish Amtico wooden floors flow throughout the ground floor of the house, showcasing its stylish finish and continuity perfectly.

The sitting room with triple aspect windows is just the place for family and relaxing time. Snuggle up with a nice book to the left side of the room, where views overlooking the Close provide a sense of calm. There is plenty of room for seating, a versatile space, large enough to be sectioned into two areas, part living area, part snug, play area or perhaps office space?

Freshen up in the downstairs WC on the right of the hallway, a generous sized room with obscure glass window and room for furniture storage.

Leading back out to the hallway past the stairs you will find an understairs storage cupboard, ideal for stowing away shoes, coats and larger items.

The heart of the home

Light, open, and modern, with a host of white gloss cupboards offering an abundance of storage and more of those wonderful Amtice wooden floors flow throughout. Natural light floods through double aspect windows, with direct access to the patio area through French doors for al fresco dining. There is room for a table to the far end, with views into the garden, making this space ideal for family living. Built to a high standard with grey speckled roll top surfaces, electric oven and hob, space for an American style fridge and dishwasher. (These can be negotiated with the owner)

The utility room adds further practicality to the space, with a further range of white gloss cupboards and grey speckled worktops, with space for a washing machine. Originally designed to include a sink, but altered by the current owners, however the plumbing is in place if this needs to be converted back. Side door access through to the driveway, which leads to a side gate and into the rear garden.

And so to bed…

Take the carpeted stairs to the first floor to find four excellent sized bedrooms, the master with ensuite, a further storage cupboard and a well-appointed family bathroom.

Directly ahead upon reaching the landing you will find the family bathroom, which is well designed, ready for any busy morning routines. The white panelled bath with shower overhead and part tiled white tiling beautifully contrast with the dark flooring, adding a touch of modern minimalism to this generously sized bathroom.

Across the landing sanctuary awaits in the sublime master suite, which is an impressive sized room with alcove for a large wardrobe and views overlooking the open green area to the side. Wake up rested before refreshing in the master shower ensuite, where polished white tiles add to the brightness, contrasted once again by the dark flooring underfoot.

At the end of the landing is bedroom 4, with dual aspect windows and a conveniently placed alcove to fit a large wardrobe, without intruding on the bedroom space.
