The ground floor is nothing short of breathtaking. The jewel of the home is the impressive kitchen, an entertainer’s dream. With its large island centre-piece, this space is ideal for both casual breakfasts and lively evening gatherings. The bi-folding doors that span the rear elevation, invite the outside in, lead to a stunning garden where every detail has been considered—starting with the bespoke patio, designed for sun-soaked afternoons and al fresco dining. The adjoining family area is perfectly sized for generous sofas, inviting everyone to come together for relaxed evenings or weekends spent unwinding.
Just off the kitchen lies a functional yet discreet utility room, ensuring that clutter stays out of sight, so your kitchen always feels effortlessly polished.

Elsewhere on the ground floor, the expansive lounge area offers a versatile space to relax and unwind, effortlessly bringing family together or creating the perfect setting for entertaining. The separate dining room—complete with its showpiece fireplace—creates a more formal setting for special occasions, while a dedicated study provides a quiet retreat for work or reading. Striking Herringbone wooden flooring adds a timeless elegance, flowing seamlessly from the hallway into the dining space, making a bold statement as soon as you step through the front entrance porch. A W.C. completes the ground floor, ensuring convenience for all.
Upstairs, the home continues to impress. Four generously sized bedrooms offer both comfort and storage, with two featuring fitted wardrobes. The family bathroom is equally impressive, with a unique square-shaped P-style bath that adds a contemporary twist to an everyday essential.
Step outside, and the possibilities for family living and entertaining continue. The rear garden has been designed with both relaxation and recreation in mind. The newly laid raised patio is perfect for barbecues and outdoor dining, while the well-kept lawn provides ample space for children to play. A pathway leads to the rear of the garden, where you’ll find not one but two sheds and a summer house that has been equipped with power, lighting, and climate-controlled air conditioning for both heating and cooling. Whether you envision it as a games room, home office, or even a personal gym, the summer house adds yet another layer of flexibility to this already outstanding property.
