The accommodation at Number 27 is arranged over one-level with reception rooms at the rear of the home benefitting from an outlook over the garden. The wood floor covering in the reception hall extends into the kitchen and adjoining living areas creating a sense of cohesion and providing modern practicality. A front aspect bay window enhances the illumination which floods into the living room with a second window affording views to the rear. With decorative brickwork, the fireplace provides an attractive focal point in this spacious room which has an open aperture linking to the adjoining dining room. Glazed bi-fold afford a seamless transition from the dining room to the terrace outside offering a convivial setting for entertaining family and friends.

An impressive kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with sleek, contemporary cabinetry, with stone work surfaces, integrated appliances and an island unit with breakfast bar. A further length of bi-folds allows a vista along the length of the garden and when opened extends the inside to the outside setting. Ancillary space is provided by an adjacent utility room which offers additional units for storage and a hide-away for domestic appliances, with an external door for access options.

The bedroom quarters are situated in the south-easterly wing of the home, along with a well-appointed family bathroom. The principal room has a wall of wardrobe storage and enjoys the benefit of a modern en suite shower room. A timber garden outbuilding with glazed bi-folding doors provides a quality space with various uses including a home office, a studio or a gym.

Full planning permission was granted in September 2021 (21/00599/FUL) for a full first floor featuring four additional bedrooms and a ground floor rear extension. This planning has now lapsed and would need to be re-submitted.

Planning: Prospective purchasers are advised that they should make their own enquiries of the local planning authority.

Evergreen hedging at the front boundary provides a degree of privacy to the property with timber five-bar gates marking the access onto a length of gravelled driveway which also leads to the detached double garage. A paved pathway follows the edge of the house, leading to the entrance doorway and to either side of the property where picket gates gives access to the rear garden. Well-maintained, with attractive planting and landscape design, the garden at the rear offers a delightful outdoor sanctuary. A tiered paved terrace adjoins the back of the house offering opportunities for al fresco dining and relaxation, with steps leading down to an expanse of lawn, framed by planted borders. Stone-filled gabions create retaining walls to accommodate the slight incline to the plot and there are mature shrubs and specimen trees set within the grassed area.
