Situated on the ever-desirable Rainsborowe Road, this beautifully extended and substantially improved four-bedroom, two-bathroom semi-detached family home offers an exceptional standard of living across three meticulously designed floors. Thoughtfully enhanced by the current owners, this property boasts a seamless blend of modern elegance and practicality.

A spacious entrance porch leads into an elegant hallway, where stylish herringbone flooring, inset storage, and contemporary wall-mounted lighting create a welcoming atmosphere. A ground floor cloakroom, housing the boiler, adds practicality to this well-designed space.

To the front of the property, the large reception room exudes warmth and charm, featuring a bay window that floods the space with natural light and a striking feature fireplace, making it an ideal setting for relaxation.

Towards the rear, the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining, and family area serves as the heart of the home. Designed to offer both style and function, this space showcases sleek high-gloss cabinetry, luxurious stone work surfaces, and a central island with breakfast bar seating. Integrated appliances ensure a streamlined aesthetic, while underfloor heating adds an extra level of comfort. A striking sky lantern enhances the sense of space and light, and large bi-folding doors seamlessly connect the interior with the beautifully landscaped rear garden, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor flow ideal for entertaining.

A well-proportioned landing leads to three spacious double bedrooms, each offering a bright and airy feel with ample space for furniture. These versatile rooms are perfect for family living, guest accommodation, or home office use. The recently refitted family bathroom has been finished to a high standard, featuring a full-size bath with an overhead shower, a modern WC, a stylish wash basin, and a contemporary vertical radiator, ensuring comfort and convenience for all.

A well-executed loft conversion has transformed the top floor into a stunning principal bedroom suite.
