Upon entering, you are welcomed into a spacious and elegant reception hall, which immediately impresses with its beautiful ash staircase and contemporary glass balustrade. From here, there is access to a guest WC, the formal dining room, and the integrated double garage, which features an electric roller shutter and a dedicated utility area with a butler sink and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer.
Descending a few steps leads you to a striking open-plan kitchen, dining and family room – the heart of the home. This expansive space boasts sleek high-gloss wall and base units, a large central island with breakfast bar, and integrated appliances including an oven, combination oven/grill/steamer, hob, and dishwasher. Two sets of glazed doors open onto the rear garden, flooding the room with natural light and providing seamless indoor-outdoor living.
On the first of the upper levels, the stylish living room offers a relaxed retreat with a feature log burner and a Juliette balcony overlooking the garden. A home office is conveniently located off this room, ideal for remote working or study. Further upstairs, you will find two generously sized bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room. The luxurious main bathroom is equipped with a walk-in shower, bath, WC, and vanity basin with drawers for storage.
Continuing up, a spacious double bedroom occupies its own floor, and at the top of the house, a bedroom suite features a dressing room and access to a well-appointed shower room with a walk-in enclosure.
Externally, the property benefits from a block-paved driveway and integral garage. The rear garden wraps around to the side, with paved seating areas ideal for outdoor entertaining, complemented by a neatly maintained lawn and mature hedging and trees, offering a high degree of privacy and seclusion.
