Enjoying a great connection with the kitchen, the DINING AREA is a bright, sociable space with easy access to the garden via French doors. The dining area in turn is open to the LIVING AREA which features a decorative alcove with oak shelf and tiled hearth, accent wall, TV aerial point and a rear window which has been lowered to better the garden view.

FIRST FLOOR

LANDING The landing affords a feature wallpapered wall, access via a recently replaced loft ladder to the fully insulated loft space which also houses the combination gas boiler (approx. 8 years old). The carpet has been recently refitted and continues into the bedrooms. Contemporary white panelled doors access the two double bedrooms, a folding door accesses the shower room, and a doorway the dressing room/bedroom three.

MASTER BEDROOM Serene and inviting you will quite simply want to stay in bed and snuggle! The woodwork and walls are painted white and bounce light around this beautifully presented double bedroom.

BEDROOM TWO A light and airy, south-facing double bedroom with built-in alcove shelves ideal for displaying decorative items or family photographs. The rear-facing window offers a great view of the garden.

DRESSING ROOM/BEDROOM THREE Located across the landing from the master bedroom, this versatile room lends itself to a bedroom or in this case a dressing room incorporating a walk-in wardrobe and a dedicated space for doing your hair and makeup, illuminated by natural light from the side window. (NB although the door from the landing has been removed, the owners have retained the door so it could be reinstated if desired)

SHOWER ROOM Retreat, unwind and find sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The sophisticated shower room enjoys a taupe vanity basin unit with matt black frame and towel rail, toilet and fully tiled walk-in shower enclosure with electric shower and ‘rain’ shower head. Further comprising a matt black heated towel rail, extractor fan and built-in shelving. (NB part of the shower enclosure ceiling is angled to fit the sloping roof)

OUTSIDE

To the front of the property is a smart block-paved driveway which provides off-street parking and is complemented by attractive raised beds and planted borders. A new garage door accesses a useful STORE (part of the former garage). There is also a wall light and a weatherproof socket on the front wall of the property.

The show-stopping, south-facing rear garden has been lovingly landscaped and nurtured by the present owners; a visually appealing sensory delight! Private and peaceful, with the soothing background trickle of the water feature, the paved patio invites you to kick back, relax and enjoy the stunning planting, including a Salix Flamingo willow, Japanese maple trees and fragrant lilac bush. The fondly named “Garden Hideaway” shed provides useful storage and has a neighbouring paved patio enjoying an entirely different view of the garden. Enclosed by timber fencing the garden further benefits from an outside water tap, and gated pedestrian access to the front of the property.
