This open layout comfortably accommodates a dining table, sofa, and additional furnishings, creating a versatile and sociable heart of the home.

A stylish timber sliding door leads from the kitchen to a well-equipped utility room, offering additional floor and wall mounted units, worktop space, a sink with drainer, plumbing for a washing machine, and dual-aspect windows that allow natural light to stream in. A rear door opens directly from this space onto a charming patio area, perfect for morning coffee or alfresco dining.

Upstairs, the generous front-facing main bedroom enjoys abundant natural light and features mirrored wardrobes, ceiling downlights, laminate flooring, and excellent space for freestanding furniture. The second bedroom, overlooking the rear, is also well-proportioned and benefits from mirrored wardrobes, ceiling downlights, and laminate flooring.

The bathroom is beautifully designed, combining contemporary style with traditional charm. It includes a WC, vanity unit with inset sink, heated towel rail, and a bath with mains-fed overhead waterfall shower and glass screen.

Beyond this, a communal pathway leads to the property's private south-facing garden, which is located separately from the main house. This beautifully maintained outdoor space features a spacious lawn, chipped areas, a raised deck, and a tranquil, tree-lined backdrop, offering a peaceful and private escape.
