The property benefits from gas central heating and uPVC double glazing. Externally, the property is approached via a tarmac driveway offering ample off-road parking, with further access to a detached single garage fitted with an electric up-and-over door, as well as a useful carport. One of the standout features of this home is its gardens. Both the front and rear outdoor spaces are of a generous size, offering well-maintained lawns, mature shrubs, and potential for outdoor entertaining areas.

Accommodation

Upon entering the property, you are welcomed by a generously sized entrance porch—ideal for storing coats, shoes, and other outdoor belongings. This leads into a spacious central hallway, which provides access to all principal rooms, creating a well-organized and flowing layout.

The lounge is a bright and well-proportioned space, featuring a charming gas fireplace and large double sliding doors that serve as a striking focal point, while also allowing natural light to flood the room.

The kitchen is well-appointed, with a uPVC double-glazed window to the front aspect overlooking the garden, as well as a second window to the side aspect, allowing for excellent natural light. It features twin bowl sinks inset into laminate worktops, with part-tiled walls, and a range of matching base units, drawers, and wall-mounted cupboards. Additional features include plumbing for a dishwasher, space for an upright fridge/freezer, an inset four-ring gas hob with extractor hood above, and an integrated double electric oven. The room also benefits from a radiator, a telephone point, space for a dining table and chairs, and a timber-panelled ceiling.

Centrally located, the formal dining room is both versatile and inviting—perfect for entertaining guests or enjoying family meals. This room could also serve as a cosy snug or even be reconfigured as the main living space, allowing the current lounge to be transformed into a fourth double bedroom or luxurious master suite, if desired.

The property offers three spacious double bedrooms, each filled with natural light and enjoying delightful views over the beautifully maintained gardens. These rooms offer excellent flexibility for family living, guest accommodation, or working from home.

External Features

To the front of the property lies a spacious tarmac driveway, offering generous off-road parking for multiple vehicles.

A wrought iron side gate offers convenient access to the rear garden, while external lighting enhances both safety and aesthetics.

The front garden is attractively landscaped, featuring a large level lawn bordered by mature hedging and timber fencing for privacy. Stone-chipped beds planted with ornamental shrubs and seasonal flowers add colour and visual interest. A raised flower bed filled with mature shrubs and small trees adds depth and texture to the space. A decorative pond forms a lovely focal point, and an outside tap offers practical convenience.

The rear garden is equally impressive in both size and design, thoughtfully landscaped and enclosed by mature hedging and timber fencing to create a private, tranquil setting. Immediately to the rear of the property is a paved patio area—ideal for al fresco dining or relaxing—with direct access to Bedroom Two via uPVC double-glazed sliding patio doors.
