Description
The ground floor benefits from a bright, welcoming entrance hall, a delightful front sitting room with built-in shelves and cupboards and a large, dual aspect living room with French doors onto the rear garden. A third reception room at the rear of the property, benefits from fitted wardrobes and an adjacent W/C and as such, serves equally well as a study or third bedroom.
The well-appointed, recently fitted, spacious kitchen, boasts attractive quartz worktops, a range of units, high quality integrated appliances and a lovely view of the secluded rear garden. The adjoining, triple aspect dining room has an external door to the side of the property.
Upstairs, two large, dual aspect double bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes, await. Both bedrooms have wash basins, indicating the potential for the creation of en-suite shower rooms. Extensive eaves storage is accessible throughout the upstairs rooms. The bright, lofty landing presents a linen cupboard and a separate airing cupboard. A modern shower room is located adjacent to a sizeable W/C with wash basin.
Externally, a garage is located to the side of the house and a large paved garden to the front, is surrounded by an extensive gravelled driveway, which provides parking for multiple vehicles. There is access all around the property, from front to back. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with a generous patio and a shed for storage. This beautifully secluded garden, from where birdsong can be enjoyed, is remarkably peaceful.
