Description - 4 Helmers Way is a very well-presented three-bedroom semi detached house, built in 2011, and offered to the market with no onward chain. The property has been well maintained by the current owner and is now being sold following a period as a successful rental property. The house has the benefit of a solar array on the roof which assists with energy consumption and provides a feed-in tariff payment.

The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of base and eye-level units beneath granite work surfaces, complemented by integrated appliances including a double electric oven with four-ring electric hob, full-size fridge and freezer, integrated dishwasher and a Hotpoint washing machine. The kitchen is large enough to accommodate a small dining table.

The spacious sitting room is carpeted and features a large under-stairs storage cupboard. A fireplace with surround and inset electric fire provides a focal point, while a window to the front and a pair of patio doors to the rear bring in plenty of natural light. The patio doors open into the conservatory, which is a valuable addition to the property, offering further living space and direct access through double patio doors to the rear courtyard garden.
