Meticulously styled and maintained by the current owners, the property provides expansive accommodation arranged over three floors, making it ideal for today’s growing family.

From the moment you step inside, the welcoming entrance hall sets the tone. Generously proportioned, with a feature fireplace and character detailing, it offers just a glimpse of the quality that flows throughout the entire home.

To the right, a stylish yet cosy living room is bathed in natural light from a large bay window to the front aspect. Finished in neutral tones, it also boasts a wood-burning stove, creating the perfect retreat for family evenings in the cooler months. Adjacent, a practical and well-designed cloakroom provides excellent convenience for guests and family alike.

Bi-fold doors span the dining area, opening onto a porcelain-tiled patio that seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living—perfect for entertaining in the summer. Beyond the kitchen, a separate utility room provides additional storage and space for appliances.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts four generously sized bedrooms, each beautifully presented, and served by a luxurious four-piece family bathroom. From the landing, a staircase rises to the second floor, where a versatile open space offers potential as a study area or home office. Two further rooms can be found, including a spacious double overlooking the rear garden and boasting wonderful views, this floor is complemented by a stylish and modern shower room.

Externally, the property enjoys off-road parking to the front, with side access leading to the rear garden. The rear is a true haven, designed for both relaxation and entertaining. A sleek porcelain patio spans the back of the property, providing the perfect spot for al fresco dining, while the lawn, bordered by mature hedges, shrubs, and trees, ensures privacy and a peaceful outlook.
