Why buy this home?

Because it’s the perfect family home in every sense. Set within a peaceful and modern development beside the Grand Union Canal, this property offers space, style, and a lifestyle that families will love. The development itself is only around three years old and provides a safe, friendly environment surrounded by scenic canal-side walks and open green areas. This home is offered to the market with a complete onward chain, meaning you can move straight in and start enjoying it right away.

As you step through the front door, you’re welcomed by a bright and spacious entrance hall with two useful storage cupboards and a cloakroom/WC. From here, you can access the main reception room, a generous dual-aspect space with a bay window to the front and French doors opening onto the rear patio, allowing natural light to fill the room.

Also leading from the hallway is a second reception room that works perfectly as a snug or playroom. This opens through to the modern kitchen, which features ample cupboard space, integrated appliances, and a gas hob. The kitchen connects seamlessly to the dining area, creating a lovely open-plan family space with French doors opening out to the rear garden. There is also a separate utility room with extra storage and access to the garden.

Upstairs, you’ll find four double bedrooms. The principal bedroom includes a dressing room and an en suite shower room, while the second bedroom also benefits from fitted wardrobes and its own en suite. The remaining two double bedrooms are served by a stylish four-piece family bathroom. The loft has been boarded, providing excellent additional storage.

Outside, the home enjoys a generous, low-maintenance rear garden that is ideal for family life and entertaining. The double carport provides parking for up to four cars and includes an EV charging point.

Residents contribute approximately £500 per year towards the upkeep of the communal areas and carports, keeping the development beautifully maintained throughout the year. The property also benefits from having solar panels, further enhancing its sustainability and helping to reduce running costs. It has an impressive Energy Performance Certificate rating of B, showing its excellent energy efficiency.
