As you enter through the front door, you are greeted by a bright and spacious entrance hall with plenty of room for coats and shoes, as well as stairs leading to the first floor. To the left of the hallway is bedroom four, which also makes an excellent office or study, while to the right is the main lounge area. The lounge is spacious and welcoming, flowing seamlessly into the open-plan kitchen and dining area — truly the heart of this family home. The kitchen is fitted with a great range of wall and base units, offering ample storage and workspace, along with built in appliances.

From the kitchen, you step into a large conservatory, a fantastic addition to the home that is both practical and inviting. This space benefits from underfloor heating and an air conditioning unit providing both hot and cold air, making it comfortable all year round. The conservatory is currently used as a family and dining room and offers direct access to the rear garden.

Downstairs, there is also a larger-than-average utility room with space for a fridge freezer and housing the central heating boiler. Off the utility room, there is an additional space with plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer — this room was previously a downstairs WC and could easily be converted back if desired. There is also an internal door giving access to the garage, which is equipped with power, lighting, and an up-and-over door.

A rear lobby leads to both the front and back of the property and also provides access to bedroom one. This bedroom is perfect for multi-generational living or for guests, as it offers its own private entrance to the garden and an en suite shower room complete with a WC and wash hand basin.

Upstairs, the landing provides access to the loft, which is boarded and fitted with a light and ladder, as well as an airing cupboard that houses the water tank. There are two generous bedrooms on this floor. Bedroom two features an excellent range of fitted wardrobes, bedside tables, and drawers, providing ample storage space. Bedroom three also includes fitted wardrobes and additional storage into the eaves, as well as a shower cubicle. The family bathroom completes the upstairs accommodation and is fitted with a bath, wash hand basin, and WC.

The garden is truly one of the standout features of this home. It is a fantastic size and provides a wonderful space for both adults and children to enjoy. There is a beautiful decked area adorned with vines — perfect for relaxing or entertaining guests — as well as a large shed for storage. Towards the rear of the garden, you’ll find mature apple, plum and pear trees, adding to the peaceful, private feel of the outdoor space.

To the front of the property, there is a spacious driveway providing parking for multiple vehicles and access to the garage.

This much-loved home offers space, comfort, and versatility, with the potential to further enhance or extend (subject to the usual planning permissions). Situated in a popular and sought-after location, it is ideal for a growing or multi-generational family looking for a property they can truly make their own.
