Thistledown, Carlton Colville
Step into this detached corner-plot home where bright, well-kept interiors and thoughtful design create a calm, welcoming feel.
A glazed porch with tiled flooring makes for a tidy entrance space before opening into a carpeted hallway that connects each of the main rooms. The layout flows easily from here into a spacious kitchen, fitted with cream shaker-style wall and base units, tiled splashbacks, and wood-effect work surfaces. A stainless-steel sink sits beneath a wide window overlooking the garden, while there is space for freestanding appliances such as a cooker and washing machine. The room’s generous proportions allow for casual dining, making it a practical and inviting everyday space.
Moving through, the lounge offers a comfortable setting filled with natural light from the large front window. A modern wall-mounted electric fireplace adds a stylish focal point, while neutral décor and soft carpeting enhance the sense of warmth.
Three bedrooms sit off the main hall, two of which are doubles. One enjoys sliding doors that open directly into the conservatory, drawing in natural light and offering a peaceful outlook. The conservatory itself is tiled underfoot and surrounded by full-height glazing, creating a relaxing space that connects beautifully to the garden through sliding doors. The newly fitted shower room continues the home’s fresh presentation, featuring a walk-in enclosure with a glass screen, a pedestal wash basin, a low-level WC, aqua wall panels, and a chrome heated towel rail.
Outside, the landscaped rear garden offers a private and attractive setting for both relaxation and entertaining. Paved seating areas provide ideal spots for outdoor dining, while the neatly kept lawn is edged with established shrubs and seasonal planting. A versatile outbuilding offers excellent storage or potential as a small workshop, complemented by additional space to the side of the home for bins or garden equipment.
The property’s corner position allows for a generous frontage, where a private driveway provides ample off-road parking for up to six vehicles and leads to a detached garage with power and lighting. A neatly maintained front garden adds to the kerb appeal, framing this well-cared-for home with greenery and giving a lasting first impression.
Additionally, the property benefits from double glazing throughout as well as a brand new boiler, offering both comfort and energy efficiency for the new owners.
