***Guide Price £425,000 - £450,000***

Set within an attractive courtyard development, this well presented three bedroom semi detached house offers characterful accommodation that is both practical and stylish, with the majority of living space arranged on the ground floor and a further bedroom positioned above.

At the heart of the home is a generous open plan sitting room and kitchen, creating a welcoming space for everyday living and entertaining. The sitting area is full of charm, featuring a vaulted ceiling to one end, exposed character details and a newly installed log burner that forms a cosy focal point. From the sitting room bi-fold doors open directly onto the private garden that then leads onward to the communal garden, allowing plenty of natural light and a seamless connection to the outdoors.

The kitchen has been comprehensively upgraded with a high quality integrated Magnet kitchen, finished to a modern standard and well equipped with a double oven and ample storage, making it both functional and visually appealing.

The ground floor also hosts two well proportioned double bedrooms, both benefiting from high ceilings and a bright, airy feel. The property now benefits from a newly added contemporary wet room. This impressive addition features underfloor heating, a heated towel rail and a smart demisting mirror, all finished to a sleek, modern specification.

A spiral staircase leads you to the third double bedroom that provides a private retreat, ideal for guests, older children or use as a home office.

Outside, the property enjoys two distinct garden areas: a private courtyard to the front and a good sized southwest facing rear garden that offers space for outdoor dining, gardening or relaxation. There is also a single garage, providing useful storage or parking, alongside one allocated parking space and ample visitor parking within the development.

The home has been thoughtfully improved and maintained in good decorative order, offering a unique blend of character, modern upgrades and versatile living in a desirable courtyard setting.
