Description
Offered to the market chain free, the property is arranged across two generous floors and provides flexible, well-balanced accommodation ideal for modern family living, with significant potential to reconfigure, extend or further enhance.
The ground floor is accessed via a welcoming porch leading into a spacious central hallway. The principal lounge is an impressive room, featuring a character fireplace, dual side windows and two sets of sliding doors opening directly onto the rear garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. A further family room, also enjoying sliding doors to the garden, provides an ideal secondary reception space for relaxed entertaining or everyday family use.
To the front of the property is a versatile office which may alternatively be used as a fifth bedroom, alongside a well-proportioned fourth bedroom. The fitted kitchen is positioned to the front and side aspect and is complete with integrated appliances including a gas hob, oven, dishwasher and fridge freezer, with direct access to the garden. Completing the ground floor is a fully tiled family bathroom with both bath and separate shower facilities.
The first floor offers a spacious principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes, a dedicated dressing area and a fully tiled en-suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms overlook the rear garden, complemented by a family bathroom and a separate WC. There is excellent potential to extend the first floor or add an additional storey, subject to planning permission, allowing purchasers to significantly increase the overall footprint and value of the home.
Externally, the property continues to impress. The private rear garden has been designed for low-maintenance living and features a large paved patio, artificial lawn areas, established planting to the borders and attractive outdoor lighting. A substantial outbuilding with power and plumbing provides ideal space for a home office, gym or studio.
To the front, electric gates open onto a spacious block-paved driveway offering parking for multiple vehicles, enhanced by raised flower beds, a separate pedestrian gate and side access to the rear garden — all contributing to a strong sense of privacy and arrival.
A superb opportunity to acquire a gated family home with genuine development potential in a prime and well-connected location.
