Description
The property is entered via a welcoming entrance hall, which immediately sets the tone with a sense of space and practicality. From here there is access to a cloakroom, a useful storage cupboard, and doors leading through to the main living areas. The well-appointed kitchen is complemented by an adjoining utility room and enjoys a pleasant outlook to the rear. A door from the kitchen leads into the conservatory, which overlooks the west-facing garden and provides an excellent additional reception space, ideal for relaxing or entertaining throughout the year.
Also accessed from the kitchen is a dual-aspect dining room, offering ample space for family meals and formal occasions alike. This room flows seamlessly through to the bay-fronted living room positioned at the front of the property, creating a sociable and well-connected ground floor layout while still allowing each space to retain its own character.
Stairs rise to the first floor, where three well-proportioned bedrooms are located, all benefitting from built-in storage. The principal bedroom enjoys the advantage of an en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a family bathroom. Completing this floor is an impressive additional room featuring a sauna and shower facilities, offering a unique and luxurious addition that could equally suit wellness use or spa-style retreat.
The second floor provides further excellent accommodation, with a large landing area, two additional bedrooms, and extensive storage throughout, including access into the eaves. This level is ideal for older children, guests, or those seeking space for home working or hobbies.
Externally, the property benefits from driveway parking to the front, along with an integral garage. The impressive west-facing rear garden has been designed for both enjoyment and ease of maintenance, being mainly laid to patio and decking — perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining. To the side of the conservatory, a door provides access to a shower room, with a further door leading directly into the garage, enhancing the practicality of the layout.
