Internally - Positioned to the front, the sitting room provides a comfortable and stylish retreat, ideal for quieter evenings or as a family snug, with large windows drawing in excellent natural light.
Moving through the hallway, the home opens into the true heart of the property — an expansive open-plan kitchen and family space, creating a sociable hub where family and guests naturally gather. The open-plan arrangement flows effortlessly into a relaxed seating area, making this a superb everyday living and entertaining space. French doors open directly from the kitchen area onto the rear garden, creating an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living.
Adjacent to the lounge lies a well-proportioned formal dining room, providing an elegant setting for more formal occasions while still linking conveniently with the main living areas.
A practical utility room sits just off the kitchen, keeping laundry and additional storage neatly tucked away from the main entertaining spaces. A convenient ground-floor WC further enhances everyday practicality.
To the side of the property, an excellent additional space currently arranged as a home gym offers great versatility and could equally serve as a home office or studio. This area connects directly to the integrated double garage, which has been finished and organised to an exceptionally high standard.
Upstairs, the spacious landing leads to six well-proportioned double bedrooms, offering exceptional flexibility for growing families or those requiring guest accommodation and home-working space.
The principal bedroom suite enjoys excellent proportions and benefits from fitted storage along with a stylish en-suite shower room, creating a comfortable private retreat.
A second bedroom also enjoys en-suite facilities, ideal for guests or older children seeking independence. The remaining bedrooms are all generously sized and served by a contemporary family bathroom finished with modern fittings.
An additional upper-level bedroom, accessed via its own staircase, provides a superb flexible space — ideal as a teenager’s suite, guest accommodation, or a private work or hobby room.
Kitchen - The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of sleek, modern cabinetry providing excellent storage, all complemented by granite worktops which offer both durability and a stylish high-end finish. A large central island creates a natural gathering point, incorporating a breakfast bar ideal for informal dining, morning coffee or socialising while cooking.
Integrated appliances are seamlessly incorporated and include a five-burner gas hob set within the island with a contemporary extractor above, alongside integrated ovens, microwave and dishwasher, ensuring both practicality and clean visual lines throughout the space. Extensive preparation areas and clever storage solutions make the kitchen equally suited to busy family life or entertaining on a larger scale.
There is a relaxed family seating area, ensuring this space functions as a true hub of the home where cooking, dining and everyday living naturally come together.
The adjoining utility room offers further worktop space and storage cupboards with under-counter spaces for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

A standout feature of the garden is the fully fitted outdoor kitchen including a BBQ and wood fired pizza oven, creating an exceptional space for alfresco cooking and social occasions, allowing hosts to remain at the centre of gatherings while enjoying the outdoor setting.
