Description

The property makes a lovely first impression, approached via off-road parking for two vehicles alongside a low-maintenance front garden bordered by a hawthorn hedge and a beautiful cherry blossom tree.

The driveway extends to an attached single garage, providing secure parking for a small vehicle or useful storage for bikes and outdoor equipment. The boiler is also housed within the garage. A secure side passage leads conveniently through to the rear garden.

Stepping inside, the property opens into a glazed porch which leads through to a welcoming entrance hallway laid with engineered wood flooring, continuing seamlessly through into the lounge and kitchen.

The main reception room is a spacious dual-aspect lounge, thoughtfully extended to the front and rear to create three distinct living areas. To the front is a dedicated office space, ideal for home working. The central area forms a cosy lounge with an open fire creating a warm focal point, while the rear of the room provides a formal dining area with views over and access out to the rear garden, perfect for entertaining and socialising during the summer months.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of storage cupboards and a complementary two-sided worktop incorporating an electric hob and stainless steel sink. Integrated appliances include an electric oven/grill, fridge and freezer. A particularly useful walk-in pantry and additional cupboard provide additional storage, while glazed doors lead directly out to the rear garden.

Completing the ground floor are two useful storage cupboards and a modern shower room, fitted with a walk-in shower enclosure with wall-mounted shower, WC and wash hand basin.

Upstairs, the landing leads to each of the three bedrooms and a contemporary bathroom. There is also a built-in cupboard housing the hot water cylinder and a hatch up to the loft. 

The principal bedroom overlooks the rear garden and is a spacious double, featuring built-in wardrobes, drawers, and a vanity area with an integrated wash basin. The second bedroom also enjoys rear garden views and a built-in wardrobe; currently arranged as a twin, it could easily be used as a double. The third bedroom is positioned at the front of the property and features a bay window overlooking Stonecross Road, with ample space for freestanding wardrobes.

The family bathroom comprises a contemporary three-piece suite, including a bath with wall-mounted shower, WC, and wash hand basin.

Outside, the property boasts a generous rear garden, featuring a large paved patio that extends across the back and down the side, providing an ideal space for alfresco dining and entertaining. The side patio includes a bespoke sheltered seating area with louvred roofing and integrated LED lighting, perfect for relaxing in comfort. A spacious lawn is complemented by established planted borders, including a striking laburnum, creating a private and attractive outdoor space.
