Why buy this home?

Located opposite a park on the small and exclusive Bovis development in Newton Leys, this amazing house is in superb condition.

Thanks to its bay window and un-overlooked frontage, the kitchen/diner is a bright and inviting space. Finished with stylish white shaker doors and charcoal worktops, the kitchen is beautifully presented. The current owners have added extra worktop space with additional storage, creating a useful breakfast bar or a spot for under-counter appliances. Integrated appliances include a fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine, along with a five-ring gas hob and eye-level electric double oven.

The lounge/diner is a generous space, offering ample room for a large dining table alongside a corner sofa or a more traditional two-piece suite. Double doors open into the conservatory, which is filled with natural light and provides a lovely spot to unwind at the end of a long week.

Outside, the garden has been laid with artificial turf, keeping maintenance to a minimum, while still providing a patio area ideal for outdoor seating. There is also access from the garden to the driveway via a gate, adding convenience and versatility.

One of the main attractions is the converted garage. Currently used as an additional kitchen, this highly versatile space could just as easily be used as a gym, playroom, home office or for a variety of other purposes.

The first floor comprises three bedrooms and a family bathroom. Both the second and third bedrooms are impressively sized, measuring approximately 141 sq ft and 133 sq ft respectively—dimensions you would typically expect from master bedrooms in many new builds. The fourth bedroom is a practical single, currently used by the owners as an office and storage space.

The bathroom showcases one of Bovis Homes' signature touches, featuring a luxurious deep bath with side taps, deep window sills perfect for candles, and a glass shower screen, combining style and functionality beautifully.

The top floor is dedicated entirely to the master suite, offering a private retreat for parents seeking a quiet space away from the rest of the household. Two dormer windows and a skylight flood the room with natural light, creating a bright and welcoming atmosphere. The suite is generously proportioned, allowing for a variety of layouts to suit your needs.

Built-in wardrobes provide ample storage, with additional space in the eaves for standalone chests of drawers. There is also potential to create a study or dressing area if desired. The ensuite mirrors the luxury of the family bathroom, featuring a double shower cubicle elegantly lined from floor to ceiling with monochrome tiles.

Parking is provided by a garage and driveway.
