Moving through to the rear of the home, the impressive kitchen/dining room (6.93m x 3.35m / 22'7" x 11'0") forms the heart of the property. This stunning open plan space features sleek grey handleless cabinetry, a full range of wall and base units, stainless steel sink, double oven, induction hob, integrated dishwasher, and ample worktop space. A window to the rear with bespoke shutters brings in natural light, while recessed inset spotlights add a modern, clean finish.

Just off the kitchen is the practical utility room (2.31m x 1.41m / 7'7" x 4'8"), fitted with complementary wall and base units, a stainless-steel sink, and space for both a washing machine and tumble dryer-ideal for keeping household tasks neatly tucked away. A convenient ground floor WC is positioned off the hall.

Ascending the stairs to the first floor, the landing leads to three well proportioned bedrooms. The master bedroom sits to the front of the property and benefits from its own en suite, while bedroom two and bedroom three enjoy pleasant views and easy access to the modern family bathroom. All rooms continue the home's well appointed décor, offering a calm and contemporary feel.
 

STEP OUTSIDE Externally, the property includes a detached garage and driveway, offering excellent storage and parking options. The rear garden-accessed via the French doors from the dining area-provides a superb extension of the living space, ideal for relaxing, entertaining, or family enjoyment.
