The Property

Step inside and the tone is set straight away. This is a home that has been carefully updated, with a clean, modern feel that runs consistently throughout. The open-plan lounge and dining space creates a natural flow, with light moving easily from front to back. A feature inglenook fireplace with an electric stove anchors the living area, offering a focal point that makes the room feel comfortable and inviting without overpowering the space.

To the rear, the kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to make the most of the layout. Shaker-style units are paired with warm worktops and a quartz sink, while integrated appliances keep the finish streamlined. A breakfast bar tucked neatly beneath the stairs adds a practical spot for everyday dining or working from home. Just beyond, a useful utility area provides space for laundry and houses the boiler, keeping the main kitchen area uncluttered. The bathroom sits at the back of the property and has been finished with a modern walk-in shower and full aqua boarding, giving it a fresh, low-maintenance feel.

Upstairs, both bedrooms offer more space than you might expect. The main bedroom spans the width of the house, giving flexibility for different layouts, while the second bedroom is also a genuine double. Built-in storage over the stairs is a welcome addition, making day-to-day living that bit easier. Outside, the enclosed rear yard provides a private, low-maintenance space that works well for sitting out or simply enjoying a bit of fresh air.
