The main reception room centres on a feature fireplace and is filled with natural light from a walk-in bay window with built-in seating. A second reception room, ideal for dining or additional living space, features dual-aspect windows and its own fireplace.

A standout feature is the modern kitchen, fitted with a range of units and complementary worktops, a built-in double oven, four-ring gas hob with extractor, 1.5 sink and drainer, integrated dishwasher, concealed combi boiler and space for a fridge freezer.

A contemporary downstairs shower room completes the ground floor layout.

Moving upstairs

The split-level first floor begins with stairs leading to the family bathroom, featuring a bath with shower over, wash basin, WC, complementary tiling, and a heated towel rail.

Making an Offer

“We are required by law to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all those selling or buying a property. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks and any ongoing monitoring are carried out correctly, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or had an offer accepted on a property you wish to buy. The cost of these checks is £60 (incl. VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us publishing your property (in the case of a vendor) or issuing a memorandum of sale (in the case of a buyer), directly to Lifetime Legal, and is non-refundable. We will receive some of the fee taken by Lifetime Legal to compensate for its role in the provision of these checks.”
