Description
The heart of the home unfolds into a striking open-plan L-shaped living space-kitchen, dining, and lounge seamlessly intertwined. It's a room designed not just for living, but for gathering. A log-burning stove anchors the seating area, casting warmth and atmosphere, while the deep grey kitchen brings a bold, modern edge. Crafted with solid oak worktops, integrated appliances and an abundance of storage, it balances practicality with clean-lined sophistication. The breakfast bar peninsula island forms a natural hub, perfect for casual dining and conversation.
But it's the connection to the next space that truly elevates this home.
Flowing effortlessly from the living dining kitchen is a breathtaking glazed extension-a contemporary living room with a vaulted ceiling and expansive glass roof. Light pours in from every angle, shifting with the seasons and blurring the boundary between inside and out. French doors open directly onto the terrace, inviting the garden into everyday life, while a second wood-burning stove ensures this space remains just as inviting in the colder months. A truly special living space.
All three bedrooms are well-proportioned rooms, and benefit from fitted or built-in wardrobes, providing excellent storage. The family bathroom has been tastefully updated and is well appointed, featuring a WC and a contemporary floating vanity unit with two deep drawers and a large square wash hand basin with mixer tap. There is also an oversized glazed shower cubicle with panelled walls, fitted with an electric shower including a rainfall head and separate handheld attachment, along with a tall ladder-style radiator.
Externally, the property is set back from the road behind an expansive stone-chipped driveway, providing ample off-road parking. Wrought iron gates give access to a detached garage (please note access width restrictions due to the oil tank).
From the initial patio area, a pathway leads alongside the garage and through a picket fence into the main garden. Here, you'll find an extensive block-paved seating area with a timber pergola and covered roof, creating a shaded outdoor retreat. Adjacent is a versatile garden building currently used as a gym with sauna.
Beyond this, the lawned garden is bordered by railway sleeper edging and beautifully stocked with mature plants, flowers, and shrubs, offering a high degree of privacy. A stepping stone pathway leads to a charming summer house at the far end of the garden. This delightful space features dual-aspect windows, double French doors, and a sheltered veranda. Inside, there is a spacious living area ideal for home working or leisure use, complete with a characterful log-burning stove-making it a truly versatile, year-round retreat.
