Description

This exceptional four-bedroom detached home offers a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented property that has been thoughtfully extended and fully modernised to an outstanding standard by the current owners. Boasting a generous double garage, ample off-road parking, and a stylishly renovated outbuilding, the home is ideally suited to modern family living or those seeking flexible space for home working or leisure.

Set behind a tastefully landscaped front garden, wide stone steps lead up to the main entrance, offering an elegant first impression. Inside, the property is immaculately finished throughout, showcasing high-end fixtures and fittings in every room. The current owners have significantly increased the living accommodation with an impressive double-storey extension, transforming the layout to create a home of both style and substance.

At the heart of the property lies a stunning modern high-gloss kitchen/diner, designed with both practicality and aesthetics in mind. The space features a fitted breakfast bar, a comprehensive selection of integrated appliances, and quality fittings, complemented by contemporary display and mood lighting. A separate utility area provides convenient additional storage and workspace, keeping the main kitchen area clear and functional for entertaining and daily use.

The dual-aspect lounge is both inviting and stylish, having been tastefully updated to include a fitted wood-burning stove set beneath an attractive oak mantle, adding warmth and character. From here, double doors open into a bright conservatory, seamlessly connecting the main living area with the rear garden and offering an ideal space for relaxing or entertaining throughout the seasons.

Upstairs, the highlight is the substantial master bedroom suite, a superb addition that includes a spacious walk-in dressing area and a luxurious contemporary ensuite bathroom. This beautifully appointed space features a roll-top bath, his and hers sinks, and a large walk-in double shower equipped with two rainfall heads and built-in shelving—providing a spa-like retreat within the home.

There are two further well-proportioned double bedrooms, both finished to a high standard, and a generous fourth bedroom currently utilised as a home office, catering to the needs of modern living. A stylish and modernised family bathroom serves the additional bedrooms, completing the upper floor.

Externally, the property continues to impress. A side-accessed driveway leads to a double garage with two electric roll-up doors, while a secure coded gate opens into a thoughtfully landscaped rear garden. This outdoor space has been designed for both ease and enjoyment, comprising modern paved areas for dining, an artificial lawn, and a decked seating space ideal for entertaining or relaxing.

To the rear of the garden lies a converted former garage, now serving as a versatile outbuilding. With power, lighting, a vaulted ceiling, and double doors opening to the garden, it makes an ideal home gym, office, or creative studio.

This superb home blends contemporary design, luxurious finishes, and highly functional spaces, all presented in immaculate condition. It is perfectly suited to buyers seeking a turnkey property with style, space, and versatility in a desirable residential setting.
