Accommodation
The property is entered via a welcoming hallway fitted with stylish and easy-to-maintain LVT flooring, with stairs rising to the first floor on the right-hand side and useful understairs storage. Positioned to the front is a charming sitting room featuring an attractive bay window and a contemporary wood-burning stove, creating a cosy yet elegant focal point. To the rear of the property is a stunning, newly refitted kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units, as well as integrated appliances including a dishwasher, washing machine, eye-level electric double oven, four-ring gas hob, full-height fridge and separate full-height freezer. A cupboard houses the boiler, while a deceptively spacious pantry cupboard provides excellent additional storage. A door from the kitchen leads out onto a newly replaced decking area, while the adjoining conservatory — recently improved with a solid-style roof — offers a bright and versatile reception space, ideal for entertaining or relaxing, with double doors opening onto the rear garden. The former garage has been converted to create a highly versatile additional room, currently used as a bedroom, but equally suited as a playroom, home office or family room. A cloakroom with WC and wash hand basin completes the ground floor.
Upstairs, the landing provides access to three well-proportioned bedrooms and includes a handy airing cupboard. Bedrooms two and three are positioned to the rear and front respectively, offering a double and a single room, both served by a modern family bathroom comprising a WC, wash hand basin, panelled bath with shower over, and part-tiled walls. The principal bedroom is located at the rear of the property, enjoying a pleasant outlook over the garden, and benefits from fitted wardrobes and a stylish en-suite shower room with WC, wash hand basin, enclosed shower cubicle and chrome heated towel rail.
Outside & parking
To the front, a tarmac driveway provides off-road parking for up to three vehicles, while a gated side access leads through to the rear garden.
The rear garden has been thoughtfully arranged, with a newly laid decking area adjoining the property and benefitting from a covered section — ideal for outdoor dining. A couple of small steps lead down to a lawned garden, complemented by a large concrete base suitable for a storage shed, along with a slightly raised shingled seating area that enjoys the sun. The garden is enclosed by secure fencing, creating a safe and secure environment for children and pets, and enjoys a favourable south-easterly aspect, allowing it to capture sunlight for much of the day.
