Step Inside

On entering Wyddial Croft, you are welcomed by an impressive entrance hallway featuring a full-height vaulted ceiling and striking chandelier, creating a wonderful first impression.  To the left sits the generous family lounge, centred around a charming wood-burning stove set within a brick fireplace. Flooded with natural light from the floor-to-ceiling arched window and patio doors, this elegant yet cosy room is perfect for both relaxing evenings and entertaining guests.  Further accommodation on the ground floor includes a comfortable TV snug, a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and garden views, and a well-appointed bathroom with separate bath and shower, ideal for guests or multi-generational living.

Having purchased the property as a 2 bed bungalow back in 2004, the current owners have extended at the rear in 2004 and then again to the front in 2008.  This enabled them to increase the size of the house as their family grew.  The result is a superb open-plan kitchen and dining room, truly the heart of the home and a fantastic social space for modern family life. The kitchen features a central island with seating, range cooker, ample cabinetry and integrated appliances, complemented by a separate utility room with a handy WC, additional storage and external access. The dining and seating area enjoys lovely garden views, with French doors opening onto the patio for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining.

Upstairs, the property offers three further bedrooms, all beautifully presented with soft neutral décor and fitted storage. A recently refitted family bathroom serves the first floor, while the principal bedroom enjoys garden views, fitted wardrobes and access to a stylish en suite bathroom with fitted bath. Additional eaves storage further enhances the practicality of this spacious family home.

Step Outside

Wyddial Croft is approached via a smart tarmac driveway with a striking mature tree at its centre, while established hedging provides excellent privacy from the road. The driveway offers parking for up to seven vehicles and leads to a substantial double garage with extensive loft storage, creating an impressive and highly practical space.  To the left of the driveway, double gates and a pedestrian gate provide access to a discreet area housing useful garden sheds and a dedicated log store, offering excellent practicality for outdoor living and storage.  Gated side access leads through to the beautifully maintained rear garden, where a purpose-built home office has been created to the rear of the garage, providing an ideal work-from-home environment with ample storage and space for two desks.

The generous patio terrace forms a superb outdoor entertaining area, centred around an elegant pergola and surrounded by mature planting and hedgerows. Thoughtfully designed lighting creates a wonderful atmosphere for al fresco dining and evening gatherings.  Further into the garden, a fully equipped outdoor bar provides a standout lifestyle feature, complete with seating areas, drinks fridges, ceiling heaters and integrated WiFi speakers — the perfect setting for entertaining family and friends throughout the year.  The remainder of the garden is laid mainly to level lawn, bordered by mature hedging and trees that provide a high degree of privacy across the approximately 0.7-acre plot, creating a wonderful space for both family life and outdoor entertaining.
