The charming pergola draped in beautiful mature wisteria adds a real touch of romance and “Instagram-worthy” character — a dream setting for summer BBQs, outdoor dining, or simply unwinding under the flowers with a coffee in hand.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with four well-proportioned bedrooms offering flexibility for growing families, guest accommodation, or working from home. The home further benefits from gas central heating throughout, while the loft is easily accessible via a pull-down ladder and has been fitted with rafters and insulation, providing excellent additional storage space.
