This beautifully presented semi-detached home has been thoughtfully enhanced by the current owners, who have clearly invested time, care, and creativity into making it their own. From the moment you arrive, the property offers a striking first impression, with an attractive exterior that hints at the level of detail and finish found throughout.

Inside, a welcoming entrance hall sets the tone, complemented by a ground floor WC and useful understair storage. The home opens into a stunning open-plan living space designed with both style and practicality in mind. The kitchen and dining area flow into the bay-fronted sitting room, where an incredible media wall creates a real focal point, pairing deep, rich tones with contrasting neutral panelling.

A built-in fish tank adds a unique and personal touch, further enhancing the individuality of the space. To the rear, an extended reception area provides flexibility for dining or additional living, perfect for entertaining or family life.

The attention to detail continues, with matching mosaic-style flooring in this space flowing from inside the home out into the garden, creating a seamless connection between spaces.

Neutral-toned internal doors and carefully selected monochrome fixtures replace more traditional finishes, offering a subtle yet impactful contrast to the usual white, giving the home a more considered and elevated feel.

Upstairs, a striking monochrome staircase with stair rods and carpeting creates a cohesive design feature that carries through as you ascend. The layout has been adapted from four bedrooms to three, prioritising space and comfort.

The principal suite is particularly impressive, featuring a dedicated dressing area, formerly the fourth bedroom, which could easily be reinstated if desired. The en-suite is finished to a high standard, with marble-effect surfaces, textured detailing and gold accents, tying the design together into a space that feels both luxurious and thoughtfully curated.

The remaining bedrooms are well-proportioned and served by a stylish family bathroom.

In addition, the vendors had planned a loft conversion to further enhance the home, and have already taken significant steps towards this. Drawings, plans, and building control have all been arranged, with the structure prepared accordingly, including trusses positioned to support the future works. Should the next owner wish to proceed, this offers an exciting opportunity to create a stunning principal suite, complete with built-in wardrobes and an en-suite, adding further value and flexibility to an already impressive home.

Externally, the versatility of the home continues with a fully converted detached annexe, offering a self-contained living space complete with its own kitchen and shower room. This makes it ideal for guests, independent living, or a professional home studio.

The rear garden has been designed with ease of maintenance in mind, featuring a smart patio layout that mirrors the interior finishes, while a brickweave driveway provides off-road parking. An additional parcel of private land further enhances the outdoor offering.
