Description

A beautifully presented four bed detached home in The Parks, Shotton Colliery, this rare three storey property combines generous living space, modern finishes, and exceptional parking with a peaceful, private rear aspect. Approached by a front garden laid to lawn, the home enjoys a substantial driveway for 4+ vehicles, which continues past the side of the house to additional rear parking and the double detached garage. The garage features an electric roller door, power, and lighting, offering excellent storage or workshop potential.


Stepping inside, an entrance vestibule opens into an impressive 15ft entrance hall, where a solid oak staircase and bannister set the tone for the quality found throughout. From here, there is access to the downstairs W/C and a versatile second reception room ideal as a study or home office. The heart of the home is the expansive 20ft kitchen/dining room, fitted with stylish Howdens wall and base units, complementing work surfaces, and space for a full range of appliances. This sociable space flows effortlessly into both the living room and the sun room, creating an open, connected layout perfect for family life and entertaining.


The 10ft sun room, filled with natural light from two Velux windows, features patio doors opening directly onto the rear garden. The living room, positioned to the front elevation, offers a warm and inviting atmosphere with its contemporary media wall, complete with an electric fire featuring multi coloured flame settings, decorative stones, and a heating function. A separate utility room sits just off the kitchen and includes a UPVC door to the side elevation for added convenience.


The first floor landing, illuminated by a side window and finished with matching oak staircase and bannister, leads to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The master bedroom is a standout feature, offering a private dressing room and a modern en suite with a double shower. Bedrooms three and four are well proportioned, while the family bathroom provides a three piece suite with a triple shower enclosure.


The second floor landing includes a useful storage cupboard and leads to the impressive bedroom two, a spacious retreat with fitted wardrobes, additional storage, two Velux windows, and its own en suite bathroom complete with bath and overhead shower. This top floor suite is ideal for guests, older children, or anyone seeking a private, self contained space.


Outside, the rear garden is laid to lawn with a block paved patio area, offering a peaceful setting that is not overlooked. The combination of generous outdoor space, extensive parking, and a detached double garage makes this home particularly appealing to families and those needing extra storage or hobby space.


Finished with solid oak doors throughout and located close to local amenities, this exceptional property offers space, style, and flexibility across three well designed floors. Homes of this calibre are rare to the market, making it an outstanding opportunity for buyers seeking a substantial family home in a desirable location.
