Whether hosting friends around the oversized island, enjoying family meals or relaxing in front of the bespoke media wall, every detail has been carefully considered. The beautifully crafted luxury Howdens shaker kitchen is complemented by Quartz worktops, twin wine coolers, with further integrated appliances, boiling water tap and an abundance of cleverly designed storage, while layered LED lighting creates a sophisticated atmosphere from day to night.

The front lounge provides a cosy contrast, offering a more intimate retreat with its bay window featuring sun shutters, fitted fire and classical décor.

Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms are filled with natural light including a principal suite with en-suite facilities. The family bathroom has been finished with a boutique-hotel feel, featuring contemporary fittings, floating cabinetry and integrated illuminated storage.
