The Property - A welcoming entrance hall sets the tone, leading to a selection of versatile reception spaces. To the front, the sitting room enjoys a bay window and a calm atmosphere, while a separate snug offers an ideal family room or children's playroom. A further study provides an excellent home-working space.
To the rear, the home opens dramatically into a superb kitchen, dining and family room extending across the width of the property. Finished with sleek, contemporary cabinetry, integrated appliances and an impressive central island, the space is flooded with natural light from roof lanterns above and full-width bi-fold doors overlooking the garden. Carefully zoned for cooking, dining and relaxing, it creates an effortless connection between inside and out, making it equally suited to everyday family life and entertaining. A separate utility room keeps practical elements discreetly tucked away, with direct access to the outside.
Upstairs, four generously proportioned bedrooms offer comfortable accommodation. The principal bedroom benefits from a stylish en-suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom. Each room is presented in a modern, neutral palette, allowing buyers to move straight in.
The Outside - The property enjoys an attractive frontage with a block-paved driveway providing generous off-road parking alongside a detached garage. An EV charging point has been installed as well as a full exterior CCTV system.
To the rear, the enclosed garden has been designed with entertaining in mind. A broad paved terrace sits immediately outside the bi-fold doors, creating a seamless extension of the living space during warmer months, before giving way to a level lawn bordered by mature fencing. A timber outbuilding offers useful storage or workshop potential, while the garage provides further storage.
