The Siskin is an impressive 2,106 sq ft four-bedroom detached home, combining generous room sizes with a superb family-focused layout and an upgraded kitchen specification.

From the substantial kitchen and separate family/dining room to the dedicated study, utility and spacious living room, this is a home where space has been provided exactly where family life needs it.

Upstairs are four excellent bedrooms, including a superb Master Bedroom with fitted wardrobe and private en-suite, while Bedroom Two also benefits from its own en-suite.

Outside, Plot 20 has two particularly compelling advantages: a desirable south-facing rear garden and a double garage with private driveway parking.

Add Silestone worktops, integrated appliances and an induction hob, and The Siskin offers an impressive combination of space, specification and practicality.

Best of all, you don't have to imagine it - Plot 20 is VIEWABLE NOW!

STEP INSIDE

The entrance hall provides an impressive introduction to this substantial home, with the staircase rising centrally to the first floor.

The ground-floor layout has been carefully designed to give different parts of family life their own space.

There's a large separate living room, a dedicated study, utility and cloakroom, while the kitchen flows through to an impressive family/dining room overlooking the garden.

It means The Siskin offers the sociability of open-plan living while retaining the separate rooms many families still want.

KITCHEN

5.700m x 3.500m | 18'9" x 11'6"

At approximately 18'9" x 11'6", the kitchen is a substantial room in its own right.

Generous cabinetry and worktop space combine with a large peninsula, creating a natural focal point and plenty of room for preparing food while still being part of family life.

Plot 20 also benefits from an impressive upgraded specification.

Silestone WORKTOPS

Silestone worktops are included in the kitchen, providing a premium and contemporary finish.

INTEGRATED APPLIANCES

Plot 20 also comes with integrated appliances, helping maintain the smart, streamlined appearance of this beautifully designed kitchen.

INDUCTION HOB

An induction hob is also included, adding another desirable feature to the kitchen specification.

The kitchen flows naturally into the adjoining family/dining area, creating an exceptional everyday living and entertaining space.

FAMILY/DINING ROOM

4.400m x 4.000m | 15'5" x 14'8"

The family/dining room is another of The Siskin's standout spaces.

At approximately 15'5" x 14'8", its generous proportions provide ample room for a substantial dining table together with additional seating or family furniture.

This isn't simply a dining room. It's somewhere that can become the everyday heart of the home - family meals, homework, coffee with friends or relaxed weekend breakfasts.

French doors provide a direct connection to the garden.

And on Plot 20, that's particularly appealing because the rear garden benefits from a desirable south-facing aspect.

SOUTH-FACING GARDEN

A major advantage of Plot 20 is its south-facing rear garden.

For buyers who enjoy spending time outside, entertaining, gardening or simply making the most of brighter summer days, garden orientation can be an important consideration.

French doors from the family/dining room create an excellent connection between the main family space and the garden, making it easy to take everyday living outside when the weather allows.

LIVING ROOM

4.550m x 4.800m | 14'11" x 15'9"

The separate living room is another generously proportioned space.

At approximately 14'11" x 15'9", there's plenty of room for substantial sofas and additional furniture.

A bay window adds character and natural light, while the room's separation from the kitchen and family areas creates somewhere genuinely peaceful to retreat to.

It's an excellent example of what makes The Siskin work so well: large sociable spaces without sacrificing separate rooms.

STUDY

3.350m x 2.777m | 11'0" x 9'1"

The dedicated study is a particularly useful addition.

Measuring approximately 11'0" x 9'1", this is a proper room rather than a token workspace.

There's room for a substantial desk, storage and additional furniture, making it ideal for buyers who regularly work from home.

Alternatively, it could become a playroom, hobby room or snug.

And because there's already a dedicated study downstairs, there's no need to sacrifice one of the four bedrooms to accommodate home working.

UTILITY ROOM

1.800m x 1.923m | 5'11" x 6'4"

The separate utility room provides valuable practical space away from the main kitchen.

Laundry and everyday household tasks can be kept out of the principal entertaining space, while the floorplan shows direct external access.

Plot 20 also benefits from Silestone worktops to the utility room, continuing the premium finish from the kitchen into this practical space.

CLOAKROOM

A separate ground-floor WC completes the accommodation on this level.

FIRST FLOOR

Upstairs, The Siskin continues to impress with four generously proportioned bedrooms, two en-suites, a family bathroom and extensive built-in storage.

It's a layout particularly well suited to larger families, guests or multi-generational living.

MASTER BEDROOM

3.700m x 4.900m | 12'2" x 16'1"

The Master Bedroom is a superb space extending to approximately 16'1" in length.

There's plenty of room for substantial bedroom furniture, while the floorplan shows an excellent amount of fitted wardrobe storage.

The Master Bedroom also benefits from its own private en-suite, creating a comfortable retreat within the home.

MASTER EN-SUITE

The private en-suite serves the Master Bedroom and adds to the excellent bathroom provision throughout The Siskin.

Together with the fitted wardrobe, it gives the Master Bedroom a genuine suite-like feel.

BEDROOM TWO

3.875m x 3.825m | 12'9" x 12'7"

Bedroom Two is another exceptionally good-sized double bedroom.

At approximately 12'9" x 12'7", it offers excellent proportions and also benefits from fitted storage.

Most importantly, Bedroom Two has its own private en-suite.

That makes it particularly appealing for an older child, teenager, guests or multi-generational living.

BEDROOM TWO EN-SUITE

A second en-suite is a valuable feature and significantly improves the practicality of a four-bedroom family home.

Together with the Master en-suite, family bathroom and ground-floor cloakroom, The Siskin offers excellent bathroom provision throughout.

BEDROOM THREE

3.547m x 3.600m | 11'8" x 11'10"

Bedroom Three is another generous double bedroom, measuring approximately 11'8" x 11'10".

The floorplan also shows fitted wardrobe storage, further maximising the usable floor area.

BEDROOM FOUR

3.250m x 3.325m | 10'8" x 10'11"

Even Bedroom Four offers impressive proportions.

At approximately 10'8" x 10'11", this is a genuinely useful fourth bedroom rather than a small box room.

It could comfortably accommodate a child or guest and provides excellent flexibility as family requirements change.

FAMILY BATHROOM

The family bathroom serves Bedrooms Three and Four and complements the two private en-suites.

The overall bathroom arrangement is particularly practical:

Master Bedroom en-suite

Bedroom Two en-suite

Family bathroom

Ground-floor cloakroom

For a busy family, that makes mornings considerably easier.

DOUBLE GARAGE & PRIVATE PARKING
A MAJOR ADVANTAGE OF PLOT 20

One of The Siskin's most significant external features is its double garage.

This is something that really sets Plot 20 apart.

A double garage provides considerably greater flexibility than a standard single garage - whether used for vehicles, bikes, tools, garden equipment, sports equipment, additional household storage or a combination of uses.

Together with private driveway parking, it gives buyers the kind of practical external space that's increasingly difficult to find.

When combined with the home's substantial 2,106 sq ft interior, the double garage reinforces the sense that The Siskin has been designed to provide space both inside and out.
