Description

Situated in the sought after village of Thornley, East Lea is an attractive three bedroom semi detached family home occupying a generous plot with open field views to the rear.

The accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hall featuring a useful storage cupboard and staircase rising to the first floor landing. The bright and spacious living room is positioned to the front elevation and enjoys a bay window which allows plenty of natural light to flood the room. The living room flows seamlessly into the dining area, creating an excellent space for both everyday family living and entertaining guests. The dining room overlooks the rear garden and benefits from patio doors which open directly onto the outdoor space, bringing the outside in during the warmer months.


The kitchen is located to the rear of the property and offers direct access to the side elevation through a uPVC door, providing convenience for day-to-day living and access to the garden.


To the first floor, the landing provides access to the loft space and leads to three well-proportioned bedrooms. There are two generous double bedrooms and a comfortable single bedroom, with the accommodation further enhanced by fitted wardrobes and a useful storage cupboard, providing excellent storage solutions.


Externally, the rear garden is a particular highlight of the property. Generous in size and enjoying an open aspect overlooking neighbouring fields, the garden is predominantly laid to lawn with paved seating areas, mature planted borders and a garden shed. A rear gate provides direct access onto the fields beyond, creating a wonderful setting for those who enjoy countryside walks and outdoor living.


Combining spacious accommodation, excellent outdoor space, practical storage and delightful open views to the rear, this charming home offers an excellent opportunity to purchase a family property in a desirable village location.
