Situated within a highly sought-after and private cul-de-sac off Larches Road, this extended four-bedroom semi-detached home offers generous and flexible accommodation, making it an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking space, privacy and scope to personalise.

The double-aspect lounge enjoys windows to both the front and rear, complemented by wooden flooring and a feature fireplace incorporating a wood-burning stove.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units, granite work surfaces, an inset one-and-a-half bowl sink and drainer, gas cooker point, and plumbing and space for a freestanding fridge freezer.

A useful utility room provides further wall and base units, a stainless-steel sink and drainer, and plumbing and space for both a washing machine and tumble dryer. There is also a shower room with window to the side, fitted with a low-level WC, wash hand basin and mains-fed wall-mounted shower.

The ground floor also includes a bedroom with a window to the front, opening through to a wet room fitted with a low-level WC, wash hand basin and mains-fed wall-mounted shower, with fully tiled walls and flooring.

To the first floor, there are three further bedrooms. The main bedroom is particularly spacious and enjoys a double aspect with windows to the front and rear, together with fitted wardrobes. One of the remaining bedrooms also benefits from fitted cupboards. Completing the first floor is a family bathroom fitted with a low-level WC, wash hand basin and panelled bath with mains-fed wall-mounted shower over, with tiled walls and flooring.

Externally, the property enjoys good-sized rear gardens which are fully enclosed by established hedging, creating a pleasing degree of privacy. The rear garden includes a substantial lawned area and a patio ideal for outdoor seating. To the front, there is a small garden together with a driveway providing off-street parking and access to the front portion of the original garage, currently used for storage.
