Extending to just over 1,100 sq ft across the ground and first floors, with the added benefit of a useful loft room, there is plenty of space to work, relax and entertain. At the heart of the home, the kitchen/diner provides a welcoming space for everyday meals and catching up with family, complete with a gas hob for keen cooks. The spacious lounge, measuring an impressive 21'4" x 10'11", is filled with natural light and opens directly onto the garden through French doors, creating a smooth connection between indoor and outdoor living during the warmer months. Practicality has been carefully considered, with a dedicated office providing the perfect environment for home working, alongside a separate utility room and a convenient ground floor cloakroom. Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms offer comfortable accommodation for families and guests alike. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en suite shower room, while the second bedroom features built-in wardrobes for tidy storage. A well-appointed family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms and is complemented by a large storage cupboard, helping to keep everyday life organised. Adding further flexibility, the loft room presents a valuable bonus space that could be used as a playroom, cosy snug, hobby room or simply additional storage, depending on your needs. With gas central heating, double glazed windows and a versatile layout designed to suit a variety of lifestyles, this detached home offers comfortable and adaptable living both now and for years to come. Prospective purchasers should note that there are visible signs of damp and areas of mould within the property, and refurbishment works are likely to be required.

A gently sloping approach leads to the front door, while gated side access offers convenient passage to the rear garden. The enclosed rear garden provides a wonderful blank canvas for outdoor enjoyment, whether that be summer entertaining, children's play or simply relaxing in the fresh air. Predominantly laid to lawn, the garden is complemented by a block-paved terrace adjoining the house, creating an ideal spot for al fresco dining, morning coffee or weekend barbecues with family and friends.
