Four-Bedroom Detached Home with Open-Plan Kitchen/Dining Room in Marston Moretaine

Tucked away on a quiet private cul-de-sac, this well-presented four-bedroom detached home offers over 1,850 sq ft of comfortable family living, thoughtfully improved by the current owners throughout their seven years here. Bright, sociable, and finished with real care, the house combines generous open-plan space at its heart with quieter rooms for retreat, all set behind a substantial private driveway.

Ground Floor

To the front of the house sits the study, a well-proportioned room with a bay window that has served the current owners as a quiet and peaceful home office, well away from the main living areas. A ground floor WC completes this end of the house. Across the hall, the sitting room is a generous reception space extending to over 22 ft into the bay. A full wall of fitted cabinetry with an integrated media unit and open display shelving gives the room genuine character, whilst a bespoke window seat built into the bay creates a lovely spot to sit with a book. Deep, considered decoration lends the space a warm and restful feel. At the heart of the home sits the kitchen/dining room, an impressive open-plan space extending to over 27 ft and spanning the rear of the house. Handleless gloss cabinetry and a substantial central island with breakfast bar seating create a contemporary finish, with integrated appliances including two Bosch ovens, plate warmers, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine, alongside a Quooker boiling water tap. Large polished tiling flows underfoot, whilst wide bi-fold doors open the whole room onto the garden, making this an excellent space for family life and entertaining alike. A separate utility room keeps noisier appliances tucked away, with useful under-stairs storage completing this level. Underfloor heating adds comfort throughout the ground floor.

First Floor

Upstairs are four bedrooms, an en-suite, and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a spacious double extending to over 17 ft, benefitting from built-in wardrobes and its own en-suite shower room, creating a comfortable and private retreat. Bedroom two is a notably generous room at over 18 ft, offering excellent flexibility for guests or older children, whilst bedroom three is a comfortable double at over 12 ft. Bedroom four provides good proportions and versatility as a child's room, nursery, or additional workspace. Serving these rooms is a modern family shower room, finished with full-height tiling, a walk-in rainfall shower, and a wall-hung vanity unit. A boarded loft offers valuable additional storage.

Outdoor Living

The north-west facing rear garden has been landscaped by the current owners to create a low- maintenance and highly usable outdoor space. A wide paved patio runs along the rear of the house, ideal for barbecues and dining, opening onto artificial lawn that stays neat and green year-round.

A standout addition is the pergola with festoon lighting at the top of the garden, sheltering a seating area that has proven a favourite spot for entertaining and relaxing on summer evenings, when the garden catches the last of the sun. Mature hedging and climbing planting soften the boundaries and add privacy, whilst a substantial timber shed provides secure storage.To the front, a block-paved driveway laid by the current owners offers generous off-street parking for several vehicles, an unusually good provision for a home of this type. A Ring camera and light add peace of mind.
