Play your cards right…

It’s your move, and this four-bedroom extended family home could be the winning hand you’ve been waiting for! Set in a lovely location, there’s an impressive amount of space here for family life, with a fantastic extension giving you even more room to play with. Whether you’re upsizing, growing the family or simply looking for somewhere that offers plenty of choice, this home certainly has a few aces up its sleeve. Roll the dice, make your move and come take a look!

Step inside and let the games begin, with a lovely entrance hallway welcoming you into a ground floor where space really is the name of the game. To the right sits a spacious study/office, ideal for working from home, before moving through to the generous living room, complete with an electric fire and plenty of room for family film nights — or perhaps a fiercely competitive game of Monopoly! A handy W.C. with wash hand basin follows, before you reach the fantastic kitchen/diner, offering heaps of space with cream cabinetry, oak-style worktops and a grey granite sink, alongside an integrated four-burner gas hob, cooker hood and oven, plus space for a washer, dryer, dishwasher and further appliances. Continue into the separate dining room, another brilliant family space which loops you conveniently back around to the hallway. But there’s another card still to turn, as both the kitchen and dining room provide access into the extended living space. Here you’ll find a fantastic conservatory, perfect for watching the rain fall, soaking up the sunshine when it decides to make an appearance, or setting up the family board games. The rest of the extension adds two further open-plan areas, giving you a real wildcard to use however suits your family — think playroom, additional study, hobby space, games area or snug. Unique centre-hinged doors lead through to the main conservatory, where you can enjoy a lovely outlook over the garden, with French doors providing direct access outside. With this much versatility downstairs, there’s plenty of room for the whole family to grow without anyone having to miss a turn.

Head upstairs and you’ve hit the full house, with an impressive four double bedrooms on offer. The master bedroom provides fantastic space alongside double built-in wardrobes with double doors, as well as its own en-suite, giving the grown-ups a handy space of their own. Bedroom two is another generous double with a built-in wardrobe and double doors, while bedroom three follows suit with yet another built-in wardrobe, also finished with double doors. Bedroom four is a comfortable double too, meaning there’s no short straw when it comes to choosing bedrooms here! Completing the floor is the family shower room, featuring a rainfall shower alongside a handheld shower attachment and a vanity wash basin with useful storage beneath — practical, stylish and ready to handle the morning rush.

And the final move takes us outside, where the rear garden offers different spaces to enjoy throughout the year. There’s a patio area ready for the barbecue, outdoor dining set and summer get-togethers, alongside a lawn and pebbled area giving children, pets and keen gardeners room to play. Beside the conservatory is additional space for a shed or outdoor storage, keeping all those garden essentials tucked away. To the side of the property you’ll also find useful off-road parking spaces, another practical box ticked. Owned solar panels up the game here, another useful addition to this gorgeous family home. With four double bedrooms, an abundance of downstairs living space and an extension packed with possibilities, the cards are certainly stacked in your favour here — so make your move before someone else calls FULL HOUSE!
