Accommodation Details - Ground Floor - The property is approached through a small entrance porch, opening into a beautifully presented front sitting room which immediately sets the tone for the rest of the house. This is a stylish and inviting reception space, with tall front-facing windows fitted with plantation-style shutters, a striking feature wall and an attractive period-style fireplace forming a natural focal point. From here, the accommodation flows through to an inner hallway, where the character of the house continues with a distinctive tiled floor, decorative arched detailing and access to the staircase rising to the upper floors. To the rear is the stunning fitted kitchen, which has been remodelled with a strong emphasis on both style and practicality. A comprehensive range of shaker-style cabinetry is finished in contrasting tones with copper-effect handles, complemented by marble-effect work surfaces, patterned splashback tiling and integrated appliances. The room is beautifully presented and makes excellent use of the available space, with plentiful storage and preparation areas. French doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating a lovely connection between the kitchen and outside space. Beyond is the dining room, another generous and extremely well-presented reception space. Finished with timber flooring and a bold contemporary colour palette, the room features a brick fireplace and offers ample space for a substantial dining table, making it equally suited to everyday family use and entertaining. Access is also available from this part of the house to the cellar, providing useful additional storage.

Upper Floors - From the inner hallway, the staircase rises to the first-floor landing, where there are two bedrooms together with the main family bathroom. Bedroom one is a spacious double room positioned to the front of the property with a large window providing good natural light and ample space for freestanding furniture, while bedroom two is a further well-proportioned room with a useful store close by. The family bathroom has been remodelled to a high standard and is fitted with contemporary tiling, a freestanding bath, modern sanitaryware, vanity storage and a feature radiator. A further staircase rises to the second floor, where two additional bedrooms provide flexible accommodation, with bedroom three offering a generous space with roof lights and useful eaves storage, and bedroom four also benefiting from a roof light together with its own en-suite shower room fitted with a shower enclosure, wash basin and WC.

Outside - The outside space is a real feature of the property and is particularly notable for the exceptional depth of the plot. Immediately beyond the house is an elevated decked terrace, providing an ideal area for outdoor dining, morning coffee or evening entertaining. Steps lead down into the long rear garden, which has been attractively landscaped with a combination of lawn, established planting, mature shrubs and trees, together with a paved pathway extending through the garden. The garden continues for a considerable distance, creating a wonderful sense of space and separation from the house, with further areas for seating and planting as it progresses towards the rear boundary.

At the far end of the plot is a detached garage, accessed from the rear and approached over a block-paved driveway, providing valuable secure parking and storage. Combined with the length and maturity of the garden, this is an unusually substantial outside arrangement for a property of this type and adds considerably to the overall appeal.
