Description
The property is immaculate throughout and offers spacious, well-planned accommodation, complemented by a recently fitted kitchen, two reception rooms, utility room, en-suite facilities and double garage. A real feature of the property is the beautifully maintained rear garden, which has been thoughtfully landscaped to provide a private and attractive outdoor space. The property's position is equally appealing, with open countryside views to the front and a greater sense of privacy and separation from neighbouring properties than is typically found within the development.
Accommodation
The property is approached via a shared driveway serving just two properties, providing a particularly private and secluded setting within the development. Tucked away in the corner, the house enjoys an unusually open position, with attractive countryside views to the front and a good degree of privacy from neighbouring properties. The immaculate presentation throughout is immediately apparent, with the current owners having clearly taken great care to maintain and enhance the property.
The front door opens into a spacious entrance hall with stairs rising to the first floor and doors leading to the principal ground floor rooms. The sitting room is a generous and welcoming reception room, centred around a working open fireplace which provides an attractive focal point. Windows to the front take advantage of the open outlook, whilst doors to the rear open directly onto the garden, creating a good connection between the house and outside space.
Also accessed from the entrance hall is a useful downstairs cloakroom and a particularly well-proportioned dining room. The dining room benefits from double doors opening onto the rear garden, making it an ideal space for both everyday family dining and entertaining.
The recently fitted kitchen is finished in a contemporary style, incorporating a range of fitted units, integrated appliances, marble-effect working surfaces and useful under-counter lighting. The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to provide both practical workspace and a modern finish, whilst a door leads through to the adjoining utility room.
The utility room is a particularly useful addition, offering a good range of storage, sink unit and further working space, together with a door providing direct access to the rear garden.
First Floor
Stairs rise from the entrance hall to the first floor landing, where there is a hatch providing access to the loft space and doors leading to all four bedrooms and the family bathroom.
Bedroom one is a particularly spacious double bedroom with windows to the front overlooking the open countryside. The room benefits from a stylish en-suite shower room, fitted with a large corner shower, WC and wash hand basin. There is also a useful airing cupboard housing the hot water cylinder.
Bedroom two is another well-proportioned double bedroom with windows overlooking the rear garden and benefits from a large double wardrobe, providing excellent storage.
Bedroom three is a further double bedroom with windows to the front and attractive countryside views, whilst bedroom four is a smaller double bedroom with windows overlooking the rear garden. The spacious family bathroom is fitted with a large corner bath, WC and pedestal wash hand basin.
Outside
The property's position is one of its most distinctive features. Set quietly into the corner of the development and approached via a driveway shared with just one other property, the house enjoys a degree of privacy and seclusion that is unusual for a development of this type. There is ample off-road parking to the front, together with additional gravel parking to the side of the attached double garage.
The double garage is fitted with twin metal up-and-over doors, with light and power connected, and a pedestrian door to the rear providing convenient access directly into the garden. The combination of the garage, driveway and additional parking provides excellent provision for vehicles and storage.
The rear garden is undoubtedly one of the property's key features. The current owners have invested considerable time and effort into creating a beautifully maintained, modern and manageable outdoor space which is both private and secure. The garden has been thoughtfully landscaped, with well-stocked and neatly maintained flower beds providing structure and colour, together with areas of well-kept lawn and a number of seating areas, creating plenty of opportunities for outdoor entertaining and relaxation.
The garden also benefits from external power points and water taps, together with useful garden sheds providing additional storage. Access is available to both sides of the property, allowing easy movement between the front and rear gardens and adding to the practicality of the outside space.
Overall, the combination of the immaculate presentation, generous and versatile accommodation, attractive countryside outlook, excellent parking and particularly well-maintained gardens makes this a distinctive home within the development. Its tucked-away corner position further enhances the feeling of privacy and individuality, whilst still providing all the practical benefits of a modern family home.
