A welcoming entrance hall has stairs rising to the first floor and useful understairs storage. A cloakroom is fitted with a WC and hand wash basin.

The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base units, complemented by a stainless steel one-and-a-half bowl sink positioned beneath a window overlooking the dining area. There is a fitted oven with gas hob, stainless steel extractor, integrated appliances, wine rack and breakfast bar. An attractive opening leads through to the dining room, which benefits from a glazed ceiling panel creating a bright and open feel. This is an extension completed by the current owners. Full-height glazing and double doors provide a lovely outlook and direct access onto the rear garden. 

The living room is positioned from the front to the rear of the property and enjoys plenty of natural light through two windows.

To the first floor are three bedrooms, comprising a principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room, a further double bedroom and a single bedroom/office.

A particular feature is the fully insulated self-contained annexe, providing excellent flexibility for a variety of uses. Double doors open directly onto the garden, while internally there is a double bedroom and separate shower room. The annexe could be ideal for a family member, visiting guests, older children, a home office or those requiring additional independent accommodation.

To the front, the property is approached via a pathway bordered by low hedging, with an attractive open area of grassland opposite, incorporating established shrubs, trees and pathways.  A driveway provides parking for two cars, with further parking available in front of the house.

The rear garden has been designed for ease of maintenance and outdoor enjoyment. A decked seating area immediately outside the dining room provides an ideal place for sitting and entertaining. The garden is enclosed by a feature brick wall and has borders to the edges, a central raised planter and a useful garden shed. The central part of the garden is laid to decorative stone, creating a low-maintenance outdoor space.
