A gated entrance provides convenient access through to the rear garden.

Stepping inside, the welcoming Entrance Hall leads to the Living Room and staircase rising to the first floor. The Living Room is a particularly attractive, light and airy space with a window overlooking the front and a wonderfully calm and relaxing feel.

Beyond lies the impressive Kitchen / Diner, which truly forms the hub of the home. This generous, light-filled space features upgraded LVT flooring, recessed kitchen downlights and 3 stylish pendant lights above the dining area. French doors open directly onto the beautifully landscaped south-facing rear garden, creating an attractive connection between the indoor and outdoor living spaces. The modern kitchen offers an excellent range of cupboards and work surfaces together with a built-in 4-ring electric hob and extractor, space and plumbing for a washer / dryer and dishwasher and space for a fridge / freezer. A useful understairs storage cupboard and Cloakroom complete the accommodation on this level.

The beautifully landscaped, south-facing rear garden is a particular highlight of the property, having been extensively transformed by the current owner to create a stylish outdoor space ideal for relaxing and entertaining. High-quality porcelain paving extends around the immaculate level lawn, providing generous areas for outdoor dining, lounging and sunbathing. Raised planting beds feature carefully selected ornamental planting, including pleached trees positioned to provide attractive screening and enhanced privacy as they mature. A magnificent, approximately 60-year-old specimen olive tree creates an impressive focal point, complemented by further established olive and bay trees. The garden has also been thoughtfully equipped with professionally installed, mains-powered exterior lighting, illuminating the planting and landscaped features to create a beautiful atmosphere after dark. Additional practical improvements include external electrical sockets, an outside tap and a 6' x 6' composite garden shed complete with its own electrical supply and internal lighting. A selection of the established olive and bay trees will remain as part of the sale, including the approximately 60-year-old specimen olive tree, with the exact inclusions to be confirmed.

On the first floor, the spacious Main Bedroom features a built-in wardrobe and its own 3-piece En-suite Shower Room. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are both well-proportioned rooms overlooking the rear garden, while the beautifully presented Family Bathroom comprises a bath with mains shower over, a close-coupled WC and wash hand basin.

All in all, this is an exceptional home presented in true turnkey condition.
