Description
The ground floor has been arranged to provide a good balance of open, sociable space and separate rooms. The entrance hall leads to a dedicated study, ideal for working from home, and a generous sitting room with herringbone flooring and French doors opening onto the rear garden. Glazed double doors connect the sitting room to the kitchen/dining room, allowing the two spaces to be used together or independently.
The kitchen/dining room extends to over 27 ft and has been refitted with white gloss cabinetry, contrasting granite worktops and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances, including double Neff ovens, an induction hob, dishwasher and double fridge/feezer. There is ample storage and preparation space, while the dining area comfortably accommodates a family-sized table. French doors open directly onto the garden, providing a useful connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. A ground-floor cloakroom completes the accommodation.
On the first floor, the landing provides access to four bedrooms, a family bathroom and a useful built-in storage cupboard. The principal bedroom is a generously proportioned double room with the benefit of its own en-suite shower room and a fitted wardrobe. Bedroom two is another comfortable double bedroom, also benefiting from a fitted wardrobe and an en-suite shower room. The remaining bedrooms offer flexibility for children, guests or additional home working, with bedroom four also featuring a built-in wardrobe. A separate family bathroom has been refitted with contemporary tiling, a Duravit bath and overhead shower.
The south-westerly facing rear garden has been landscaped with paved seating areas, established planting and a mixture of shrubs and small trees, creating an attractive outdoor space with relatively modest maintenance requirements. To the side, a driveway provides off-road parking and leads to the double-length garage, measuring approximately 31 ft 10 in, offering considerable space for parking, storage or hobbies.
