Upon entering, you’ll find a bright and inviting entrance hallway. A staircase leads you to the first floor, while the hallway also grants access to the downstairs living spaces.

To the rear, the impressive open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area is the heart of the home, designed to offer a perfect setting for family life and entertaining. The room is centred around a chimney breast and features bi-fold doors that open onto the garden, blending indoor and outdoor living seamlessly.

The kitchen is well-equipped with a comprehensive range of wall-mounted and floor-standing units, complemented by work surfaces, a tiled splashback, and an inset sink. It boasts a gas hob with an extractor fan, as well as space for a washing machine and dishwasher. A contrasting wood-fitted raised breakfast bar adds to the functionality and appeal of the space.

The cosy sitting area, with its central multi-fuel log burner, is the perfect retreat, offering warmth and a relaxing atmosphere, while still enjoying open views over the garden.

From the entrance hallway, you’ll find three well-proportioned bedrooms and the family bathroom. The first bedroom, located centrally within the property, is a spacious double with ample room for furniture and a window offering a side aspect.

The second bedroom, situated at the front, also provides a comfortable space, while the third, currently used as a home office, overlooks the front of the property.
