Exceptional Light, Modern Detailing & Private Gardens

Set in a peaceful residential enclave, this beautifully refurbished detached home offers a rare blend of timeless character and contemporary living—perfect for those seeking style, comfort and privacy in the heart of superb location.

Step inside and you'll immediately notice the abundance of natural light. Cleverly placed skylights, bay windows and glazed doors ensure every space feels bright and uplifting all year round. The layout flows seamlessly, with oak chevron flooring running throughout the living spaces, creating a warm and cohesive feel.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen is a true showstopper. Finished with deep navy cabinetry, crisp white worktops and exposed brickwork, it’s a space designed for both cooking and entertaining. Quality integrated appliances, open shelving, and a breakfast bar add practicality and style. Large bi-fold doors open directly onto a sun-soaked patio, making indoor-outdoor living effortless.

The living room is equally inviting, with a feature fireplace, a calming neutral palette and thoughtful details that make it feel instantly welcoming. Elsewhere, a dedicated study area provides a quiet spot for work or creativity.

Three double bedrooms can also be found on the ground floor all of which have been tastefully decorated throughout and are serviced by a plush family shower room.

Upstairs, the principal suite feels like a boutique retreat. Vaulted ceilings, bespoke storage, and a spa-inspired bathroom with a freestanding tub, walk-in shower, and twin skylights create a luxurious yet relaxed vibe.

Outdoors, the gardens are designed for both relaxation and entertaining. Mature planting, a generous lawn, and a private patio offer distinct spaces for al fresco dining, gardening, or simply unwinding in the sun. There is no overlooking, ensuring a true sense of seclusion, while the exterior’s gable end and large windows add to the property’s kerb appeal.

Every detail has been considered for easy, enjoyable living—from the total refurbishment of heating and electrics to the choice of high-end paint and fixtures. The home sits among friendly neighbours in a quiet, sought-after location, offering the perfect balance of privacy and community whilst also holding potential to enlarge subject to the relevant consents.
