An impressive detached four bedroom substantial family home, tucked away within a private and select development, with double garage and magnificent gardens amounting to approximately 0.34 of an acre.

Built in 1985 of warm reconstituted stone elevations under a tiled roof, 6 Manor Close enjoys an enviable location set within a small attractive development of similar style homes, providing a peaceful and secluded setting. This impressive home offers incredible living spaces, all maintained to a high standard by the current owners. The gardens are an absolute delight and will appeal to garden enthusiasts and equally a growing family, and are undoubtedly what sets this property apart from others of its kind. Internally this home feels very individual and upon entering the property you cannot fail to be impressed by a particularly spacious hall with attractive staircase rising to a beautiful galleried landing flooded with natural light. The proportions of accommodation throughout the property are exceptional, with most principle rooms enjoying wonderful views over the garden. The sitting room is considerably substantial and has a beautiful natural stone fireplace with Jetmaster open fire to its centre, and links seamlessly through to the conservatory which benefits from both central and underfloor heating enabling use throughout the seasons. There is a generous dining room with mock fireplace and outlook overlooking the garden, a super reception room which would also make an ideal study or games room. The kitchen/breakfast room has a bright dual aspect and has been tastefully modernised in recent years. There is an extensive range of wall and base cupboards as well as drawers which are enhanced with light granite work surfaces over and integrated appliances include a Neff double electric oven and warming drawer, an electric induction hob with extractor hood over, integrated fridge and a dishwasher. Additionally there is a central island unit and a separate utility room which has space for a range of white goods, very generous storage and access to the integral garage (water softener) and the garden.
On the first floor a stylish galleried landing provides a great work space if required, excellent storage cupboards and links the four double bedrooms, which all have fitted wardrobes. The master bedroom has extensive fitted wardrobes and a contemporary ensuite shower room which is fully tiled with matching wall and floor tiles and a large walk in shower cubicle, wc, basin and heated towel rail. The remaining bedrooms are served by a family bathroom which has both a bath, a separate shower and heated towel rail.
