[about your new home]

Pulling up outside, you'll notice straight away that this home has a welcoming, traditional charm, blended with plenty of practicality. The semi-detached position gives it presence, with a handsome frontage, bay windows, and a neat boundary wall framing the front garden. The driveway sets the tone for the ease of living here, providing the convenience of parking.

Stepping through the front door, you're welcomed into a bright hallway with access to both the lounge and the heart of the home: The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area. At the front of the property, the lounge space retains its cosy and traditional feel. The chimney breast, enhanced with a rustic wooden mantel, acts as a natural focal point, giving the lounge a welcoming, traditional feel.

Moving through to the rear of the house, you'll be further embraced by the transformation into a contemporary, open-plan space designed for modern family living. The sense of light here is remarkable, with skylights above and patio doors that open onto the garden, flooding the area with natural brightness and creating a real sense of connection with the outdoors.

The kitchen has been designed to combine sleek aesthetics with everyday functionality. A run of soft neutral cabinetry complemented by modern worktops ensure you have plenty of space for storing your essentials and for meal preparation.

The kitchen's thoughtful layout includes a breakfast bar, ideal for casual dining, homework sessions, or simply chatting with your guests while preparing meals. Flowing seamlessly from the kitchen is the dining area, set beneath skylights and alongside expansive windows. This space has an uplifting, airy quality, perfectly suited to family meals or larger gatherings with friends. There's plenty of room for a dining table and chairs, making it an ideal spot for entertaining. Patio doors lead straight out onto the garden, creating that all-important indoor-outdoor lifestyle.

The original garage has been cleverly extended and adapted into a utility room, providing all-important additional storage and workspace. Fitted cupboards and worktops create a tidy environment for laundry and household essentials, with room for your washing machine. This thoughtful addition ensures that the main living areas remain free of clutter, making family life that bit easier to manage.

Another clever adaptation comes in the form of the converted storage room, now being used as a small bedroom. With enough space for a single bed or desk, this versatile room can be used as a guest space, a child's bedroom, or even a home office. Its flexibility makes it particularly valuable for if you're looking to future-proof your home as your needs change.

Stepping out from the open-plan kitchen and dining area, you're greeted by a rear garden that has been cleverly designed for ease of maintenance and year-round enjoyment. The space strikes the right balance between practicality and charm, offering different zones for relaxing, entertaining, and everyday family use.

The central area is laid with artificial lawn, providing a lush green backdrop without the need for constant upkeep. At the back, a paved patio creates the perfect outdoor dining area. Big enough for a table, chairs, and a parasol, it's a natural extension of the open-plan living space inside. Picture summer barbecues with friends, or long Sunday breakfasts outside on warmer mornings, with the garden acting as a private and peaceful retreat.

Back inside and up to the first floor, you'll find each of the rooms connected via the landing. The largest of the three bedrooms is positioned at the front of the property and immediately impresses with its generous proportions and bay window.

To the rear sits another well-sized double bedroom. This room easily accommodates a double bed alongside wardrobes or drawers, making it ideal for children, guests, or as a flexible family space. The rear window frames views over the garden, adding to the sense of calm.

The smallest of the three is positioned at the front and is perfect as a nursery, home office, or child's bedroom depending on your needs.

Completing the floor is a modern family bathroom. Tiled in neutral tones, it offers a clean, fresh look. The suite includes a bathtub with shower over, vanity sink unit with storage beneath, and a W/C. A window ensures natural ventilation and light, while chrome fittings add a touch of modern polish.
