Accommodation

As you enter in through the front door, you’ll find stairs leading up to the first floor from the entrance hall, along with a door to the right into a large garage. The sitting room is to the left and the pleasant space benefits from a front aspect window and handy storage cupboard under the stairs, all flowing freely from front to back, allowing for a sociable and open living arrangement. As the living space blends into the kitchen, it also connects the bright conservatory extension which creates a double aspect allowing light to flood through to the kitchen and sitting room. It also makes for a perfect dining area and family space with double doors leading out to the rear garden. The kitchen itself is fully fitted with a range of wall and base cupboards and drawers, while there’s is space for appliances such as a dishwasher, free-standing fridge/freezer and an electric cooker with gas hob and fitted extractor canopy over.

The garage forms part of a substantial double storey extension completed by the current owners. The large area is an adaptable multi purpose space, currently arranged as a useful workshop, featuring ample power and lighting in addition to an electric roller shutter door. At the back of the garage is a well thought out laundry/utility area, featuring space for a washing machine, tumble dryer and also a spare freezer. There is an additional WC with wash basin and a single door leading out to the rear garden.

Rising to the first floor, a landing presents access to all of the main upstairs accommodation. Above the garage and also forming part of the extension is the principal bedroom - comprehensive space hosting a super-king size bed in between a slight partition between a large dressing and storage area of the bedroom. There’s a pleasant double aspect along with an abundance of built in wardrobes, and this huge bedroom makes for a unique feature in comparison to many other properties within Roundswell. Furthermore, a ‘Jack & Jill’ shower room is a useful addition, with enclosed shower cubicle and wash basin, linking together the middle bedroom. This is another double room to the front aspect, while a third single bedroom is positioned at the rear of the home. Finally, completing the accommodation is the family bathroom which comprises a white suite to include a WC, wash hand basin and a panelled bath with shower over and a partially tiled surround.

Outside & parking

Adjoining the double doors from the conservatory is a raised decking with space for a table and chairs and a barbecue. A couple of steps lead down to a brick paved path which approaches the back door into the garage, while the garden is very well established, featuring a range of colourful plants and shrubbery which breaks up the outside area. There is also a small tree in the corner amongst a section laid to lawn, further to a handy timber storage shed. Fencing encloses each side, making it a perfectly safe space for any of those with young children or pets.

The garage, accessed from an electric roller shutter door, is a secure space to park a car in addition to motorbikes etc. A slim brick paved area in front of the garage acts as a driveway for a small car if parked across the garage horizontally, while parking is completely unrestricted on the road, where there is ample spaces available.
