The kitchen
Ideal for busy family life, the kitchen provides generous preparation and storage space. It features a range of traditional timber cabinets, a double oven with an extractor canopy and a sink set beneath a broad window overlooking the garden. An adjoining area offers scope to create a utility room or pantry, adding to the practical layout.
The living room and dining room
Designed for relaxing and entertaining, the long living and dining room stretches from the front to the rear of the house. A decorative fireplace creates a focal point, while large windows at either end frame garden and front aspects. There is ample space for both seating and dining areas and a door from the hall makes it convenient for everyday living.
The primary bedroom
Situated at the front of the first floor, the primary bedroom offers a restful retreat. A wide window overlooks the street and the room benefits from a fitted wardrobe with sliding doors. There is plenty of room for a double bed and additional furniture, creating a comfortable main sleeping space.
The second bedroom
Enjoying far-reaching views from a rear-facing window, the second bedroom is another good-sized double room. The coved ceiling adds character, and the window frames open countryside vistas beyond the garden. This versatile room would suit guests or family members and easily accommodates wardrobes and other furniture.
The third bedroom
Currently used as a study, the third bedroom provides a flexible space for work or rest. It features a front-facing window and a coved ceiling, making it a bright and functional room. This room would serve well as a single bedroom, nursery or home office depending on your needs.
The bathroom
Serving the first floor, the family bathroom is finished with colourful tiling. It includes a panelled bath with an overhead shower, a pedestal basin and a WC. Frosted windows allow for natural light and privacy, while the tiled walls make for easy maintenance.
The garden
A highlight of the property is the south west facing rear garden, ideal for outdoor enjoyment. It features a generous lawn bordered by mature hedging and shrubs, along with a useful garden shed. There is ample space for seating or play, and the plot enjoys uninterrupted views over open countryside.
The driveway and parking
To the front of the house a recently laid driveway provides convenient off-road parking. The drive is bounded by a mature evergreen hedge for privacy and leads to a charming covered porch. A side gate offers access to the rear garden, and there is ample space to park multiple vehicles.

Fees
Reservation Fee - refundable on exchange
A reservation fee, refundable on exchange, is payable prior to the issue of the Memorandum of Sale and after which the property may be marked as Sold Subject to Contract. The fee will be reimbursed upon the successful Exchange of Contracts.
The fee will be retained by Andrew Grant in the event that you the Buyer withdraws from the purchase or does not Exchange within 6 months of the fee being received other than for one or more of the following reasons:
1. Any significant material issues which individually are more than 1% of the agreed purchase price and are highlighted in a survey and were not evident or drawn to the attention of you, the Buyer, prior to the Memorandum of Sale being issued.
2. Serious and material defect in the seller’s legal title.
3. Local search revealing a matter that has a material adverse effect on the market value of the property that was previously undeclared and not in the public domain.
4. The vendor withdrawing the property from sale.
The reservation fee will be 0.5% of the accepted offer price for offers below £800,000 and 1% for offers of £800,000 or over. This fee, unless specified otherwise, is payable upon acceptance by the vendor of an offer from a buyer and completion of an assessment of the buyer’s financial status and ability to proceed.
Should a buyer’s financial position regarding the funding of the property prove to be fundamentally different from that declared by the buyer when the Memorandum of Sale was completed, then the Vendor has the right to withdraw from the sale and/or the reservation fee retained. For example, where the buyer declares themselves as a cash buyer but are in fact relying on an unsecured sale of their property. The reservation fee will not be refunded where there is an inability on the part of the Buyer to raise any required mortgage after the Memorandum of Sale is completed.
Once the reservation fee has been paid, any renegotiation of the price stated in the memorandum of sale for any reason other than those covered in points 1 to 3 above will lead to the reservation fee being retained. A further fee will be levied on any subsequent reduced offer that is accepted by the vendor. This further fee will be subject to the same conditions that prevail for all reservation fees outlined above.
