Why buy this home?

If you like the idea of living in a modern home but don’t like the idea of waiting for one to be built or the expense of the inevitable upgrades than this one is sure to be of interest. Situated on the family friendly Clipstone Park development, this home has been beautifully decorated by the current owners, creating a truly special space for its next owners to enjoy.

As you step inside, the spacious entrance hall has durable tiled flooring which is ideal for busy family life. There's handy storage space under the stairs, where you can add smart storage solutions for all those everyday items. A large cupboard keeps shoes, coats and bags neatly tucked away, helping to maintain a tidy hallway.

The living room offers space to unwind with family, entertain friends, or simply relax after a long day. Defined by a sophisticated neutral palette, the room features crisp white walls and a striking charcoal grey slatted feature wall that creates a stylish focal point and adds a contemporary, architectural touch. The scale of the room means you can arrange the furniture in a way that suits your family's needs, ensuring there's plenty of space for everyone. Currently, it comfortably fits two large sofas and a matching ottoman with room to spare, but a corner sofa wouldn’t be out of place in here either.

Undoubtedly, the kitchen/diner is the standout feature of this home - a stylish and sociable space perfectly suited to both everyday family life and entertaining. Spanning the rear of the property, it enjoys French doors that open out onto the garden, creating a seamless connection between inside and out - ideal for summer dining or watching the children play. The kitchen is fitted with contemporary grey storage units, offering a sleek and modern finish while keeping everything neatly organised. The current owners have further enhanced the space with the addition of a central island, which creates a real focal point, while also providing valuable extra storage and preparation space. The dining area comfortably accommodates a six-seater table, making it the perfect setting for family meals or hosting guests. Stylish tiled flooring runs throughout, complemented by subtle lighting set within the kickboards, adding a refined and ambient touch to this already impressive space.

A door from the kitchen/diner leads to a handy utility area. This separate space houses a built-in washing machine, convenient storage for cleaning supplies, and room to tuck away an ironing board, helping to keep the kitchen organised and clutter-free while maximising storage.

Positioned off the main hallway is a W/C, a must have in any family home.

One of the benefits of buying an established home is that the garden is often already landscaped, and this one is no exception. No expense has been spared in creating a stunning outdoor space that you’ll be proud to showcase at summer BBQs. Soft grey paving and crisp gravel provide a stylish backdrop to the manicured lawn and stone planters, which are adorned with mature shrubs. The garden’s thoughtful layout allows for flexible use of outdoor furniture, easily accommodating an outdoor dining set, a dedicated BBQ area, and extra lounge seating. There’s still plenty of space for a children’s play zone if needed, and a gate provides convenient access to the driveway and garage.

Upstairs, the home has four well-proportioned bedrooms, including three generous double rooms and a good-sized single currently used as an office, all accessed from a spacious landing. The main bedroom, at the front of the home, comfortably accommodates a super king-size bed with space for bedside tables and a fitted wardrobe, and benefits from an en-suite shower room with a walk-in shower cubicle. Bedrooms two and three are both double rooms with fitted wardrobes, another thoughtful upgrade by the current owners. The fourth bedroom is a versatile single, currently used as an office.

The driveway has parking for at least two cars in front of the garage with additional visitor parking nearby.
