The bespoke kitchen is fitted with crisp, contemporary cabinetry offering excellent storage, complemented by modern worktops and integrated appliances discreetly housed behind the units. A central island provides relaxed dining space, and a connecting door leads into the conservatory - perfect for enjoying the garden outlook in all seasons.

A fifth bedroom is currently arranged as a cosy snug, allowing flexibility for a study, playroom, or additional guest accommodation. A stylish four-piece family bathroom features clean, modern tiling and a walk-in shower.

The home is warmed by gas central heating and enhanced by Nordan windows and doors, known for exceptional durability, energy performance, and modern aesthetic appeal.
