The Property

Set back from the road behind a wide frontage, this is a home that immediately feels substantial. A large driveway to the front provides parking for around three vehicles, giving a strong sense of space from the outset.

Step inside and the layout reveals a home that has been thoughtfully updated and well maintained. The ground floor centres around a welcoming hallway, finished with tiled flooring that runs through much of the space. To the front, two bay-fronted reception rooms mirror each other in scale. One is arranged as a more formal sitting room with a feature fireplace, while the other works as the main living space, filled with natural light from the large windows. Both rooms offer flexibility depending on how you choose to use them.

To the rear, the kitchen has been updated in 2022 with a clean, modern finish. Gloss units, wood work surfaces and integrated appliances combine with a practical layout that works well for everyday use. A seating area with a log burning stove creates a more relaxed part of the home, ideal for slower mornings or evenings in, with easy access out to the garden. A pantry adds useful storage without affecting the flow.

Upstairs, the space continues with four well-proportioned bedrooms. The two main bedrooms sit to the front, both enjoying bay windows that bring in plenty of light. The remaining rooms are equally versatile, whether used as bedrooms, a home office or additional living space. Two bathrooms serve the floor, including a modern shower room and a larger bathroom with a freestanding bath.

Outside is where the home really opens up. The gardens wrap around the property, with a south-facing aspect to the main lawn while still allowing you to enjoy sunlight throughout the day thanks to the layout. There’s a mix of lawn, established planting and seating areas, including a patio space with awning and fire pit, creating a natural spot to spend time outdoors.

To the rear, secure gates open into a courtyard area providing further off-road parking for multiple vehicles. This space also includes a stable setup and benefits from a concrete base and wiring already in place, offering clear potential for a future outbuilding or workspace.

The property is also available with no onward chain, offering a more straightforward move for those looking to proceed quickly.
