Accommodation

The property is entered via a welcoming entrance hall, where stairs rise to the first floor and doors provide access to the principal ground floor accommodation. A useful cloakroom is fitted with a WC and wash hand basin, featuring attractive rustic styling. Positioned at the front of the property is a spacious sitting room, centred around a charming bay window overlooking the front aspect. This sociable reception room flows seamlessly into the adjoining dining area via double doors, creating a versatile space that can be opened up for entertaining or separated when desired. The kitchen has been finished in a contemporary style and offers a comprehensive range of wall and base units, drawers and generous work surface areas. Integrated appliances include an electric oven, induction hob with extractor canopy over and dishwasher, whilst there is also space for a freestanding American-style fridge freezer. An inset one-and-a-half bowl stainless steel sink and drainer is positioned beneath a window overlooking the rear garden. The kitchen opens naturally into the dining area, creating an impressive open-plan space spanning the width of the property. Both a single door and double doors provide direct access to the rear garden, flooding the room with natural light and creating an ideal environment for modern family living and entertaining. A practical utility area is accessed from the hallway and provides additional storage, worktop space, plumbing for a washing machine and a tumble dryer and access to a useful under-stairs storage cupboard before flowing into the aforementioned kitchen space.

On the first floor, the landing provides access to all four bedrooms, the family bathroom and a useful storage cupboard. The principal bedroom is a generous double room benefitting from an en-suite shower room comprising a WC, wash hand basin and enclosed shower cubicle. A notable feature of the home is the substantial extension above the garage, which has created a superb walk-in dressing room accessed directly from the principal bedroom. Featuring a vaulted ceiling, this impressive space offers excellent storage and a touch of luxury rarely found in similar properties. The second bedroom also forms part of the extension and enjoys a vaulted ceiling, creating a spacious and characterful double bedroom. Two further double bedrooms overlook the rear garden and are served by the family bathroom, fitted with a white suite comprising a WC, wash hand basin and panelled bath with shower over.

Outside & parking

To the front of the property is a driveway providing off-road parking and access to an integral tandem garage. An additional brick-paved section extends the available parking area and enhances the property’s attractive kerb appeal. The double length garage is an exceptionally useful and deceptively spacious area accessed via an electric roller door, offering excellent storage, workshop potential or a variety of alternative uses. A pedestrian door also provides convenient access directly from the rear garden.

Gated side access leads into the beautifully maintained south-facing rear garden, which has been thoughtfully designed to create an attractive and sociable outdoor space. A generous patio adjoins the rear of the property, providing the perfect spot for outdoor dining and entertaining. The garden enjoys a sunny aspect throughout the day and features a well-kept central lawn bordered by a variety of established shrubs, colourful planting and potted displays. A charming fishpond adds further character, whilst a useful storage shed provides practical garden storage. The garden is enclosed by a combination of attractive brick walling and fencing, making it ideal for both young children and pets.
