The spacious private hall is set upon an attractive wood floor that flows seamlessly into the main living space. A large double‐width storage cupboard provides generous capacity and houses the property’s heating system.
The open‐plan living area is bright and inviting, enhanced by multiple casement windows overlooking both the front aspect and surrounding greenery. Views towards the entrance of Captain’s Wood elevate the setting, creating a sense of tranquillity. The space benefits from modern spotlighting, ample power points, and a clean, contemporary finish.
To one side, the stylish kitchen offers generous worktop space and a range of soft‐close base and wall units. Integrated appliances include a fridge freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, oven and induction hob, complemented by a high‐powered extractor fan. Under‐cabinet lighting, tiled flooring and a Velux window providing additional natural light complete the design.
The bedroom accommodation comprises a generous principal room with bespoke fitted wardrobes and a well‐appointed ensuite shower room. The second bedroom is currently utilised as an occasional bedroom and study. Opposite this room is a luxury bathroom suite featuring a full‐sized bath with shower combination.
