The Property

A covered entrance porch provides shelter before entering the welcoming entrance hall, which features a useful cloaks cupboard and separate airing cupboard housing a recently fitted Worcester boiler that is under warrantee until 2029. There is also an independent cloakroom, which, subject to the necessary consents and plumbing requirements, could potentially be converted to provide an additional shower room.

The principal bedroom is positioned towards the front of the property and is a generous double room, featuring a comprehensive range of fitted wardrobes with sliding doors, incorporating both hanging space and drawers.

Bedroom two is also a well-proportioned double bedroom with useful fitted storage, whilst bedroom three is a further smaller double bedroom, currently utilised as a study and providing excellent flexibility for those requiring dedicated home-working space or occasional guest accommodation. The bedrooms are served by a superb modern shower room, fitted with a large walk-in tiled shower with twin shower heads, including a waterfall head, fitted storage cupboards, heated towel rail, low-level WC and illuminated mirror incorporating a shaver point.

The dual-aspect sitting room provides a particularly attractive principal reception space and is centred around a feature fireplace with an inset coal-effect gas fire and marble surround. Sliding doors open directly into the garden-facing conservatory, creating a lovely connection between the main living accommodation and the garden beyond. The conservatory enjoys a pleasant outlook across the south-facing rear garden and provides an additional reception space suitable for relaxing, dining or enjoying the garden throughout the year.

The kitchen has been refitted with a stylish Wren kitchen, incorporating an excellent range of storage and integrated AEG appliances. These include twin self-cleaning ovens, a warming drawer and induction hob with extractor fan above. Thoughtful storage solutions include a concealed bin store and corner carousel units, making particularly good use of the available space. There is also a one-and-a-half bowl Blanco ceramic sink and drainer with mixer tap.

A useful rear lobby provides access to the garden and has space and plumbing for washing appliances, creating a practical utility area separate from the principal kitchen.

The accommodation has been carefully arranged to provide comfortable and practical single-storey living, with the extensive refurbishment carried out during 2022/23 providing a modern and well-appointed home while retaining excellent flexibility for future owners.

Outside

The property occupies a superb corner plot within this peaceful cul-de-sac, with attractive gardens extending around the property and providing an excellent degree of privacy.

The south-facing rear garden is particularly appealing and has been designed for ease of maintenance, incorporating areas of lawn complemented by colourful flowerbed borders and enclosed by mature hedging. The garden provides a pleasant and private setting for outdoor entertaining, gardening or simply relaxing in the sunshine.

There are also two substantial 8' x 6' garden sheds, together with a greenhouse, providing excellent storage and useful space for those with an interest in gardening. To the front, the garden is attractively laid to lawn with well-stocked flowerbed borders, creating an appealing approach to the property.

The property benefits from an impressive double garage, fitted with an electric up-and-over door and benefiting from both power and lighting. To the side is a useful covered carport, while the extensive driveway provides ample additional parking for a number of vehicles. The combination of the double garage, carport and generous driveway is a particularly valuable feature, offering significantly more parking and storage provision than many properties of this type.
