The Property

Elevated above a broad, tree-lined avenue, this beautifully presented four-bedroom link-detached house offers a welcoming setting for family life. Refurbished to an exacting standard by the current owner, the interiors combine thoughtful finishes with generous living spaces, complemented by a landscaped rear garden and ample parking to the front.

Extending to 1,816 sqft, the accommodation has a particularly sociable layout. At its heart is an impressive kitchen, dining and family room, opening into a light-filled orangery. Contemporary cabinetry, clean-lined work surfaces and a central island give the kitchen an elegant simplicity, with plenty of space for cooking, gathering and everyday meals. There is room for a substantial dining table, while the orangery provides a comfortable place to sit beneath the glazed roof, enjoying the garden outlook throughout the seasons.

Bi-fold doors open onto the rear terrace, bringing the house and garden together beautifully in warmer weather. The connection through to the front living room adds further flexibility, allowing the spaces to work together when entertaining or providing a quieter room in which to relax. Its broad front window, soft colours and considered decoration create an inviting atmosphere.

A separate utility room keeps the practical side of family life neatly organised, and a stylish ground-floor shower room is a useful addition.

Upstairs, four well-presented bedrooms continue the quality of finish found throughout the house. The luxurious family bathroom is a particular highlight, with a sculptural freestanding bath, contemporary vanity unit and contrasting wall panelling creating a calm and beautifully composed space.

The rear garden has been landscaped with equal care. A generous terrace immediately behind the house provides space for outdoor dining and summer evenings with friends, leading onto a neatly maintained lawn framed by established planting. Further seating areas offer different places to enjoy the garden, with mature greenery giving it an appealing sense of enclosure.

With its immaculate interiors, generous entertaining spaces and attractive avenue setting, this is a home ready to enjoy from the outset. Offered with no onward chain.
