The Accommodation

Entrance Vestibule and Hallway

A recessed entrance provides shelter from the elements, with a partially glazed composite front door opening into a useful vestibule with space for coats and outdoor essentials.

An inner glazed door leads into the welcoming hallway, where attractive wood-effect vinyl flooring continues beneath the staircase. White internal doors and neutral decoration create a fresh, cohesive finish.

The staircase features timber-effect risers and carpeted treads, while the open space beneath provides room for additional furniture or storage.

Living and Dining Room

The spacious open-plan living and dining room is a particularly attractive feature of the home, offering an inviting setting for both relaxation and entertaining.

A bay window fills the sitting area with natural light, while the impressive fireplace creates a striking focal point. A cream wood-burning stove sits within the chimney breast against a brick-slip backdrop, with a sandstone-style hearth, raised shelf, log storage beneath and an attractive timber effect mantel above. An alcove beside the fireplace provides a convenient television position. Darker wood-effect vinyl flooring, ceiling coving and tasteful neutral decoration give the room a stylish yet comfortable atmosphere.

The dining area comfortably accommodates a family dining table, with a three-pane window overlooking the rear garden. Open access into the kitchen creates an easy flow between the principal living spaces.

The beautifully presented kitchen features cream Shaker-style cabinetry with brushed-metal handles, complemented by marble-effect laminate work surfaces and matching splashbacks. A generous selection of wall and base units includes a full-height larder cupboard and wine storage. Appliances include an undercounter double oven, electric hob and black extractor, while a Franke one-and-a-half-bowl stainless steel sink with flexible mixer tap sits beneath the rear-facing window. There is plumbing and space for a freestanding dishwasher. Wood-effect vinyl flooring, recessed spotlights and ceiling coving complete this appealing room.

Utility Room

The separate utility room offers excellent practicality, with additional work surfaces, a stainless steel sink and spaces for a washing machine, tumble dryer and American-style fridge freezer. Full-height cupboards with sliding doors provide valuable storage for cleaning equipment and household essentials. The Baxi boiler is also located here. A door opens directly onto the rear garden and paved area.

Second Reception Room

Currently used as a playroom and television room, this versatile reception room would work equally well as a family snug, home office or additional sitting room. French doors, flanked by windows, allow natural light to flood the room and open onto steps leading down to the enclosed front lawn. Attractive herringbone-effect flooring, neutral decoration and ceiling coving create a stylish finish.

Ground-Floor Cloakroom

The cloakroom is fitted with a close-coupled WC and a washbasin set into a wall mounted vanity unit, with a chrome waterfall tap. Decorative geometric splashback tiling, a glass shelf and matching floor tiles add attractive finishing touches.

Gardens and Parking

Front Garden

The property is approached by the paved path next to the home, across a gravelled parking area providing space for two vehicles. A charming picket fence separates the parking from the enclosed lawned garden, which is bordered by fencing and hedging. A mature tree beyond the boundary contributes to the attractive setting. Steps lead up from the lawn to the French doors of the second reception room. A lovely paved area provides a further sitting area.

Rear Garden

The fully enclosed rear garden enjoys privacy and is not directly overlooked. A paved area immediately outside the utility room with a ramp and wide doors on the ground floor allows access for wheelchairs downstairs, with a sheltered space for outdoor footwear and hooks for coats. Alongside is an attractive decked seating area, while steps lead up to the lawn beyond a retaining wall. Timber-edged raised beds add interest, and a separate barked area provides space for children's play equipment.
