No 8 is one of the grandest of the 11 properties, the designers added individuality to each and every property here, making them all unique in their own way. This property is located near the main entrance making it the easiest to get in and out of.
You enter via a solid wooden door which reveals and long hallway and your first sighting of the gorgeous Oak parquet flooring which the vendor had fitted through out with the exception of the shower room. The herring bone lines lead you into the glorious open plan Kitchen/dining/living room. Space just opens up and the honey coloured floor shows itself off even more with its satisfying pattern and colour in contrast to the light grey gloss kitchen cabinets and granite work tops. There is a full range of integral appliances making life easy and you have the joy of sectioning up the room how you feel using your furniture. There is a rear access door to one part of the garden and the wide lobby has French doors leading to the other part which join up.
The sleeping quarters are provided by two double bedrooms, with space for wardrobes, chairs and so on. One is presently set up as a craft room/bedroom again flexible in use. The shower room has a modern white suite with a walk in double shower cubicle and underfloor heating perfect in the cooler months.

The beauty of this property is it has the largest most usable garden in the complex, enclosed by feather edge fencing, level, laid to Cerny stone making it low maintenance, also with an area of artificial lawn. You can adorn with planters, pots adding your favourite flowers to add splashes of colour throughout the seasons.

The owners have added heavy duty double gates that allow easy access to the garden and also had in mind the ability to drive a car into your own garden and secure it if desired. There is also an allocated parking space just opposite these gates that comes with the property.
Within the property is modern technology such as Hershel Infra Red heating panels situated on the ceilings which declutters wall space, each with individual room thermostat controls.
