The elegant new graphite frontage is immediately eye catching, standing out from your neighbours and making for instant kerb appeal. Step into the spacious porch first, finished in dark smoky aubergine with lots of handy extra space for bags, bikes and coats.

Head into the terecotta hallway and your kitchen is first on the right, blonde oak flooring flowing underfoot. In here you have a contemporary kitchen with matte black cabinetry, finished with brass fittings, timber worktops and integrated appliances.

This opens to your lounge, for a total space of over 300 square feet, natural light pouring in from a rear wall of windows and patio doors. The kitchen's raw plaster gives way to a soft green in the lounge, accented by stony cream and forest green. Step out to your garden for another recent addition, the rear patio is a masterpiece in natural slate, surrounded by well curated greenery and smart fencing. There's plenty of space for a variety of seating spots, a boon for outdoor hosting.

Back inside and a handy, smart, spare WC completes the ground floor. Upstairs are three bedrooms all with more hardwood floors, one small double and two larger ones both of which have handy integrated wardrobes. Next door your family bathroom's smart and colourful in smoky cream tilework and green accents, plus a shower over the tub. With large hallway cupboards upstairs, in the lounge and under the stairs there is lots of additional storage.
