The home also enjoys a dedicated dining room, where painted timber-lined walls in soft blue tones bring subtle colour and texture. There’s plenty of space for a family dining table and sideboard while glazed double doors open directly into the large conservatory.

This is a wonderful addition that enhances the living space of the property.

It can serve as a second lounge, a peaceful reading room or even a bright playroom, making it a warm, light-filled retreat all year round.

There are are two ground floor bedrooms in the home, each with their own appeal. The front-facing bedroom features crisp décor, white bi-fold shutters and plenty of space for a double bed and storage. Tucked quietly to the rear of the home, the second bedroom is a peaceful retreat with a soft carpet underfoot and a window for natural light. The room is a good size double with inviting decor, but it’s the private en suite that truly elevates it. This is a stylish, spa-like space featuring a freestanding slipper bath, elegant basin set into a sleek vanity unit and warm wood flooring that adds natural charm. A perfect sanctuary to unwind at the end of the day.

Completing the ground floor is a smart shower room, where white tiled walls, a large mirror and frosted window help maximise the light and airy feel. A mains-fed shower with modern enclosure is joined by a toilet and a basin set into a sleek storage unit, all finished in fresh, neutral tones for a stylish space for all the family.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress with two staircases leading to separate first-floor areas. At the rear, a second sitting room offers a cosy retreat with its own wood-burning stove, dormer and side windows and wooden floors. There’s plenty of room for seating, a TV and more, perfect as a snug or additional lounge.

A second staircase near the front entrance leads to two additional double bedrooms and a modern shower room. The first bedroom is light and inviting, with two windows drawing in natural daylight and a small built-in storage cupboard offering everyday practicality. Soft carpet underfoot and neutral painted walls create a calm, versatile space, ideal for guests or growing children.

The second bedroom is equally comfortable, with a peaceful feel and plenty of room for a double bed and accompanying furniture. It shares the same muted tones and welcoming atmosphere that flow throughout the home.

Also serving the upper floor is a well-appointed shower room featuring contemporary grey wall tiles, a large frosted window and a mains-fed shower inside a sleek enclosure. A basin set into a grey storage unit and a modern toilet complete this stylish space, ideal for busy family life or visiting guests.

Outside, the garden wraps around the house and is a real showstopper. Mature flower beds, shrubs and planting provide colour and charm throughout the year, while a large timber-decked area surrounding the conservatory offers a fantastic spot for outdoor dining and summer evenings. The tarmac driveway gives easy access to the detached garage, which is generously sized and ideal for parking, storage or workshop use.
