Accommodation

Stepping in through the front door, there is an immediate, welcoming and homely feel to a home that is presented superbly. The main living spaces lead from here, as well as the cloakroom with WC and wash basin located under the stairs. The kitchen can be accessed from the hallway, along with a sitting room to the left featuring a bay window to the front, while double doors flow through to the family area.

This open plan space, together with the kitchen and dining space is without doubt, the biggest internal feature of the home, with a small but effective extension creating a wonderful area that is bound to suit any modern family. Adding a couple of metres' extension to the rear allows the space to be opened further, incorporating a bright dining area, additional sitting area that blends with the kitchen. There is also a tall cupboard for storage which also houses the boiler. Not only is it a sociable room for families, but it's also perfect for guests and entertaining, illuminated by the windows and doors that overlook and lead out to the west-facing sunny garden.

Meanwhile, the kitchen itself is a slick, contemporary room fully fitted with an abundance of wall and base storage cupboards and drawers, worksurface space aplenty with inset one-and-a-half bowl sink/drainer. Also, there is space for a breakfast bar and a range of integrated appliances which include a dishwasher, counter high fridge, eye level electric 'Bosch' oven along with an induction hob and extractor canopy over. Here, a door leads into the partially converted garage, now a handy utility room with space for a washing machine, tumble dryer and spare fridge/freezer, leading into the remainder of the garage.

Rising up the stairs to the first floor, the landing presents all of the bedrooms, along with a family shower room - a stylish suite consisting of a WC, vanity unit with wash hand basin and a large walk-in shower. Bedroom one is a generous double room featuring built in wardrobes, served by an en-suite facility comprising a WC, vanity unit with wash hand basin and an enclosed shower cubicle. There are two further double bedrooms and a larger-than-average single room which completes the home.

Outside & parking

The front of the home has a neat section of lawn laid, with a path leading from a tarmac driveway to the front door. There is an integral garage which is accessed by a traditional 'up-and-over' door, allowing for great storage.

Access into the rear garden can be found via a path at the side, leading round to a patio which spans the width of the home and adjoining the back of the property. Just like the internal space, the rear garden has been impeccably kept, designed with easy maintenance in mind and with a handy outside power supply. The attractive, sunny space is perfect for a spot of 'al fresco' dining, with a pleasant seating area, a well-manicured section of lawn and a lovely array of established shrubs and plants that add colour to the garden. Another section of patio creates a second seating space, and the garden not only enjoys plenty of sunshine through the afternoon and evening due to the west-facing aspect, but also boasts a great degree of privacy from surrounding properties.
