About this property
This modern detached home is situated on a sought after development known as Walsingham Gate, built in the late 1990s by Twigden Homes.
The property has been extended since its original construction and now comprises five bedrooms and three bathrooms, plus two large reception rooms.
On the ground floor you will find a hallway with ground floor cloakroom and stairs that lead to the first floor. There is a large double aspect living room at the front with feature fireplace, and a dining room to the rear with double doors to the garden.
The kitchen also has a door to the garden and is fitted with wall and base units with work surfaces and a ceramic sink. Integrated appliances include a double oven, ceramic hob with extractor over and microwave. There is space for your washing machine, tumble dryer, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. There is also a large built-in cupboard.
There is a double bedroom on the ground floor with its own en suite wet room. This has a digital power shower, WC and wall mounted wash hand basin. This is a partial conversion of the former double garage and has been designed to accommodate wheelchair users. There are ramps and other aids to assist further. These rooms are flexible and could serve as a home gym/exercise room or equally suit guests or anyone that would like self-contained accommodation by adapting other parts of the ground floor accommodation.
On the first floor there are four bedrooms, the smallest of which is currently fitted out as a home office. The master bedroom has a comprehensive range of fitted wardrobes and its own en suite bathroom. This is fitted with a large walk-in shower cubicle with power shower, WC with concealed cistern and fitted unit with wash hand basin. Bedrooms two and three also have fitted wardrobes.

The rear garden is low maintenance and landscaped with areas of paving and shingle. There are two levels with the lower level having a greenhouse and storage shed. There are security lights, an outside tap and side pedestrian access.
