About this home
We are delighted to offer this substantial detached home, set on a generous plot with electric gates providing privacy and seclusion. The property benefits from a south-west facing rear garden and is offered with no onward chain.
The accommodation begins with an entrance porch leading into a welcoming hallway, with a turning staircase, cloakroom/WC, and wood parquet-style flooring throughout the principal ground floor rooms.
The heart of the home is an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area, featuring bi-folding doors and French doors opening onto the rear garden. This space includes a feature fireplace with bespoke storage and a high-quality fitted kitchen with central island and integrated appliances. A utility room provides access to the double garage, currently used as a gym/recreation space. There is also a study/snug to the front with a bay window and built-in desk.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom enjoys garden views, an en suite shower room, and access to a dressing room (or potential fifth bedroom). The second bedroom also benefits from an en suite, while two further double bedrooms are served by a modern family bathroom.
Externally, the property offers a block-paved driveway with parking for multiple vehicles and a beautifully maintained south-west facing garden, with a large patio and lawn, ideal for entertaining.
