## Description

Tucked away in a well-connected location, this modern mid-terraced home offers stylish living across three well-designed levels. To the front, a private driveway provides convenient off-street parking and direct access to the integral garage—ideal for storage or additional vehicle space.

Step through the contemporary front door into a welcoming entrance hall. Here, you’ll find immediate access to a sleek downstairs WC, a practical utility room with space for essential appliances, and internal access to the garage. A staircase invites you to the heart of the home on the first floor.

Upstairs, the spacious lounge is perfect for relaxing or entertaining, with room for a full three-piece suite or a generous L-shaped sofa. Large windows invite natural light, enhancing the airy and inviting feel of the space. Flowing seamlessly from the lounge is the modern kitchen-diner—stylish and functional in equal measure.

There's ample room for a dining table, making this space ideal for everything from casual meals to dinner parties. French doors lead directly to the rear garden, creating a lovely indoor-outdoor connection.

On the top floor, the two generous double bedrooms offer comfort and space, while the third bedroom—currently used as a vanity room—presents a flexible option for a nursery, study, or guest room. The family bathroom is finished to a high standard, featuring modern fixtures and sleek grey tiling for a contemporary touch.
