Internally, the property has been beautifully and stylishly decorated throughout and finished with solid oak doors.
The property is approached via off-road parking for several cars and an integral single garage provides space for an additional car or ideal storage space.
The front door opens into a bright entrance hallway which provides access to the lounge / diner, kitchen and stairs to the first floor.
The main reception room is a light and airy L-shaped lounge diner and a clever arrangement of furniture creates two separate and usable areas. Functionally designed, the lounge / diner provides a free flowing layout between the kitchen and conservatory, creating an ideal socialising and entertaining space.

Fitted in the work surface is a one and a half sink drainer with mixer tap and a five ring gas hob with extractor hood over. Incorporated within the units is an electric double oven and grill, dishwasher and fridge freezer.
An internal door from the kitchen opens into a vestibule area which in turn provides access to a useful WC, utility room and garage. The utility room is surprisingly larger than average and has been fitted with matching base units and work surface to that of the kitchen. There is recess and plumbing for a washing machine and dryer and a door allowing access into the garden.
Stairs from the ground floor leads up to the first floor accommodation, which comprises of three bedrooms and bathroom.
There are two double bedrooms with contrasting outlooks with the larger of the two benefiting from a range of fitted wardrobes and complemented with a three-piece en-suite shower room.
The second bedroom is a fantastic sized double which overlooks the rear garden and provides ample space for bedroom furniture.
The third bedroom is a good sized single which could alternatively be used as a home office or study.
