## Description

At the heart of the home is the generous dual aspect lounge/diner — a bright and inviting space ideal for both relaxing and entertaining. The room features a contemporary media wall with integrated fire, adding warmth, character and a sleek focal point to this superb open plan area.

To the rear sits the modern kitchen, fitted with grey high gloss units and complemented by integrated appliances, creating a clean, streamlined finish with plenty of storage and workspace.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with three well proportioned bedrooms. The master bedroom benefits from its own en suite shower room, while the additional bedrooms are served by a family bathroom and a separate cloakroom for added convenience.

Externally, the home is equally appealing. There is a driveway to the front and side, offering ample off street parking, along with a garage. To the rear lies a very large garden, providing fantastic outdoor space for relaxing, entertaining, or for children to play.

This is a wonderful property that combines modern style, space and practicality.
