The master bedroom, part of the extension, is a spacious retreat featuring stunning wood-effect flooring that adds warmth and elegance to the space. This expansive master bedroom is designed for comfort and style, offering ample space for relaxation and personal time. The highlight is the impressive wet room, a great-sized area that combines modern design with functionality. The wet room also boasts a convenient door leading directly to the garden, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living and providing a tranquil escape right from your bedroom.

One of these rooms is currently utilised as an extra living space, showcasing the flexibility of the home's layout. Whether you need extra bedrooms, a home office, or a cosy lounge, this property can be easily adapted to meet the unique requirements of each individual owner.
The detached residence is situated on a substantial plot, offering both space and seclusion. The front of the property is bordered by a well-maintained driveway and lush shrubbery, providing enhanced security and privacy. This thoughtful landscaping creates a welcoming yet discreet entrance, ensuring that the home is both accessible and secluded from the outside world.
The property boasts an integrated single garage, offering ample space for storage needs and more. Whether you require room for tools, sports equipment, or even to park a vehicle, this garage provides a practical solution. Moreover, it presents an exciting opportunity for further development, allowing for an increase in the already expansive square footage of the property.

- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
- Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
