Further along the hall, a guest WC and a deep storage cupboard sit conveniently opposite the stairs.

To the rear, the heart of the home unfolds into a truly impressive open-plan kitchen and dining area measuring over 20ft x 19ft. This space has been designed for both everyday family life and larger-scale entertaining, with a substantial central island and breakfast bar, high-specification cabinetry, and integrated appliances including oven, hob, extractor, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. The generous proportions allow for a large dining table and soft seating area, while bi-fold doors seamlessly connect a beautiful garden room benefiting from swathes of natural light, and which leads to the rear garden, bringing the outside in.

The first floor offers two spacious double bedrooms, each with its own contemporary en suite bathroom, ideal for older children or guests. The front bedroom spans the full width of the property and benefits from a wide bay window, while the rear bedroom enjoys garden views. Both en suites are finished to a high standard with sleek tiling and quality fittings.

A central landing and additional storage complete this floor, maintaining the flow and practicality throughout.

The top floor is dedicated to an exceptional principal suite, offering the privacy and scale of a boutique hotel.
