The heart of the home, the kitchen, is a real gem. Well equpped with tiled floors and part tiled walls for easy maintenance, it offers a beautiful view of the back garden. The abundance of windows ensures that natural light floods the kitchen, making it a delightful space to cook and spend time in.
Now, let's talk about the conservatory. Located at the rear of the property, it's a modern and secluded space where you can relax and unwind. Imagine enjoying a cup of tea or reading a book while being surrounded by the tranquillity of your own private oasis.
The master bedroom, overlooking the front drive, boasts large windows that let in plenty of natural light, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. And don't worry, there are two more generously sized bedrooms accessible from the hallway, perfect for family or guests.
The shower room is truly a treat, with its tiled walls, corner shower and vanity sink unit adds a touch of elegance.
Let's not forget about the practical aspects! The property comes with a large garage and workshop, providing ample storage space for all your belongings. No need to worry about clutter here!

It's the best of both worlds, allowing you to enjoy a peaceful and serene environment while still being well-connected to the hustle and bustle of daily life.
