## Description

Inside, the heart of the home is the expansive open plan living, dining, and kitchen area, thoughtfully designed to maximise space and natural light. Sleek wood flooring flows seamlessly throughout, lending warmth and character. The modern kitchen is equipped with stylish units, integrated appliances, wooden countertops, and a farmhouse sink, making it both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Large windows and glass doors flood the space with sunlight, while contemporary lighting fixtures add a touch of sophistication. French doors open directly onto the garden, creating a perfect setting for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. The adjoining utility room provides modern appliances, generous storage, and a practical layout for daily chores, enhanced by natural light and sleek cabinetry.

The property’s three bedrooms are all generously proportioned, each benefitting from large windows that allow plenty of natural light to fill the rooms, creating bright and inviting spaces. Neutral décor in the bedrooms provides a versatile backdrop for personal touches. The spacious master bedroom features a modern wardrobe with sleek black doors and a large TV setup, ensuring a private retreat for relaxation.

Both bathrooms exude contemporary luxury with striking design elements. The main bathroom boasts a freestanding bath, set against a stylish black tile backsplash, and is complemented by modern fixtures, heated towel rails, and elegant cabinetry for storage. The second bathroom features a walk-in shower with sleek black subway tiles, a modern radiator, and ample under-sink storage, making it practical for busy family life while maintaining a high standard of finish.

Additional features further elevate the appeal of this property. The inviting stairwell, illuminated by modern pendant lighting and finished with a comfortable carpeted staircase, enhances the homely atmosphere. A dedicated study or home office space, complete with shelving and abundant natural light, provides flexibility for remote working or quiet study.

Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the quality, space, and finish this beautifully presented home has to offer, particularly given its position in a highly sought-after location.
