## Description

The property boasts significant curb appeal with a large driveway providing ample off-road parking and an integrated garage.

Upon entering, the home immediately welcomes you with a light-filled, spacious entrance hall that sets an inviting tone. This leads into a generous lounge which flows naturally through double doors into a formal dining room. This social hub of the home is further enhanced by large patio doors that open directly onto the private garden, perfect for indoor-outdoor entertaining.

The heart of the home is a well-proportioned, bright kitchen fitted with extensive cabinetry, a built-in oven and hob, and plenty of floor space for a breakfast table. Practicality is key, with a convenient downstairs bathroom and direct internal access to the garage.

Upstairs, the home continues to impress with four well-sized bedrooms, including a principal suite with a private ensuite bathroom. Two further bedrooms benefit from a clever "Jack and Jill" ensuite, providing excellent convenience for a busy household. An upstairs family bathroom completes the first floor layout.

Outside, the well-sized rear garden is a unique asset, featuring a substantial, multi-purpose outhouse—a perfect solution for those requiring a dedicated home office, a hobby room, or a secure gym space.
