The property is entered via a central hallway, providing access to all principal ground floor rooms. To the front, the main living room offers a comfortable and generously sized space, featuring large windows that allow plenty of natural light.
To the rear, the property opens up into a spacious kitchen/dining room, forming the main hub of the home. Fitted with a range of units and complemented by a breakfast island, the space comfortably accommodates both cooking and dining. From here, the layout flows into a bright sun room, enhanced by a roof lantern and glazed doors leading out to the garden, creating a pleasant additional reception space ideal for day-to-day use. A ground floor WC adds to the practicality of the ground floor.
Upstairs, the first floor provides five well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from a walk-in wardrobe area and its own en-suite shower room. Bedroom two also features an en-suite, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a family bathroom.
The accommodation is neutrally decorated throughout, with a mix of modern fittings and some individual decorative touches, allowing buyers the opportunity to personalise to their own taste if desired.
Externally, the property benefits from a driveway providing off-road parking and access to the garage. To the rear, there is an enclosed garden laid with Astroturf, and a patio area suitable for outdoor seating and entertaining.
