Description
Step inside to find a light-filled living room providing a welcoming space to relax after a long day. The real showstopper, however, is the contemporary kitchen and dining area. Designed for both the keen chef and the social butterfly, it boasts a range of high-end integrated appliances including a double oven for the Sunday roast, an integrated dishwasher, and a washing machine for a sleek, seamless look. There is even a dedicated wine fridge, perfect for chilling a bottle before heading out to south-facing rear garden through the French doors.
The first floor continues to impress with three well-proportioned bedrooms. The master bedroom is a generous retreat featuring stylish fitted wardrobes that maximize the storage space. Two further spacious bedrooms and a modern family bathroom ensure there is plenty of room for a growing family or those needing a dedicated home office. Throughout the home, the decor is fresh and contemporary, reflecting the careful updates made by the current owners.
If you love the outdoors, the south-facing rear garden is a major highlight. Bathed in sunlight throughout the day, it offers a private sanctuary for alfresco dining, gardening, or simply soaking up the rays in a peaceful setting.
Haslington remains one of the area’s most popular locations, offering a friendly community atmosphere, highly regarded local schools, and excellent transport links. Located in a quiet cul-de-sac, this home provides the peace of suburban living with the convenience of nearby amenities. Early viewing is highly recommended.
