Description

Prepare to be bowled over as you wander round this handsome three bedroom detached home that sits in a leafy corner of Longton.

The front of the home is pretty as a picture with a neatly kept garden as well as room for parking and just across the road is even more greenery in Goms Mill Parkway which is literally on the doorstep.

The entrance to the home is covered so you can keep out of the rain as you rummage for your keys - this is also a fab place to hang festive lights or proudly display carved pumpkins!

As you step through into the entrance hallway, you will immediately see how light and bright the interior and is you continue straight ahead you can start things in the lush living room.

This has a lovely open plan layout and is full of style and sophistication. Here you can happily lounge on the sofa to your heart's content as you stretch out and enjoy some free time. There is ample room for everyone to get together for a movie night and when you have the house (and remote control) to yourself, you can indulge in a box set marathon in pure comfort. However you spend your time, you will truly appreciate being in such a lovely space.

More loveliness can be found in the delightful dining room - this is a wonderful venue for ordinary mealtimes and exceptional occasions. And after a hearty meal you can retire to the sun filled conservatory and relax as you ponder what to have for pudding.

But before stepping in to the conservatory for a closer look, take a detour into the kitchen. Here you will find everything you need to keep the household running smoothly - integrated appliances blend seamlessly with attractive cabinets and worktops with plenty of elbow room to create an ideal kitchen. As you peel spuds for a Sunday roast, you can gaze out to the garden and once the dishes are done you can grab a seat in the living room and enjoy a well-earned break.

Just behind the kitchen is a guest cloakroom, a handy addition to a busy household and when you have stopped in for a quick visit, return to the conservatory for some in depth exploration.

The glazed roof extends high above you and gives a lovely open feel - imagine sitting here on a sunny spring morning as you enjoy a freshly brewed coffee and savour the warmth. And how about indulging in a spot of stargazing on a clear night as you repose on the sofa and gaze upwards.

From here you can get a good look at the garden but to really appreciate it, head on outdoors for a stroll round.
Immaculately presented and immensely appealing, this is a garden to be enjoyed all day long.

As you step from the conservatory the generously sized patio is just the spot to position your garden furniture so you can really maximise time out here. The lawn adds a nice hint of greenery and is complemented by planted borders to really enhance the tranquil feel. Friends will love to be invited over for a BBQ as you enjoy a fun evening together and when you have an hour to spare, you can grab a seat and switch off for a while.

After spending some time in the garden, venture back indoors and make a beeline upstairs to have a look at the rest of the interior.

As you arrive at the top of the stairs, look at the bathroom which is to your left.

Here you can treat yourself to luxurious soak as you hop in the tub and enjoy some much needed me time.

Along the landing is the first of the bedrooms - this is cosy and comfortable with room to happily snooze the night away.

At the end of the landing you will find a further two bedrooms. To your left is suburb room that is just perfect for snuggling up in at the end of the day.

The third bedroom overlooks the garden and is a smashing size making it a good spot to start the day. And when you scamper out of bed, you can skip the queue for the bathroom and saunter into the snazzy ensuite shower room to freshen up before bounding down the stairs to get started on breakfast.

Four-legged family members (and those with two legs too!) will enjoy getting out and about for a stroll in the local area and when your legs are tired and you are ready for a rest, you can do so in style and comfort at 7 Overton Close.
