Description
Upon entering, a welcoming reception porch leads into a bright entrance hall, complemented by a convenient cloakroom and WC. The principal lounge is generously proportioned and flows seamlessly into a formal dining room, creating a perfect environment for entertaining or family gatherings.
A delightful conservatory, filled with natural light, extends the living space and provides an inviting area for relaxation throughout the year. The well-appointed kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of units and integrated appliances, while an adjoining utility room offers additional storage and functionality.
The original garage has been thoughtfully converted to provide a flexible room that could serve as a further reception space, home office, or even a ground floor bedroom, catering to a variety of lifestyle needs.
Upstairs, the landing gives access to three comfortable bedrooms, including a principal suite with its own en-suite shower room, as well as a stylish family bathroom. (Plans had previously been submitted and accepted for an extension above the original garage, although this permission has now expired.)
Practical features abound, including gas central heating, double glazing, and ample storage throughout.
To the rear, the property boasts a low maintenance garden, thoughtfully designed with hard landscaping for ease of upkeep, and benefitting from a large timber shed, ideal for storage or hobbies.
Davenham itself is a vibrant and popular village, renowned for its excellent amenities, including a Spar supermarket, two highly regarded pubs, and a well-respected church-aided primary school, making it an attractive location for families and professionals alike.
This outstanding detached home combines period charm and modern convenience in a prime village setting, offering exceptional flexibility and comfort. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the quality, space, and unique potential this property provides.
