We are proud to present this immaculate, three bedroom semi-detached house, with ground floor extension. Situated in a highly sought-after location, this property enjoys excellent public transport links and benefits from nearby schools, making it an ideal choice for a family home.

The lounge is cosy and inviting, featuring a wood-burning stove, perfect for those colder nights in. The kitchen is a real highlight of the property, boasting built-in appliances and a dining space for family meals and direct access into the attractive rear garden. This stunning property offers three well-proportioned bedrooms. The master bedroom, being a double, is spacious and can comfortably accommodate all your needs and is light and bright due to a feature half bay window. The second bedroom is also a double. The third bedroom is a single, making it perfect for children or home office.

The house has been maintained to a high standard, as the current vendor has had a new boiler fitted in 2018, a new longer than standard single garage installed in 2023 and oak style internal doors and feature balustrade and spindles.

Gravelled parking is ample to the front, ensuring convenience for both residents and guests. The outdoor space is equally impressive, with a generous rear garden offering an ideal setting for outdoor dining and relaxation during the summer months.
