The property has been thoughtfully enhanced over the years to create a home that is significantly larger than a typical semi-detached property, providing versatile living space ideally suited to modern family life. At the heart of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family area, offering a sociable space for everyday living and entertaining alike. Flooded with natural light and enjoying direct access to the garden, this stylish space seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living. Complementing this is the generous lounge with log burner, providing an inviting setting for relaxation. To the first floor, the standout feature is undoubtedly the exceptionally spacious principal bedroom suite, offering far more room than typically found in similar properties. The bedroom benefits from a dedicated dressing area and a private en-suite bathroom, creating a luxurious retreat away from the rest of the home. Two further well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a contemporary shower room, while the flexible layout offers potential for those seeking additional home-working or dressing space. Externally, the property continues to impress. The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped across three distinct levels, creating a variety of spaces to enjoy throughout the year. From the decked entertaining area immediately off the kitchen, to the well-maintained lawn and additional seating areas, the garden offers both practicality and privacy, making it ideal for families, children and outdoor entertaining. To the front, a block-paved driveway provides ample off-road parking. Please note that an AML fee is chargable once an offer is accepted to cover the cost of carrying out the required identity and anti-money laundering checks. ## Property Photos - ![Picture No. 04](/listings/photos/94345560/2579651) - Picture No. 04 - ![Picture No. 12](/listings/photos/94345560/2579652) - Picture No. 12 - ![Picture No. 13](/listings/photos/94345560/2579653) - Picture No. 13 - ![Picture No. 11](/listings/photos/94345560/2579654) - Picture No. 11 - ![Picture No. 15](/listings/photos/94345560/2579655) - Picture No. 15 - ![Picture No. 17](/listings/photos/94345560/2579656) - Picture No. 17 - ![Picture No. 14](/listings/photos/94345560/2579657) - Picture No. 14 - ![Picture No. 05](/listings/photos/94345560/2579658) - Picture No. 05 - ![Picture No. 06](/listings/photos/94345560/2579659) - Picture No. 06 - ![Picture No. 16](/listings/photos/94345560/2579660) - Picture No. 16 - ![Picture No. 18](/listings/photos/94345560/2579661) - Picture No. 18 - ![Picture No. 19](/listings/photos/94345560/2579662) - Picture No. 19 - ![Picture No. 20](/listings/photos/94345560/2579663) - Picture No. 20 - ![Picture No. 24](/listings/photos/94345560/2579664) - Picture No. 24 - ![Picture No. 23](/listings/photos/94345560/2579665) - Picture No. 23 - ![Picture No. 21](/listings/photos/94345560/2579666) - Picture No. 21 - ![Picture No. 22](/listings/photos/94345560/2579667) - Picture No. 22 - ![Picture No. 01](/listings/photos/94345560/2579668) - Picture No. 01 - ![Picture No. 28](/listings/photos/94345560/2579669) - Picture No. 28 - ![Picture No. 02](/listings/photos/94345560/2579670) - Picture No. 02 - ![Picture No. 25](/listings/photos/94345560/2579671) - Picture No. 25 - ![Picture No. 27](/listings/photos/94345560/2579672) - Picture No. 27 - ![Picture No. 26](/listings/photos/94345560/2579673) - Picture No. 26 - ![Picture No. 10](/listings/photos/94345560/2579674) - Picture No. 10 - ![Picture No. 07](/listings/photos/94345560/2579675) - Picture No. 07 - ![Picture No. 09](/listings/photos/94345560/2579676) - Picture No. 09 - ![Picture No. 08](/listings/photos/94345560/2579677) - Picture No. 08 - ![Picture No. 03](/listings/photos/94345560/2579678) - Picture No. 03 ## EPC Graphs - ![EPC Rating Graph](/listings/photos/94345560/2579679) - EPC Rating Graph ## Sales History *Recorded sales for this property.
