Description
Inside, is a bright, galley-style fitted kitchen bathed in natural light from a feature skylight. This practical space offers seamless garden access, a dedicated utility area for tucked-away storage, and double doors that flow into the expansive open-plan living area.
The interior transitions from a dining zone into a warm, inviting lounge, featuring a premium electric log burner that creates a true heart-of-the-home feel. Adding to the versatility of the ground floor, an opening leads to a delightful snug—a perfect reading nook that invites the outdoors in through patio doors.
Unique touches, such as the charming stained-glass front door in the hallway add character to the home.
Located off the hallway is a generous ground-floor master suite. This private sanctuary features a sleek, modern en-suite finished with stylish grey tiling and a bath with an overhead shower.
Upstairs, the home continues to deliver with three further well-proportioned bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom equipped with both a bath and a walk-in shower for ultimate practicality.
The exterior is equally well-considered; the quaint, low-maintenance garden is predominantly paved for easy entertaining and features a delightful summerhouse, offering a peaceful retreat for outdoor relaxation.
