Designed around modern family living and entertaining, the space combines practicality with an exceptional finish.

To the first floor are three double bedrooms alongside a beautifully appointed family bathroom with underfloor heating. A spacious landing area has also been cleverly utilised as a home office space. The second floor is dedicated to an impressive principal suite, featuring a bespoke fully fitted walk-in dressing room and an en-suite shower room with underfloor heating. A further room on this floor provides excellent versatility, currently arranged as a second home office but equally suited as a nursery or cot room. **Externally** - The property is approached via a block paved driveway providing ample off-road parking, with power already installed offering potential for electric gates. There is also a lawned front garden and a double garage with electric door and rear garden access in addition to an electric car charging point.
