The specification includes underfloor heating, a combination of engineered timber flooring, Porcelain tiling and carpets, energy efficient lighting and EV charging point.

From the welcoming reception hall, with glimpses of the galleried landing above, the accommodation has a natural flow.

Double internal doors connect to the adjacent kitchen/breakfast room, filled with natural light courtesy of glazed folding doors which open to the terrace. Fitted with sleek cabinetry and Quartz worktops, the kitchen has integrated appliances and breakfast bar, creating a functional divide to the dining zone.

Enclosed by sapling beech hedging, with an area of lawn and flower beds at the front, the property is approached via a driveway which provides parking and leads to the detached garage. A timber gate provides side access to the generous rear garden, which is mainly laid to an expanse of lawn. Paved terracing spans the back of the house, with direct access from the kitchen and sitting room, providing the perfect location for outside entertaining and taking advantage of the sunny, south-easterly aspect. The Garden room can be used for a variety of uses, including an excellent home-working space, studio or gym. The property also enjoys use of the landscaped communal gardens and recreation area.
