## Description

Occupying a desirable, private position on this sought-after Booker Homes development in Mapplewell, is this beautifully presented semi-detached home.

Featuring well planned, spacious accommodation with an open plan living space to the ground floor and a conventional first floor layout with three bedrooms. An ideal home for professionals, couples and families alike, ready to go with no upward chain.

The ground floor opens into the living room, which has an open plan dining area which leads to the kitchen and also has French doors out to the garden. The first-floor landing leads to three bedrooms and the family bathroom.

Externally, the house is set back from the cul-de-sac on a driveway for only two properties, where there is a private driveway which leads along the side of the house to the rear, where there is a detached garage. The rear also has a privately enclosed lawned garden with flagged patio, ideal for summer outdoor living.

Positioned close to the heart of Mapplewell village, which is well served by a range of amenities, including independent shops and retailers, a supermarket and several well-regarded pubs, bars and restaurants.

Mapplewell is also served by amenities in the surrounding villages of Staincross and Darton and is well situated with convenient access to the M1 motorway network with commuter links across Yorkshire.

Younger families are catered for with good primary schools in Darton and Mapplewell, in addition to Darton Academy secondary school.
