## Description

A classic double-fronted home, the Becket has a traditional exterior while its layout is ideally suited to modern century family life. Downstairs you'll find a large living room and an open plan kitchen/dining room. Both offer plenty of space for family life and are great for entertaining. The large kitchen/dining room provides direct access into the garden through a set of double doors, creating seamlessness throughout and filling the home with light, colour and fresh air. The dual-aspect living room is an elegant, soothing, space to relax and unwind. Also, on the ground floor is a convenient cloakroom, store cupboard and additional utility room conveniently located at the rear of the home, next to the kitchen. Move on up the staircase to the first floor and you'll find three generously-sized, bright bedrooms. The master bedroom has access to its own en suite and there's also a sparkling new family bathroom - the perfect space in which to unwind.
