Description
The property is approached via a driveway providing off-road parking for multiple cars, with access to the attached garage which benefits from an electric roller door. A composite front door opens into the welcoming entrance hall, finished with stylish LVT flooring, solid oak staircase detailing and matching oak internal doors, creating a warm and modern first impression. There is also useful under stairs storage providing practical everyday space.
The lounge is a bright and comfortable reception room of good proportions, benefitting from two windows which allow plenty of natural light to flow through the room. Offering ample space for a range of furniture, it provides an ideal setting for both relaxing and entertaining.
To the rear of the property is the spacious kitchen/diner which has been updated with a range of matte grey wall and base units complemented by decorative linoleum flooring. The kitchen offers space for a Rangemaster cooker with extractor hood above, plumbing for a dishwasher and an integrated fridge/freezer. There is ample room for a dining table, making it a sociable and functional family space, whilst bi-fold doors open directly onto the rear garden, helping to create an excellent indoor-outdoor flow during the warmer months.
The ground floor bathroom has been fitted with a bath incorporating a thermostatic shower over, together with a WC and wash hand basin.
To the first floor, the landing gives access to three bedrooms comprising a generous principal bedroom positioned to the front elevation, a further double bedroom and a third bedroom which would also accommodate a small double bed or make an ideal nursery, dressing room or home office. The family bathroom has also been updated and comprises a bath with electric shower over, WC and wash hand basin.
Externally, the rear garden has been designed with ease of maintenance in mind whilst still offering a pleasant outdoor environment to enjoy. The garden features a patio seating area with awning, pergola seating area, lawn and gravelled sections, along with a vegetable border for those who enjoy gardening. A particular feature of the property is the detached garden shed/bar area which benefits from both power and lighting, offering excellent versatility and potential for use as a home bar, office, hobby room or additional entertaining space.
Further benefits include replacement windows and a recently installed boiler. The property also offers potential for a side extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions, allowing scope for future buyers to further adapt the home if desired.
An early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the space, versatility and convenient location this home has to offer.
