Description
Arriving at the property you are greeted by a driveway to the left hand side of the home, you have space for two or more vehicles meaning there will always be space to park! You have a low maintenance gravelled front garden, this would be a great space to incorporate some pots and plants to add further colour to the home.
Leading into the home itself you have an entrance hallway with stunning parquet flooring, stairs leading to the first floor and doors taking you too all of the ground floor rooms. There is the formal living room to the right hand side with picture rails and a bay window brining the character of the property inside, there is ample seating options available to you, what a great space to unwind after a busy moving day. Furthermore you have a convenient downstairs WC along with a storage cupboard ensuring the home is as clutter free as possible. I have saved the best until last with this room...the gorgeous open plan kitchen/family room! This room has been meticulously designed to ensure it offers it all, a modern but elegant shaker kitchen sits on the left hand side with a mixture of built in and freestanding appliances along with ample worktop space. The breakfast bar helps incorporate the dining section to the kitchen with up to three seating options, you have space for a further dining table along with a sofa or a perfect location for the children to play whilst you are cooking the family meal! Bi-Fold doors and two large velux windows allow in so much natural light to this room it truly is not one to be missed!
On the first floor of this home you have a stunning family bathroom with the best of both worlds. A bath sits on the back wall with a freestanding WC, hand basin along with a separate shower. The principle bedroom and bedroom two are both generous sized double rooms with bedroom three being the smallest of the three. Please note some properties on this street have converted into the loft creating an additional double bedroom.
