Description
The property is approached by a generously sized driveway that provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles. The home has been extended by the previous owners and the ground floor accommodation briefly comprises a welcoming entrance porch with a door to the well-proportioned sitting room to the front of the house which leads you to the open plan kitchen/ dining room, which in turn leads you to the second reception room at the rear which could also be used as a fourth bedroom should you desire. Furthermore, the ground floor enjoys a practical wet room which has been created by using some of the garage space.
Upstairs, the first floor landing provides access to the loft space, and the three bedrooms, all of which are served by the family bathroom. Externally, there is a low maintenance, flat, child and pet friendly garden to the rear for all to enjoy when the sun is shining offering a great deal of privacy.
