Description
Upon entering the property through the main hallway, you are drawn into the generously sized living room. This inviting space is filled with natural light, thanks to the attractive bay window at the front, and is further enhanced by a striking feature fireplace that adds warmth and character to the room, which is an ideal setting for relaxing or entertaining. Flowing from the living area is the beautifully appointed dining room, which also benefits from a bay window that mirrors the one in the lounge. This room is both functional and stylish, featuring a charming wood burning stove that creates a cosy atmosphere, built-in cabinetry offering practical storage solutions, and tiled flooring that combines elegance with ease of maintenance.
The modern kitchen is thoughtfully designed with a range of sleek wall and base units, providing ample cupboard and worktop space for everyday use. It is equipped with an integrated dishwasher and offers direct access to the rear garden through a convenient back door. Completing the ground floor is a useful downstairs W/C, ideally positioned for guests and day to day living.
Ascending the staircase, you will find four bedrooms, each offering flexibility for use as sleeping accommodation, office space, or guest rooms. Bedrooms one and two are particularly notable, as they each benefit from built-in wardrobes, offering practical storage while maintaining a clean and uncluttered aesthetic. All bedrooms have sufficient space to accommodate a range of furnishings and personal touches. The family bathroom comprises a four piece suite, including a bath, a wash basin, a toilet, and a separate shower cubicle, offering both comfort and convenience for modern family life. An additional feature of this property is the converted loft space, which includes Velux windows that flood the area with natural light. These rooms are currently used as versatile storage space but hold great potential for further development into bedrooms, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
Not only is the property located in a sought after location close to local schools and shops but sits on a wonderful plot which offers a rear garden which has a patio area, artificial turf and a storage room which is ideal for storage. To the front of the property you will find block paved driveway which can accommodate two vehicles.
