Step into this beautifully presented home through the practical entrance porch and into the welcoming hallway, where stylish wood-effect flooring flows throughout the ground floor, setting a warm and cohesive tone.
From here, make your way into the show-stopping open-plan kitchen/diner. The kitchen itself is fitted with contemporary units, solid wood worktops, and a striking tiled splashback. It includes a gas range cooker with extractor above, along with space and plumbing for a washing machine and an integrated dishwasher. Natural light floods the area through multiple Velux windows and French doors, enhancing the open, airy feel.
The dining area is a standout feature with a charming exposed brick fireplace housing a wood burner, complemented by statement pendant lighting and character wallpaper. This space is perfect for both family meals and entertaining. There’s also a useful storage cupboard, as well as French doors that lead outside to the garden and a second set that open into the lounge.
The lounge is another generous and inviting space, brightened by twin windows and warmed by the same wood burner that extends from the dining area, creating a cosy atmosphere for relaxing evenings.
On the ground floor, you’ll find three double bedrooms. One includes a built-in cupboard with a sink, offering flexibility as a guest room, home office, or hobby space. The remaining two double bedrooms feature built-in wardrobes, including the impressive master bedroom. This primary suite enjoys a stylish en-suite shower room with a glass-enclosed shower cubicle, tiled flooring, heated towel rail, and clever storage.
A contemporary family bathroom serves the rest of the ground floor, fitted with a bath, inset ceiling lights, modern tiling, a wash basin, and WC, all presented in excellent condition.
Make your way upstairs using the striking central spine staircase, designed with open wooden treads and a sleek glass balustrade that enhances the home’s modern finish. Upstairs, a fourth double bedroom offers further versatility, complete with a double-glazed window and radiator, ideal as a peaceful retreat or additional sleeping space. This floor also benefits from access to a very generous, fully boarded loft space, ideal for additional storage or potential future conversion, along with a second storage cupboard on the landing.
Additional practical features include double glazing throughout and a recently installed boiler, offering energy efficiency and peace of mind.
Outside, the rear garden is fully enclosed and designed with privacy in mind, making it a peaceful retreat for everyday enjoyment. A large patio area offers the ideal setting for outdoor dining, family gatherings, or simply relaxing in the fresh air. Established borders filled with mature plants and shrubs add character and colour throughout the seasons. A shed provides convenient garden storage, and the entire space is neatly enclosed by fencing for added security and seclusion.
