Description
Beneath the staircase, a hand basin and WC, complete with tiled flooring and a heated towel rail creates a perfect addition for busy family life and visiting guests.
To the right, the lounge is the definition of comfort. A calming green tone to the walls creates a serene palette, complemented by inset shelving and bespoke cabinetry flanking a limestone fireplace. A wood-burning stove provides the focal point, with a TV mounted above. Herringbone flooring adds warmth and texture, while a bay window fitted with plantation shutters fills the room with soft, natural light. Arched radiators and central ceiling lighting add layers of character to a space that's cosy and perfect for relaxed evenings or weekend gatherings.
Flow straight ahead into the kitchen-dining area, where family life and entertaining blend seamlessly. Laminate flooring continues underfoot, leading into a generous space framed by two sets of patio doors opening out into the garden. Inset mats provide a practical solution for muddy boots and little feet, while the open-plan layout ensures the kitchen is as sociable as it is functional.
A classic combination of navy and soft grey cabinetry is topped with black worktops. At the heart of the space, a central island provides drawer storage and a perfect place for food prep or enjoying a morning coffee. A freestanding gas stove with a double oven and extractor complete the look, while the freestanding fridge and freezer units are neatly integrated into the design. Inset spotlights to the dining area illuminate mealtimes and celebrations, with pale blue walls keeping things fresh and airy.
Flow through to the rear extension, currently used as a children's snug, this could just as easily become a reading nook, TV den, or home gym. A Velux roof window draws natural light deep into the space, while a feature mural and cushioned lino add a warm, family-friendly feel.
On the opposite side of the house, a further extension currently serves as a second home office. With two windows to the front and Velux roof lights overhead, it's a room that balances function with serenity. Light blue walls and neutral carpet create a calm and adaptable space, while nearby, a fully fitted utility room offers plumbing for a washer and dryer, plus space to hang coats and store shoes out of sight.
Take the stairs, dressed in a plush neutral carpet, where another large window on the stairwell lets in natural light, fitted with plantation shutters for added privacy. The hallway continues the soft, considered palette, leading to three spacious bedrooms and a beautifully styled family bathroom.
The principal bedroom overlooks the garden, a tranquil setting to wake up to birdsong each morning. A dark green feature wall with vertical acoustic panelling adds depth and drama behind the super king bed. There's space for freestanding wardrobes, a chest of drawers and side tables, creating a room that balances indulgence with functionality.
To the front of the property, the second bedroom features fitted wardrobes and plantation shutters around a large feature bay window, adding charm and light in equal measure. A blue feature wall adds a subtle note of colour to an otherwise neutral palette, ideal for unwinding at the end of the day.
The third bedroom, currently used as a nursery, is another light and inviting space. Cream carpet and panelling complement the blue and white colour scheme, with plantation shutters once again elevating the window finish. Whether styled as a guest bedroom, home office or dressing room, it's a room that adapts easily to changing needs.
The family bathroom continues the home's contemporary aesthetic. Tiled in a soft sandstone shade, it features a deep bathtub with central filler and wand, a separate mains-powered shower, and a mirrored vanity unit with storage below. A large towel radiator completes the space, keeping things toasty underfoot and above.
Step out from the patio doors onto a raised porcelain tiled patio, ideal for alfresco dining, entertaining or simply soaking up the south-facing sun. Framed by a sleek glass balustrade, step onto a low-maintenance Astroturf lawn to the lower tier and grass to the upper tier, with a play area and additional seating space at the bottom of the garden. It's a layout that invites outdoor living year-round, whether you're hosting summer barbecues or curling up under a blanket with a hot drink.
