Description

Occupying a secluded and private position, the property is approached via a sloped tarmac driveway, beautifully framed by mature trees and colourful, well-established borders. The driveway leads to a spacious single garage with a remote-controlled door, offering secure parking for a large vehicle along with useful storage. Beyond the garage is a practical workshop, ideal for hobbies, which also houses the boiler and provides access to an under croft extending beneath the property. An additional gravelled parking area is located on the opposite side of the house, adding further convenience.

Stepping inside, you're welcomed by a light-filled porch featuring full-height windows and a Velux roof light, a perfect spot to relax year-round. A solid wood door opens into a spacious hallway, with doors leading to the ground floor rooms and stairs ascending to the first floor. A fitted storage cupboard offers handy space for coats and shoes.

The main reception room is a bright and generously sized living area with views over the surrounding gardens. Its layout allows for flexible furniture arrangements and socialising with family and friends. Across the hall, the kitchen/diner is stylishly appointed with a range of storage units and a complementary two-sided worktop. Integrated appliances include a stainless steel one and a half sink with mixer tap, four-ring gas hob, electric oven/grill, dishwasher. A fridge with freezer box and microwave are neatly tucked behind cabinet doors.

Located just off the kitchen, the utility room continues the same stylish finish, with additional units, worktop space, storage, and plumbing for a washing machine. An external door from here leads out to a flagged private patio, perfect for outdoor dining and enjoying the peaceful setting.

At the far end of the hallway are two spacious double bedrooms and the house bathroom. The master bedroom is a superb, light-filled space with lovely views over the surrounding gardens, complemented by fitted wardrobes and a stylish en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is also a generous double, featuring built-in wardrobes and open shelving for practical and attractive storage. Discreetly concealed behind one of the wardrobe doors is the hot water cylinder. The family bathroom is fitted with a modern three-piece suite, comprising a bath with wall-mounted shower, WC, and pedestal wash basin.

Stairs from the hallway lead up to a spacious landing area, currently used as a home office, complete with fitted units and desks. Velux roof lights flood the space with natural light, creating a bright and productive environment. There is also access to boarded eaves storage, offering excellent additional space. A door from the office area leads into the third bedroom, currently arranged as a large single with fitted storage cupboards and further eaves access. The room could comfortably accommodate a small double bed, making it ideal as a guest bedroom or additional study.

Outside, the surrounding gardens have been lovingly landscaped to create a tranquil retreat filled with colour, charm, and natural beauty. Thoughtfully designed, the outdoor space offers a variety of areas for relaxation and encourages local wildlife. A large flagged patio, screened by a fir hedge and shaded by mature Bramley apple trees, provides a private and peaceful seating area, perfect for entertaining or quiet reflection. A flagged path with handrail leads gently down through vibrant planted borders, a pond and wildflower meadow, adding to the garden's biodiversity and visual appeal. At the bottom of the garden, you’ll find more colourful planting and, in one corner, access to a mature woodland, offering a seamless connection to the natural surroundings.
