Internally
The property is entered via a welcoming hallway leading through to the beautifully presented sitting room at the front of the home. This inviting space centres around a wood-burning stove set within a contemporary feature wall, creating a warm and cosy focal point, while modern décor and quality flooring give the room a fresh, comfortable feel — ideal for relaxed evenings or entertaining guests.
To the rear, the home opens into a stunning open-plan kitchen and dining area which forms the true heart of the property. The kitchen is fitted with sleek, contemporary cabinetry, integrated appliances and generous worktop space, complemented by a breakfast bar providing additional seating and a sociable connection to the dining area. The dining space easily accommodates a large table and benefits from French doors opening out to the garden, creating excellent indoor-outdoor flow for family gatherings and entertaining.
Directly off the kitchen is a particularly charming feature of the home — a quaint, private courtyard garden providing a sheltered outdoor seating area ideal for morning coffee, summer dining or simply enjoying a quiet outdoor space with minimal maintenance required.
Also on the ground floor are two further highly flexible rooms currently used as a home office and gym, both of which could equally serve as additional bedrooms, playroom or snug accommodation depending on requirements. A modern family bathroom with corner bath serves this level, offering further convenience for family living or guest use.
The first floor hosts three well-proportioned bedrooms, each attractively decorated and offering comfortable accommodation. A contemporary shower room on this level provides additional practicality for busy households.
The second floor provides a fantastic additional bedroom space, cleverly designed within the roofline to create a spacious and characterful retreat, ideal as a principal bedroom, teenage suite or guest accommodation.
A further benefit rarely found in properties of this type is the substantial cellar, offering excellent additional storage space and practical utility use.
Kitchen
The kitchen has been beautifully designed to create a sleek, contemporary space that works perfectly for modern family living. Fitted with stylish handleless cabinetry, the clean lines and uncluttered finish give the room a smart, modern feel, while durable quartz worktops provide both practicality and a touch of luxury. There is a clever breakfast bar area, offering an ideal spot for informal dining, morning coffee or socialising while cooking. Integrated appliances include a double electric oven, induction hob with extractor hood, dishwasher and washing machine. There is a dedicated space for a large American style fridge freezer ideal for large families. The kitchen is open plan to the dining area, courtyard and enjoys direct access to the garden, providing a natural hub of the home.
Bathrooms
The ground floor bathroom is finished in a contemporary style and offers a relaxing, well-appointed space ideally suited for family use. A standout feature is the large corner spa bath, perfect for unwinding at the end of the day, complemented by a modern vanity unit with inset wash hand basin providing useful storage. The room is finished with stylish tiling and modern fittings, creating a clean and practical space that comfortably serves both everyday family needs and visiting guests.
The first floor shower room has been smartly designed to provide a sleek and practical space for busy households. It features a modern glazed shower enclosure with contemporary fittings, along with a WC and wash hand basin set within a vanity unit offering additional storage. Finished in fresh, neutral tones and enhanced by natural light from the window, this shower room provides a convenient and stylish facility serving the first floor bedrooms.
Externally
The rear garden has been thoughtfully designed to provide a fantastic outdoor space suited to both family life and entertaining, while remaining easy to maintain throughout the year. A generous patio area creates the perfect setting for outdoor dining, summer barbecues or simply relaxing with friends and family, while the main garden area is laid with low-maintenance artificial lawn, providing a safe and usable space for children and pets without the upkeep of traditional grass.
A particularly charming feature of the home is the private courtyard garden accessed directly from the kitchen via patio doors. This sheltered and secluded space offers a wonderful spot for morning coffee, evening drinks or quiet relaxation.
Plentiful on-street parking is available to the front of the property.
