Key Features
On approaching this lovely home, the driveway provides access to both garages, offering a parking space with a set of steps leading up to the front entrance of this elevated property. To the front is a generous garden with a planter housing mature shrubs and trees, while double doors open into the porch.
Upon entering the home, you are welcomed into a spacious hallway providing access to the principal rooms. The living/dining room benefits from double-aspect windows, flooding the room with natural light and providing a beautiful outlook over the surrounding village and fields. Double doors also offer secondary access to the front, enhancing the living space during the summer months. An opening lead into the dining area, which benefits from a side-aspect window and a door providing access to the kitchen.

The modern kitchen is tastefully designed with tiled flooring and offers plenty of storage, fitted with a range of wall and base-level units with attractive composite work surfaces over, housing a dual inset sink with mixer tap. Integrated Bosch appliances include a dishwasher and fridge/freezer. The worktop also provides an ideal breakfast bar area, while the units discreetly house the boiler and offer additional space for further appliances.

Excellent storage solutions continue throughout the home. All bedrooms are generously sized doubles with ample space for wardrobes or additional storage, and each room benefits from good-sized windows allowing plenty of natural light. Two bathrooms complete the home. One features an attractive roll-top bath with central mixer tap and shower attachment, a hand wash basin and WC, along with linen shelving and part-panelled walls.
