Situated at the end of a leafy and highly sought after cul de sac positioned just a short fifteen minute (or so) stroll from the town centre, this well-maintained detached house offers over 1400 square feet of well-presented and wonderfully light accommodation over two floors. Occupying an excellent and rare corner plot position, this home showcases a notable amount of potential on offer to extend the property in several different ways (subject to any necessary consents), owing to the substantial gardens at the rear, front, and side.
Approach the property via the wide private driveway which is capable of supporting multiple sizeable vehicles, and enter into a welcoming entrance hallway which gives access in turn to a useful downstairs cloakroom and a spacious sitting room. This sitting room benefits from plenty of natural light that streams in through the large window which pleasantly enhances the rich colour of the solid wooden flooring, leading through to an inviting separate formal dining room which flows on smoothly in turn through to a bright and solid conservatory / garden room. Often basking in plenty of Southerly and Westerly sunlight, this relaxing space features doors that open out to the large patio and could also serve the purpose perfectly as a play room or home office. Also conveniently accessed via the dining room, a well-appointed kitchen has been installed around four years ago and comes equipped with a NEFF oven and hob with CDA extractor, a CDA microwave-grill and a Zanussi fridge/freezer. Conveniently overlooking the garden, this kitchen provides access to a handy utility room that has useful side access to the garden as well as additional space, power, and plumbing and other appliances such as a the tumble drier and washing machine. This utility room opens up in a semi-open plan fashion to an versatile area which has served as a pleasant home office that also enjoys a lovely calming vista out over the rear garden.
Head upstairs where a bright landing supports four double bedrooms, the largest of which benefits from a generous supply of fitted wardrobes and cupboard storage. All of the bedrooms offer occupiers a lovely leafy outlook at both the front and rear and are served by a stylish modern shower room which offers a fully tiled suite comprising of a large walk-in shower enclosure, a sink with vanity storage unit, a heated towel rail and the W.C. It is worth noting that the dimensions of this shower room would comfortably welcome the installation of a bath, should the new owner require one.
The large front garden and sprawling driveway frame the house back nicely from the peaceful cul de sac on which it sits, promoting a great feeling of privacy and seclusion within. The generous gardens that form this attractive corner plot wrap around this property from front to back, extending substantially at the rear to a space which has been lovingly manicured and designed with a variety of different uses in mind. An inviting and highly private patio is bordered with well-stocked herbaceous raised borders, all of which can often be found bathed in an abundance of direct sunlight throughout the day. There is a generous amount of lawn on offer which is bordered on both sides by an array of thoughtfully arranged colourful flowers and neat hedge row that provide an exquisite backdrop of vibrancy to enjoy through the year. Accented with a choice selection of small trees, this gorgeous mature garden successfully promotes wildlife and can be enjoyed year round, owing to the excellent due South-West facing orientation. This thriving outside space also features a well-organised allotment area which is formed of various raised planting beds which are currently home to a mixture of fruits and vegetables, accompanied by a useful greenhouse. Benefitting from outside lighting and a water tap, there is secure side access that runs along the side of the integral single garage (which benefits from light, power, and potential for conversion), as well as a tidy area to store the bins and several secure wooden storage shed in situ.
