Built in 1996, The Lavender House is a comfortable, modern, family home offering 2 000 sq. ft of well-laid out accommodation arranged over two floors and with a generous garden.
The ground floor has a wide entrance hallway leading to three reception rooms. The largest being a nearly 300 sq ft sitting room with a dual aspect, feature brick fireplace and open fire and double doors through to a formal dining room. The well-proportioned dining room has a door out into the rear garden and is connected to the kitchen. The modern kitchen has been upgraded in the past couple of years with sleek base and wall units, glass splashback, electric range cooker and induction hob. A utility room is accessed via the kitchen and has external side access. In addition to a downstairs guest toilet, there is a final flexible reception room which has had various uses for the current owners whether a playroom, study or television room and also has double doors leading outside.
Upstairs there is a galleried landing with four double bedrooms. Each bedroom has in-built wardrobe storage and the principal is not only very spacious but has a walk-though dressing area leading to an en-suite containing a bath with overhead shower. The large family bathroom serves the remaining three bedrooms and has a bath and separate shower cubicle.

The rear garden is a generous size and laid mostly to lawn with some specimen trees, a paved terrace and backs onto a strip of woodland providing great privacy. A further west facing, paved terrace area exits down one side of the house where there’s a garden shed. To the front is a block-paved driveway with manual timber gate and separate pedestrian gate providing access to the attached double garage which also has internal access from the downstairs hallway.
