Accommodation
A door at the front of the home opens into a useful porch with storage for coats and shoes etc, before stepping in to the main sitting area. Immediately upon entering this home, you are greeted with a warm feeling of style and comfort along with a homely atmosphere. The sitting room enjoys the window to the front and stairs that lead up to the first floor. A door heads into the kitchen which is a modern, fully fitted space with a range of wall and base cupboards and drawers all neatly arranged under a spacious worktop area. A sink/drainer sits underneath the window, while built-in appliances include a dishwasher, eyelevel double electric oven, microwave, gas hob and extractor canopy over. There is also a fitted breakfast bar and this open plan space flows into an extended dining area, creating a real sociable hub of the home for any family. From here, bi-fold doors open right out to the back garden, while there is also a door into the garage as well as a handy cloakroom comprising a WC and wash basin.
Heading upstairs, a large landing area presents access to all of the bedrooms on the first floor. Immediately to the left are the two smaller bedrooms, one of which is a single room and the other a double with a built-in wardrobe, both to the front aspect. They are served by a family bathroom which comprises a WC, wash basin, and a panelled bath. The main bedroom is to the rear aspect, over the extended part of the home - a substantial double bedroom which also includes built-in wardrobes and a modern en-suite facility. There is a WC, wash basin and enclosed shower cubicle with a partially tiled surround. Completing the accommodation is bedroom two, which is another great double bedroom with more built-in storage.
**Outside & parking **
The front of the home is somewhat unassuming, not giving much clue of the vast amount of space inside. An integral garage is at the back of a driveway, accessed via a traditional ‘up and over’ door. The garage is connected to power and light, and also houses the boiler, washing machine and tumble dryer. A small decked path connects the driveway to the front door while a small section is laid to lawn and decorated with various potted plants and a raised flower bed border.
To the rear, an area of decking joins the back of the home from bifold doors doors, and a patio is tucked behind the extension, creating a useful hardstanding storage area. Primarily, the garden is otherwise laid to lawn and enclosed by fencing at each side. The garden is particularly secluded and trees beyond the boundary provide plenty of greenery.
