With its blend of convenience, space and outlook, this is a home that offers so much.

The dining area is just as appealing, with a characterful bay window overlooking the front garden. A curved radiator fits neatly into the bay, and deep skirting boards and continued wood-effect flooring give the space a classic feel. There’s plenty of room for a family-sized dining table, making it an ideal setting for everything from casual breakfasts to more formal dinners. The kitchen/breakfast room is a really sociable and practical space, well-fitted with a range of base and wall units, a gas hob with electric oven beneath, a glass splashback and filter hood above. There’s a breakfast bar for quick bites or coffee breaks, and room for an American-style fridge/freezer.

From the entrance hall, stairs lead up to a light-filled landing, where a side window brings in daylight and wooden panel doors lead off to the bedrooms and bathrooms. The principal bedroom is a generous double bedroom at the front of the house, filled with natural light thanks to a feature bay window that blends aluminium and timber. This room feels bright and open, with space for a large bed and additional furniture. Bedroom two is a peaceful rear-facing double bedroom with lovely views over the patio and beyond to the surrounding woodland. There’s plenty of space for wardrobes and furniture, and the room has a calm, restful atmosphere – ideal for unwinding at the end of the day.
