The large rear window is a real feature here. Positioned above the sink, it draws your attention straight out towards the garden, giving you pretty greenery as a backdrop while you cook. It allows in a wide sweep of natural light, which softens the cabinetry and stops the room from feeling enclosed.
There is still scope here to personalise, whether that means adding open shelving, introducing new tiling, or simply styling it to your own taste. The tiled flooring is practical underfoot and ideal for a busy household, easy to maintain and forgiving of everyday spills.
Stepping outside you'll find your rear garden space. This runs away from the house in a long, established stretch, giving you far more room than you might first anticipate. Mature hedging and tall evergreens frame the boundaries, adding texture, greenery and a welcome degree of privacy throughout the year. There's a small pond to enjoy and room for storage at the rear of the garden too.
Closest to the house, a timber-decked seating area creates a natural spot for outdoor dining. You can picture a table and chairs here, a barbecue on the go, friends gathered on a warm evening while the house spills open behind you. It is a practical, usable area that feels defined yet still connected to the wider garden.
Beyond the decking, the lawn forms the heart of the space. It is generous enough for children to kick a football, for pets to stretch their legs, or for you to simply enjoy the openness that so many buyers look for.
The layout offers flexibility too. If you are keen on gardening, there is scope to introduce borders, raised beds and a vegetable patch or even a further seating area without losing that sense of space.
A timber shed sits neatly to one side, providing handy storage for tools and outdoor equipment, keeping the main garden uncluttered. Gravelled sections and planting areas add subtle structure, while the established trees create height and character that would take years to recreate from scratch.
Overall, this is a garden that balances practicality with potential. It is long, very private and adaptable, offering you room to relax, entertain and make it your own over time.
Moving back inside and upstairs, the first floor continues the same fresh, ready-to-move-into feel found downstairs.
The principal bedroom is positioned to the front, with soft neutral decor and plenty of floor space for a double bed and additional furnishings. It feels calm and well-proportioned, the kind of room where you can properly unwind at the end of the day.
The second bedroom is another comfortable double, bright and welcoming, ideal as a guest room, a teenager's space, or even a generous home office if that suits your lifestyle.
The third room lends itself perfectly to a nursery, dressing room, study or creative space. It is a flexible room that adapts to you, rather than dictating how it should be used.
Completing the floor is a stylish, contemporary bathroom. The modern suite features a bath with overhead shower and sleek screen, crisp tiling, a heated towel rail and a clean, uncluttered finish. It feels fresh, practical and well thought through, making daily routines simple and easy.
