The kitchen has been thoughtfully redesigned to provide a modern and practical layout, with sleek white gloss units and a centrally positioned five-burner gas hob, allowing the designated cook to remain part of the conversation! Clever storage solutions include carousel corner cupboards, tall pull-out larder units, and double eye-level electric ovens, all designed for practicality. There is also an integrated dishwasher and space for a freestanding fridge freezer.
Adjoining the kitchen is a separate utility room with a second sink, space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, and direct access to the garden—ideal for laundry days and bringing in shopping.
Upstairs, the landing leads to three generously sized bedrooms. The en suite double room works equally well as a principal bedroom or guest suite. The current main bedroom enjoys lovely views towards the Shudrick Valley and benefits from direct access to a Jack and Jill shower room, fitted with a contemporary white suite including a large walk-in shower. The third bedroom is another comfortable double or twin room, perfect for family members or visiting guests.
Outside - The property benefits from sole ownership of the driveway running along the side and rear, as well as a fully enclosed, sun-drenched garden. On the west side of the driveway, there is a planted area with mature shrubs and a practical bin store for keeping the space tidy. The gardens are entirely enclosed with fencing and feature two pedestrian gates providing access from the driveway.
At the rear of the house, a paved sun terrace takes full advantage of the south-facing aspect, offering a sheltered spot ideal for relaxing or dining throughout the day. Beyond the terrace, the garden is low-maintenance and planted with sun-loving herbs and architecturally interesting plants that provide year-round appeal. A variety of young ornamental trees line the boundaries, offering privacy and visual interest, while a timber garden store sits conveniently at the bottom of the garden. The elevated position enhances the outlook, drawing the eye across the garden to the far-reaching views of the Shudrick Valley hills beyond.
