About the Property
Ground Floor
The welcoming entrance hall features a cloakroom and study, offering useful space for coats and shoes or home working, while a split-level staircase rises to the first floor. The kitchen/dining room provides a generous and sociable space, with the kitchen fitted with wooden cabinetry, a tiled splashback and exposed brickwork. A peninsula incorporates a dishwasher and sink with drainer, whilst a freestanding double oven and four-ring hob completes the kitchen. To the rear, the dining area is particularly light and inviting, with patio doors opening directly out to the garden. Set off the kitchen, a utility room provides further storage, appliance space and an airing cupboard. The sitting room is a comfortable and welcoming reception room, with a front-aspect window and a gas fire set within a stone surround. An opening to the rear leads through to the adjoining sunroom, which is currently used as a bedroom but offers superb versatility as an additional reception room.

First Floor
The galleried landing gives access to four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a good-sized double with a rear aspect, built-in wardrobes and an ensuite shower room. Bedroom two is another double with built-in wardrobes and a rear aspect, while bedroom three is a further double overlooking the front. Bedroom four is a single bedroom to the front aspect. The family bathroom is fitted with a bath with shower over, WC, basin and an obscured window providing natural light.

Outside
The property is approached via a low-walled frontage with planted borders and lawn, with a storm porch sheltering the front door. Double metal gates to the side open onto a generous driveway, providing parking for several vehicles and access to the substantial garage, which benefits from an electric up-and-over door, power, lighting and a pedestrian door to the rear garden. The rear garden is a particularly generous space, with a broad patio extending across the rear of the property. This provides excellent space for outdoor dining and entertaining, whilst also offering the flexibility for additional parking if required. Steps lead up to a further patio area, with a greenhouse, shed and lawn beyond. The garden also benefits from established vegetable beds and a separate allotment area towards the far end, complete with additional planting beds and additional greenhouse.
