Nicely set back from Lintzford Road, along the driveway, the house is ready to move into and is offered with no onward chain.
It has double glazing and gas central heating, with the boiler having been fitted in 2019.
The ground floor comprises a welcoming living room with wooden flooring and a fireplace with wood burning stove, providing a warming focal point.
A door leads through to the open-plan kitchen diner featuring an exposed original wooden beam, country-cottage style white units and wood-effect worktops, an electric oven and gas hob with extractor over, slate-tiled flooring and a stable-style composite door to the rear garden.
French doors lead through from the dining area into a conservatory, to the side, which benefits from underfloor heating and provides additional versatile living space with plenty of natural light and also has slate-tiled flooring and access out to the rear patio garden.
A convenient ground floor W.C. - off the living room – is tidily tucked away under the stairs.
To the first floor, there are two bedrooms, including a spacious main bedroom with fitted wardrobes, and a contemporary shower room with a walk-in shower cubicle, finished to a modern standard with a wash basin and W.C.
and a built-in cupboard.
