Before entering the front door, you will notice a red brick façade that conceals a cleverly built in storage area.
Thoughtfully designed to blend seamlessly into the front of the house for a sleek aesthetic, it offers ample space for housing tools and neatly stores the utility meters.
At the rear, the property enjoys a sunny, thoughtfully landscaped garden created for low maintenance outdoor enjoyment.
Directly off the main living area lies a wide stone paved terrace perfect for alfresco dining and summer entertaining, leading onto an artificial lawn, gravelled pathways, and decorative borders.
