About
A beautifully presented end-terrace home tucked into the ever-popular Roundswell neighbourhood, offering a stylish and well-appointed interior that's ready to enjoy from day one.
Arriving home couldn't be easier, with a generous tandem driveway to the front comfortably accommodating two or three vehicles.
As you approach, the attractive brick-paved elevation makes a lovely first impression, with pleasant views across the neighbouring countryside adding to the sense of space and setting.
Step inside and you're immediately struck by how well-finished everything feels. The entrance hallway is welcoming and practical, with a handy downstairs WC ideal for both residents and guests.
The living room is a lovely, light-filled space with a thoughtfully designed storage cupboard beneath the stairs, keeping things neat and tidy.
Through the glass-panelled door, the well-appointed kitchen is both stylish and functional, offering plenty of room for white goods and everything you need to make cooking and entertaining a genuine pleasure.
Moving upstairs, you'll find two generously proportioned bedrooms, both comfortably fitting a double bed.
The principal bedroom sits at the front of the home and enjoys a real sense of space, along with its own private en suite bathroom complete with a bath and overhead shower, WC, and wash hand basin, a lovely retreat after a long day.
The second bedroom is equally impressive, with its own en suite shower room, making this home ideal for guests or a growing family. A superb home in a sought-after location.
