About
Approached via a pristine, newly laid resin driveway offering designated allocated and visitor parking, this impressive ground-floor apartment benefits from its own private entrance and offers a fantastic alternative to a traditional bungalow, with the convenience of single-level living and the added benefit of a private rear garden.
The front door opens directly into a spacious, newly constructed sunroom.
Positioned to enjoy pleasant views towards the nearby green, it is designed as a versatile second reception space – the ideal spot to sit back, relax, and watch the world go by.
It comes fully equipped for year-round comfort with laminate wood-effect flooring, a central heating radiator, multiple floor and wall power sockets, and double-glazed tilt and turn windows fitted with tailored blinds.
From the sunroom, a characterful stable door leads into the welcoming entrance hallway, which includes fitted storage cupboards, a hall bench, and an extra built-in storage closet.

Well equipped for daily life and entertaining, it includes a gas range cooker, Neff extractor fan, an integrated Bosch dishwasher, and space for a double-height fridge/freezer and a drinks fridge.
French doors off of the kitchen open straight into the sunroom, while a secondary external door to the westerly side offers direct access to the driveway and the private rear garden.
Across the hallway from the kitchen is the elegant living room which provides a cosy yet sophisticated sanctuary, fully carpeted and anchored by a stylish feature electric fireplace flanked by fitted storage units and a built in cupboard.
Southerly-aspect French doors open directly into the sunroom; when opened in tandem with the kitchen's French doors, the entire front wing transforms into a magnificent, interconnected social hub.

The accommodation continues with two impressive, well-proportioned double bedrooms situated off the main hall.
Both bedrooms benefit from high-quality tilt & turn windows with fitted blinds, fitted wardrobes and feature French doors that open directly onto the private rear garden.
The private rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped for effortless, low-maintenance living.
It features planters, high-quality Cladco composite decking leading to an artificial lawn, flanked by a wooden pergola designed for outdoor furniture and alfresco dining.
Outfitted with external power sockets, ambient lighting, and a handy storage shed, the garden is fully enclosed with gated side access returning to the front.
