About
As one of the original show homes, this superb four bedroom detached family home offers in our opinion an enviable position on the Galleywood Paddocks development.
One of just four detached properties set within a shared gravel drive, the property is presented to an excellent standard throughout and has been thoughtfully extended and recently redecorated internally and externally by its current owner.
A particular feature is the vast open plan kitchen / orangery and adjoining utility.
Surrounding the rear of the property and to the side are impeccably kept gardens with the side garden offering a lovely private terrace which leads directly from the orangery's two sets of full width sliding doors.
To the front there is ample off street parking leading to detached double garage with twin opening doors. Viewing is strongly advised.
