About
A well-presented and modern four-bedroom link detached property, offering versatile and well-proportioned accommodation arranged over two floors.
Situated in a popular residential area, this attractive home is ideal for families, upsizers and downsizers alike, with the added benefit of a garage, off-street parking and a private garden with patio area.
The current owners have undertaken a programme of renovation and remodelling, creating a stylish and contemporary home that is ready to move straight into.
The property also benefits from planning approval for an extension, providing an exciting opportunity for a new owner to further enhance and adapt the accommodation to suit their individual requirements, subject to the relevant consents and conditions.
The property is accessed via a side entrance, opening into a welcoming hallway.
Directly ahead is the spacious kitchen/dining room, fitted with a range of modern units and integrated appliances, providing a practical and sociable space for everyday family life and entertaining.
To the left is the main living room, offering a comfortable and inviting reception space.
Also accessed from the hallway is a versatile additional room, currently suited to use as a study or home office, but equally well suited as a playroom, snug or occasional fifth bedroom, subject to the buyer’s requirements.
A downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation. Upstairs, there are four good-sized bedrooms, three of which benefit from built-in storage, together with a modern family bathroom.
Outside, the property enjoys a well-maintained garden with a patio area, providing a pleasant space for outdoor dining and relaxation.
There is also off-street parking and an attached garage, which benefits from access to the rear via the garden.
The property is presented in modern condition throughout, with tasteful contemporary décor, double glazing and gas central heating, making it a genuine turnkey home ready for its new owners to move straight into.
The benefit of planning approval for an extension further adds to the property’s appeal, offering scope for future enlargement and personalisation.
Offering flexible accommodation, generous bedroom provision, useful additional living space and the potential for further improvement through the approved extension, this is a particularly appealing home for a wide range of buyers and represents an excellent opportunity in this popular residential location.
