It's beautifully planted with established borders, a generous lawn for children and pets to enjoy, plus a decking area that's perfect for summer barbecues and alfresco dining.

At the front, there's ample driveway parking for several cars, an EV charging point, along with access to the integral garage with power, light and plumbing for a washing machine: ideal for storage, or with potential to convert into another room if desired.
