About
A well-proportioned three bedroom end of terrace family home offering approximately 860 sq ft of accommodation, together with a generous rear garden and the significant benefit of a driveway providing off-road parking.
The ground floor is centred around an impressive open-plan sitting/dining room measuring approximately 21'10" in length.
This bright and sociable reception space provides ample room for both lounge and dining furniture, with windows and French doors bringing in plenty of natural light and providing direct access to the rear garden.
The separate kitchen extends to approximately 18'2" and is fitted with a range of shaker-style units, timber-effect work surfaces, tiled splashbacks and space for a range-style cooker and further appliances.
Its practical proportions provide good preparation and storage space for everyday family use. Upstairs, the first-floor landing gives access to three bedrooms.
The principal bedroom is particularly generous at approximately 14'11" in length and benefits from fitted storage, while the remaining bedrooms offer flexibility for children, guests or home working.
The family bathroom is fitted with a white suite including a bath with shower over.
Outside, the property enjoys a good size rear garden, predominantly laid to lawn with a patio area adjoining the house, established borders and a substantial timber outbuilding/shed positioned towards the rear.
Being an end of terrace home also gives the property a more open feel than many comparable mid-terrace houses.
To the front is a sizeable driveway providing valuable off-road parking, completing what is a practical and versatile home ideally suited to first-time buyers, young families or purchasers requiring additional working-from-home space.

Road connections also provide convenient access towards the A1060, A414 and A12.
