About
Well-presented flexible four-bedroom home in a peaceful residential location 47 Wilson Place is a well-presented four-bedroom detached home offering bright, flexible accommodation and a private rear garden.
A welcoming entrance hallway leads through to the sitting/dining room positioned to the rear of the property.
This bright room benefits from sliding doors that provide excellent natural light and open directly onto the rear garden.
The kitchen has been recently replaced and features attractive shaker-style units, along with a range of integrated and freestanding appliances.
A door from the kitchen provides direct access to the garden, adding further practicality.
The former garage has been thoughtfully converted to create an additional room, currently used as a fourth bedroom, though equally suitable as a home office, playroom, or second sitting room.
Completing the ground floor is a useful WC. Upstairs, the principal bedroom is located to the rear and enjoys an outlook over the garden, along with fitted wardrobes and a modern en-suite shower room.
Two further bedrooms are also located on this level, along with a family bathroom. Additional storage is provided by a landing cupboard and access to the attic.
Externally, the property benefits from a driveway to the front with a small garden area.
To the rear is a fully enclosed and not overlooked garden, designed for easy maintenance and laid mainly to lawn, with the addition of two large sheds providing excellent storage.
