The kitchen offers plenty of storage in fitted units, as well as a breakfast bar and a range cooker, while the adjoining utility room has further space for appliances and home storage.

There is also a dining area with space for a family dining table and, through an open, squared archway, a light and airy family room with a contemporary corner log burner and bi-fold doors opening onto the splendid gardens and creating a connection to the patio area.

On the first floor you will find four well-presented double bedrooms. These include the principal bedroom, which benefits from built-in storage and an en suite bathroom with an over-bath shower.

One further bedroom has built-in storage, while there is a dressing room off the landing, with additional fitted wardrobes.

The family bathroom is also located on the first floor, with its freestanding bathtub and separate shower unit.

At the front of the property, a five-bar wooden gate opens onto a block-paved driveway, with plenty of parking space and a further gated entrance opening to the side, which leads to the detached garaging block for further parking and storage space, which has a pool room or workshop at its rear.

The front gardens have an area of lawn, while at the rear there are sunny west-facing gardens, which extend to approximately 100ft and include a patio area across the back of the house, as well as a stunning, kidney-shaped heated swimming pool with its own sun terrace.

Beyond the pool there is an area of lawn with border fencing, beds filled with various flowering perennials and, at the end of the garden, a chicken coop.
