Further benefiting a beautiful and secluded rear garden with home office and offered to the market with no onward chain.

You enter the property via a brick and oak-framed porch, creating a practical boot room-style entrance before stepping through the main front door into a welcoming hallway.

Immediately to your left is a delightful living room featuring wood effect flooring, an inset log burner with an exposed brick surround, and attractive views over the front garden.

At the end of the hallway is a well-appointed three-piece shower room, before the home opens into the stunning open-plan kitchen/dining/living space – undoubtedly the heart of the property.

The kitchen is positioned neatly within the corner of the room and is fitted with a range of base and eye-level units, an integrated double oven/microwave, dishwasher, and five-ring gas hob.

A peninsula island separates the kitchen from the dining area, providing additional storage and worktop space, while a recessed alcove offers the perfect place for an American-style fridge freezer.

The spacious dining and living area is centred around an electric log burner, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Two sets of double doors open directly onto the patio and rear garden, seamlessly connecting the indoor and outdoor spaces and making this an exceptional area for entertaining family and friends.

Stairs rise from the hallway to the first-floor landing, where there are three generous double bedrooms.

Two are positioned to the rear of the property and benefit from built-in storage, while the principal bedroom overlooks the front garden and also features fitted wardrobes.

The bedrooms are served by a modern three-piece family bathroom, complemented by the convenient ground floor shower room.

Outside, the rear garden also benefits from a substantial home office, complete with electricity and hard-wired internet access, providing a versatile space ideal for home working, a gym, studio or hobby room.

The property is approached via a pair of traditional five-bar gates, complemented by a charming picket fence and mature hedgerow frontage.

The gates open onto a gravel area, providing access to the front entrance and a secure side gate leading through to the rear garden.

The rear garden is a real feature of the property and has been thoughtfully landscaped and is predominantly laid to lawn, with a spacious patio adjoining the kitchen/dining/living area, creating the perfect space for outdoor entertaining.

A decked pathway meanders through an attractive section of the garden, featuring well-stocked planting beds, colourful flowers and a variety of small trees, before leading onto a gravel path that provides access to the home office and the larger lawned area beyond.

The garden is enclosed by a combination of secure fencing and mature hedgerows, offering a good degree of privacy, and is further enhanced by two useful storage sheds.
