About
GUIDE PRICE £825,000 - £850,000 Tucked away at the end of a small cul-de-sac just off the ever-popular Lexden Road, this impressive four-bedroom detached home was individually built by the current owners in 2018 and offers spacious, modern living throughout.

A modern family bathroom, complete with both bath and separate shower, serves the remaining bedrooms.
