With its distinctive red-brick exterior, contrasting dark weatherboarding and prominent detached position, the property has an attractive contemporary appearance that immediately sets it apart.

The aerial photographs also demonstrate just how well positioned the house is within this modern development, surrounded by attractive homes while remaining within easy reach of open countryside and the many amenities for which Bishop's Stortford is so highly regarded.

Internally, the accommodation extends to approximately 86.6 sq m / 932 sq ft and has been arranged with modern family living very much in mind.

Light, neutral decoration throughout combines with generous windows to create a wonderfully bright and airy home.

Ground Floor The front door opens into a welcoming entrance hallway, providing access to the principal ground-floor accommodation together with the staircase rising to the first floor.

To the front of the property is an excellent reception room measuring approximately 12'9" x 12'2" (3.89m x 3.71m).

This is a genuinely generous living room with ample space for substantial sofas and additional occasional furniture.

A large window overlooks the front of the property and allows plenty of natural light into the room, while the wood-effect flooring and neutral décor provide a clean, contemporary finish.

It is a comfortable room in which to relax at the end of the day, but equally offers the proportions required for a busy family.

The real heart of this home, however, is undoubtedly the superb open-plan kitchen/dining room, measuring approximately 18'1" x 9'0" (5.51m x 2.74m).

Running across the rear of the property, this bright and sociable space has been cleverly designed to combine cooking, dining and entertaining while maintaining clearly defined areas.

The kitchen itself is fitted with a comprehensive range of white wall and base units complemented by contrasting work surfaces and tiled splashbacks.

There is generous preparation space, an integrated oven with gas hob and extractor above, sink positioned beneath the rear-facing window, dishwasher and space for further appliances.

A peninsula creates additional worktop and storage space while providing a subtle division between the kitchen and dining areas without compromising the open-plan feel.

The dining area comfortably accommodates a full-size family dining table and chairs and is enhanced by a bold feature wall.

Most importantly, French doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating a lovely connection between the internal and external spaces and making this an excellent room for entertaining during the warmer months.

Whether it is breakfast before the school run, dinner with the family or friends gathering for a summer barbecue, this is a room designed to be enjoyed.

Adjoining the kitchen is something that is particularly useful in a family home - a separate utility room.

Providing additional worktop and storage space together with provision for washing and drying appliances, the utility allows the practical necessities of everyday life to be kept away from the main kitchen.

The wall-mounted boiler is also positioned here. The ground floor is completed by a convenient cloakroom/WC, fitted with a white suite comprising WC and pedestal wash hand basin.

First Floor The staircase rises to a bright landing from which all three bedrooms and the family bathroom are accessed.

The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, measuring approximately 12'10" x 10'9" (3.91m x 3.28m).

Large enough to comfortably accommodate a double bed together with substantial wardrobes and additional bedroom furniture, this is an excellent main bedroom.

The wide window brings in plenty of natural light and adds to the property's characteristically bright interior.

Importantly, the principal bedroom also benefits from its own private en-suite shower room, fitted with an enclosed shower cubicle, pedestal wash hand basin and WC.

For a three-bedroom family home, the combination of an en-suite, separate family bathroom and downstairs WC is a particularly useful feature.

Bedroom two measures approximately 9'6" x 8'5" (2.90m x 2.57m) and is another comfortable bedroom with space for a bed and accompanying furniture.

Bedroom three measures approximately 9'0" x 8'5" (2.74m x 2.57m) and offers excellent flexibility.

As demonstrated by the current arrangement, there is space not simply for bedroom furniture but also for a desk, making it equally suited to a child's bedroom, guest room or home office.

The family bathroom serves bedrooms two and three and is fitted with a white suite comprising panelled bath, pedestal wash hand basin and WC.

Extensive white tiling keeps the room light and contemporary, while a window provides natural ventilation. Outside The additional photographs really highlight another major attraction of this home.

Being detached and positioned towards a bend within Ambrose Close gives the property a particularly appealing presence within the street scene, enhanced by its red-brick elevations and distinctive dark-clad gable.

There is an open frontage surrounding the house. To the rear is a surprisingly generous and extremely usable private enclosed garden measuring approximately 23'5" x 19'8" (7.14m x 5.99m).

The garden is enclosed by timber fencing, providing a secure environment particularly suited to families with younger children or pets.

There is a substantial lawned area together with paved pathways and a seating area towards the rear, providing space for garden furniture and outdoor entertaining.

A timber garden shed provides useful external storage, while the French doors from the kitchen/dining room ensure the garden feels like a genuine extension of the living accommodation.

There is also gated access to the side.

The garden's relatively broad proportions are another advantage: It provides enough space for children to play, summer entertaining, gardening or simply relaxing outdoors, while remaining manageable for those who do not want the maintenance associated with an excessively large plot.
