About
If you’re looking for a home that feels instantly welcoming, beautifully cared for and genuinely ready to walk into, this could be just the one.
This attractive detached property is only linked to the neighbouring house by the garages, giving it that lovely detached feel, and from the moment you arrive, you can see just how immaculately it has been looked after.
5 Simmerson Drive needs to be viewed to be appreciated.
There’s a smart frontage with a little garden and driveway parking, and stepping through the front door you’re greeted by a spacious and beautifully presented hallway.
It’s the sort of entrance that immediately makes you feel at home, with a gorgeous colour palette and warm, considered décor running throughout the property.
The hallway also gives access to a handy downstairs WC, the staircase to the first floor and the main living accommodation.
To the left is a fantastic lounge and dining space, flooded with natural light from the box bay window to the front, and large window and door to the rear.
It’s a lovely, generous room with plenty of space for both relaxing and dining, and it’s easy to imagine family evenings, entertaining friends or simply opening those doors on a sunny day and letting the outside in.
The modern kitchen is beautifully appointed and opens into another really useful seating area with French doors that open directly onto the garden.
Depending on how you like to live, this could become a cosy everyday sitting space, a dining area or even somewhere to enjoy your morning coffee.
And with such a large main lounge, there’s so much flexibility here. You could have a living and dining room, use the kitchen area for dining, or create a relaxed kitchen/living space.
It’s a home that can easily adapt to the way you want to live.
There’s also a really handy door from the kitchen into the single garage, making everyday life that little bit easier and providing useful storage as well as space for a car.
Upstairs, there are two excellent double bedrooms and a lovely single bedroom, all beautifully presented and ready for you to simply move straight in.
The family bathroom is equally impressive, with both a separate shower and a bath.
So, whether you’re looking for a quick, refreshing shower in the morning or fancy sinking into a lovely bubble bath at the end of the day, you’ve got both options!
Outside, the rear garden is a real surprise and gets the sunshine from morning to night.
It’s a fantastic size, with lots and lots of space, yet has been thoughtfully designed to be wonderfully easy to maintain.
Predominantly laid to decking and attractive patio areas, there’s plenty of room for outdoor seating, dining, entertaining and simply enjoying the sunshine, without spending your weekends cutting lawns.
All in all, this is a beautifully cared-for home with a lovely sense of warmth, space and personality.
It’s practical, flexible and incredibly easy to live in, with three bedrooms, generous living accommodation, a modern kitchen, downstairs WC, garage, driveway parking and a fabulous garden.
Honestly, there’s nothing to do here other than walk through the door, put your boxes down, pop the kettle on and start enjoying your new home.
