The colour palette is a blend of warm neutral colours in both the living areas and the bedrooms.
The overall result is a lovely warm welcoming family home that wraps itself around you from the minute you walk in the door. Downstairs, the main living area on one side is predominantly open plan.
At the front, there's a spacious lounge that opens into the large Shaker style kitchen which runs the full width of the back of the house.
This could be the hub of the house as it is a great space where you can just catch up on the day's events or entertain friends whilst preparing delicious meals.
It has an excellent range of pale grey base and wall units, ample worktop space, an island / breakfast bar and integrated appliances, including fridge / freezer, dishwasher and 18 bottle wine cooler.
A conservatory has been added which is used as a dining room. From here, steps lead down to the enclosed sunny garden which is perfect for relaxing and entertaining.
On the other side of the entrance hall, the original single garage had been converted into a large reception room offering very versatile space, e.g. Family room, play / games room or office.

Outside The house is set back off Helme Lane and accessed via a driveway that is shared with neighbouring properties.

This garden is south facing so is the perfect place to enjoy balmy summer evenings and to entertain family and friends for BBQs.
Nearest the house, the flagged patio offers plenty of space for garden furniture.
At the bottom, in one corner, and covered by a wooden pergola, there is plenty more space for garden sofas around the stone firepit.
In between these two areas, another pergola covers an area that currently hosts a hot tub. A neat lawn bordered on two sides with shrubs plus a small pond completes the garden landscaping.
There is also an external tap and power socket plus a very useful shed tucked away on the other side of the house.
