A beautifully presented and extended, semi-detached home blending timeless character with contemporary design, as well as generous and versatile living spaces which are perfectly suited to modern family life.
With three bedrooms, driveway parking, a pretty rear garden and an impressive workshop with potential for additional accommodation, the property enjoys a particularly appealing setting backing directly onto open fields.
The accommodation begins with a spacious entrance hallway which provides access to all ground-floor rooms, including a convenient downstairs W/C.
To the front of the house sits a separate living room, featuring stripped wooden flooring and a traditional carved wooden fireplace that creates a striking focal point and a wonderfully cosy atmosphere.
The true centrepiece of the home is the impressive rear extension, which forms a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and family room.
Designed as a multifunctional space with clearly defined zones while retaining a strong sense of flow and openness, it is ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
The contemporary kitchen runs along one side and is complemented by a central island providing casual seating and additional storage, along with fully integrated appliances, including a double oven and microwave for a sleek, streamlined finish.
The adjoining family area offers ample space for comfortable seating and is centred around a charming log burner, creating a warm and inviting place to relax while enjoying views across the garden.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with two generous double bedrooms, almost equal in size and both featuring attractive fireplaces that enhance the home's period charm.
The third bedroom is a well-proportioned single, ideal as a child's room, nursery or home office.
The family bathroom is fitted with a stylish white suite, including a bath with overhead tiling, providing a smart and practical space for daily use.
Another advantage is the potential to extend into the loft to create an additional bedroom, like some of the neighbouring properties have done.
Outside, the rear garden offers a lovely place to unwind, with a generous patio area which leads up to an area of lawn.
The garden enjoys a tranquil setting, with open views across neighbouring fields.
An impressive 29ft workshop sits within the garden and presents exciting potential for conversion into additional accommodation or a home office and offers both power and broadband connection.
Altogether, this is a superb family home combining character, contemporary living and a wonderful semi-rural outlook-perfect for those seeking space, style and versatility both inside and out.
