About
Positioned at the end of the road and set slightly back from the street, this attractive three-bedroom detached home enjoys a pleasant sense of privacy within the popular Backwell Vale development.
Approaching the property, there is driveway parking, a single garage and useful side access to the garden.
An attractive porch leads into a generous entrance hallway with built-in storage and a useful utility room, which was originally a downstairs cloakroom and could easily be reinstated if desired.
The main living space is bright and welcoming. A generous lounge with a bay window flows through double doors into the dining area and kitchen beyond.
The doors provide flexibility, allowing the space to be opened up when entertaining or closed for cosy evenings and additional privacy. There is also access to the kitchen directly from the hallway.
The kitchen is modern and well-equipped with white units, integrated appliances and neutral finishes.
It offers pleasant views of the garden and direct access to the outside, while also connecting conveniently to the dining area.
Upstairs, the landing benefits from a window allowing natural light to fill the space, along with a storage cupboard housing a recently installed combination boiler.
The property offers three bedrooms in total. The main bedroom is bright and comfortable with built-in wardrobes and an en suite shower room.
The second bedroom also benefits from built-in storage, while the third bedroom provides a versatile space that could work well as a child’s bedroom, guest room or home office.
A family bathroom completes the first floor. To the rear is a pretty and private garden which is not overlooked.
It features a lawn, a patio area accessed from the kitchen and planted borders with a mix of shrubs and trees creating a pleasant outdoor space. There is also rear access into the garage.
The property has benefited from a number of thoughtful improvements in recent years, including a recently fitted boiler, cavity wall insulation, external front and back door and the addition of an electric car charging point.
