A separate snug provides a cosy and versatile reception space, ideal for informal gatherings or relaxation. From here, double doors lead through to the heart of the home, an expansive open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area. Designed with modern family living in mind, the kitchen features a sophisticated palette of contrasting cabinetry of crafted solid wood and quality worktops, complemented by a generous central island with breakfast bar, integrated appliances, and ambient lighting. Roof lights and large glazed doors flood the space with natural light, seamlessly connecting the interiors with the garden beyond. The velux windows in the kitchen are fully electric and automated as are the blinds. In addition there is underfloor heating in the kitchen, dining room, bathroom and Principal bedroom ensuite.

A practical utility room with underfloor heating, integral washing machine with a space for a dryer and WC complete the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor is approached via an elegant spindle staircase, leading to a luxurious principal suite. This serene bedroom is enhanced by a bay window, extensive fitted wardrobes, and a stylish en suite shower room. Two further bedrooms on this level are served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom, featuring period-style fittings, including a freestanding claw-foot bath and traditional tiling.

The second floor offers two additional double bedrooms, both light-filled and enjoying elevated views. One benefits from a contemporary en suite shower room, making it ideal for older children or guests.

Externally, the rear garden is both generous and private, with high boundaries, a large paved terrace for entertaining, and a well-maintained lawn. This exceptional outdoor space offers a superb backdrop for family life and al fresco dining.
