Step inside: - Stepping inside the property, you are welcomed into a central entrance hallway that immediately sets the tone for the home.
The hallway provides a natural flow through the ground floor, with a staircase rising to the first floor, a door leading through to the kitchen, and a further door opening into the dining room on your right.

The dining room is a well-proportioned and inviting space, featuring a front-facing window that allows natural light to fill the room.

An attractive archway connects seamlessly through to the main living room, creating an open yet defined layout that is ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.

The living room is particularly light and airy, benefitting from two front-facing windows and centred around a charming corner fireplace, which forms a natural focal point and adds warmth and character.

From here, sliding doors lead through to the conservatory, which is slightly elevated and accessed via shallow steps. This additional reception space enjoys garden views and provides a wonderful link between the house and the outdoors, with direct access to the garden.

The kitchen is dual aspect and thoughtfully arranged, featuring tiled flooring and a good range of wall and base units that provide ample storage. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher. The range-style cooker, which is included in the sale, was bought and installed in early December 2025. A built-in pantry offers further practical storage and discreetly houses the gas central heating boiler. There is also sufficient room to accommodate a dining table and chairs, making this a sociable and functional family kitchen.

To the first floor, the accommodation continues to impress. There are three generous double bedrooms, along with a separate study, all enjoying a frontal aspect that provides pleasant outlooks and excellent natural light.

The principal bedroom benefits from a dual aspect, with views to the front and a side window overlooking the garden, and is further complemented by an en-suite shower room fitted with a shower, wash hand basin and WC.

Completing the first floor is the family bathroom, positioned to the rear of the property and fitted with a three-piece suite comprising a bath, wash hand basin and WC.

Outside - Stepping outside, the property continues to impress with a range of practical and well-planned external features. To the side of the house is a gated driveway providing off-road parking for approximately three to four vehicles, which in turn leads to a detached double garage with twin up-and-over doors to the front. A wrought iron pedestrian gate from the driveway opens into a low-maintenance, courtyard-style front garden, enclosed by a low wall and offering an attractive approach to the property. A further pedestrian gate provides access through to the main garden.

The main garden is fully enclosed and laid predominantly to lawn, with mature hedging and established trees creating a good degree of privacy, colour and screening throughout the seasons. A pathway leads to the far end of the garden, where there is a pergola and seating area, ideal for outdoor relaxation. Beyond this is a large workshop, historically used to house a glider, offering excellent space with ample storage, light and power connected.

Directly at the back of the property accessed from a door from the kitchen, is a handy covered area, ideal for drying clothes on rainy days. With an open aspect to the main garden and door to the driveway, it serves as a convenient thoroughfare between the two.
