    Entrance to this lovely family home is via a part-glazed front door, which opens into a welcoming entrance hall, an ideal space for coats and shoes. From here, two further doors lead to the ground floor cloakroom/WC and the impressive open-plan living space, which immediately sets the tone for the property. Neutral tones and tasteful décor enhance the bright and airy feel throughout. The living area is a superb open space, featuring bi-folding doors that open out to the garden, further enhancing the space while offering stunning views across the surrounding fields, Fleet Nature Reserve, and seascape. Wood-effect flooring complements the living area, while tiled flooring defines the kitchen/dining room.

Integrated appliances include a washing machine, fridge/freezer, and dishwasher, along with a cupboard discreetly housing the boiler. The kitchen is finished with inset lighting, a 5-ring gas oven, and a door providing access to the rear garden. Stairs rise to the first floor, where the style and décor continue throughout. The landing provides access to three double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from double wardrobes, an additional storage cupboard, attractive sea views from the front aspect, and is served by an en-suite shower room.
