Description
Stepping through the secure wooden front door, you are greeted by a welcoming entrance hallway featuring tiled flooring that flows seamlessly into the ground floor living spaces. This level is designed for ultimate functionality, offering a modern cloakroom with integrated storage, a useful understairs cupboard, and a dedicated utility room. The utility space keeps laundry tucked away, providing plumbing for a washing machine, a stainless-steel sink, and external access to the garden. At the heart of the ground floor is a bright, open-plan kitchen and dining room fitted with wall and base level units with work surface over. Integrated appliances include an eye-level Electrolux oven and grill, plus a 4-ring gas hob with an extractor hood over. There is also ample space for a freestanding dishwasher and a fridge-freezer. French doors open from the dining area directly onto the rear garden, creating a perfect indoor-outdoor flow for entertaining.
The first floor hosts a bright and airy, sitting room benefitting a triple-aspect, filling the room with plentiful natural light. Bedroom three is also located on this floor and could be used as a study room. The principal bedroom is found on the second floor; it is double in size and benefits from a dual aspect, framing picturesque views of the rolling countryside towards Came Down and Maiden Castle. This room further boasts built-in wardrobes and offers direct access to the family bathroom via a Jack & Jill arrangement. The bathroom is fitted with a panel-enclosed bath with an overhead shower, tiled splashbacks, an extractor fan, and a vanity washbasin. Bedroom two is a comfortable single complete with a fitted storage cupboard and courtyard views. Additionally, an airing cupboard on the landing houses the hot water tank.
Externally, the property features a neat front patio secured by gates. Within the courtyard, a bricked wall sits just within the boundary, decorated by mature flowering plants. The private, south-facing rear garden is a fully enclosed oasis, combining a patio and lawn with a side path leading to the side of the house. Steps lead down toward the double garage, guiding you past mature, productive apple and plum trees, vibrant berry plantings, a raised vegetable patch, and an established pond. A greenhouse completes this idyllic outdoor space.
