Glazed doors open out onto the garden, inviting the outside in. Practicality is equally well considered, with a separate utility room offering additional workspace, complete with a stainless steel sink and drainer, further appliance space, and a four-burner gas hob with oven. Completing the ground floor is a well-appointed WC, featuring a vanity wash hand basin.

And so, the story ascends…Upstairs, the next chapter unfolds with five beautifully appointed bedrooms, each ready to play its part, whether as restful retreats, lively children’s quarters, or refined spaces to work and create. One chamber, graced with a charming bay window, offers not only light and outlook but the promise of something more… with generous storage areas that whisper of future potential, perhaps a private en-suite or a most indulgent dressing room (STPP) But it is the master bedroom that takes centre stage…A room of commanding proportions, where comfort meets quiet luxury. Its en-suite reads like a list of indulgences, his and hers basins, a freestanding bath perfect for long, leisurely evenings, and a walk-in glazed shower that brings a touch of the contemporary to this character-filled home. A substantial storage area completes the scene, ensuring elegance never comes at the cost of practicality.Elsewhere, the family bathroom stands ready to serve the household with ease, featuring a P-shaped bath and shower combination, WC, and vanity wash hand basin. And for those occasions when more is required, a further shower room provides a sleek and modern addition, boasting a vanity wash hand basin.

Yet every great story needs its setting…To the rear, the garden offers a green escape, mainly laid to lawn with a patio area perfectly placed for gatherings, morning coffees, or evenings that stretch long into dusk. A space where laughter carries, and memories are made.To the front, the home announces itself with confidence.
