The property is now ready for new owners and has no onward chain – a turnkey offering.

Step Inside

One of this home's greatest attractions is its thoughtfully designed layout, with all accommodation arranged on a single floor. The result is a practical and accessible living environment that adapts beautifully to changing lifestyles and family needs. The welcoming central hallway provides easy access to every room, and at the centre of the property lies the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, perfectly designed for modern family life and entertaining. This is where the current owners spend most of their time, bifolds open and enjoying the gardens. The high-specification kitchen combines style with practicality, featuring durable tiled flooring and an abundance of workspace and storage. Positioned at the rear of the home, it enjoys lovely views over the terrace and outdoor entertaining areas. Bi-fold doors from the dining zone create a seamless connection between inside and out, flooding the room with natural light and opening onto the expansive decking and terrace beyond – the owners make the most of this space, from casual breakfasts to festive family gatherings. The space has welcomed 20 people at times for Christmas dinner parties, a culinary four course feast, easily prepared with the kitchen space. The semi-open-plan sitting room provides a comfortable and inviting space to relax in and is a favourite in the cooler months, the flowing layout ensuring everyone remains connected, whether preparing meals, entertaining guests or enjoying cosy evenings together.

Modern, Efficient & Future Ready

The inclusion of an air source heat pump just 14 months ago, provides an environmentally conscious and energy-efficient heating solution, helping to reduce running costs while supporting a more sustainable way of living. Combined with solar panels and battery storage, two EV chargers, a water softener and the practicality of single-storey accommodation with low-maintenance gardens and excellent accessibility, this is a home perfectly suited to modern lifestyles, whatever your stage of life.
Sleep Well
To the front of the home is a generous double bedroom, used as an office in the past while an additional reception room offers complete flexibility as a home office, dressing room, exercise space, playroom, snug, media room or fifth bedroom. The principal suite is positioned to enjoy peaceful views across the rear garden and benefits from a sophisticated ensuite shower room, creating a private retreat away from the main living spaces. Two further bedrooms provide excellent accommodation for family members or guests, served by the well-appointed family bathroom. The versatile layout offers scope to reconfigure or repurpose rooms to suit individual requirements; one of the bedrooms could easily be incorporated into a hobby room or additional bathroom, subject to personal preference.

Step Outside

Designed with low-maintenance living firmly in mind, the outdoor spaces are every bit as practical as they are attractive. The neat brick-weave driveway provides generous off-road parking for three vehicles and contributes to the property's smart kerb appeal in this quiet but friendly cul-de-sac. The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped with extensive decking and terraced areas, creating multiple zones for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation without the upkeep of a traditional lawn. However, the owners have thoughtfully created pockets of shrubs and greenery to attract wildlife back to the garden, and now watch butterflies, bees and birds enjoying the area too. Summer barbecues for up to 50 people have been catered for, where the decking, bifolds and open plan accommodation all blend together perfectly to create a wonderful entertaining space. Equally quieter moments have been enjoyed with a peaceful morning coffee alfresco or a glass of something cold in the evening. At the far end of the garden, the outside studio/workshop has power to it, providing a great hobby or storage space.
