The kitchen
As the heart of the home, the kitchen offers generous work surfaces and timber cabinetry around a centrally positioned range-style cooker with extractor. A double sink sits beneath a window overlooking the garden and there is space for a table in the breakfast area. Sliding doors open to the terrace outside and a doorway leads into the dining area, making this a practical room for family life and entertaining.

The living room
A welcoming central reception room ideal for everyday family time and entertaining features a traditional fireplace with an lpg stove set within a carved mantel. A broad bay window overlooks the front aspect and an open archway leads into the dining room. The room's layout allows flexible seating arrangements while maintaining a cosy feel around the fireplace.

The dining room
Designed for family meals and gatherings, the dining room sits just off the living space and enjoys views over the rear garden through a wide bay window. The proportions accommodate a good-sized table and chairs, and a door provides direct access to the kitchen. This arrangement makes hosting guests straightforward while keeping the dining area slightly separate from the main living area.

The hallway and cloakroom
Entering through the front door, the hallway sets the tone for the home and gives access to the principal reception rooms. A staircase rises to the first floor and an internal door leads through to the kitchen. Just off the hall, the cloakroom is fitted with a wash basin and WC, providing practical facilities for guests.

The primary bedroom
Occupying much of the first floor depth, the principal bedroom provides generous sleeping and seating areas, with two dormer windows bringing in garden views. A door leads through to its own en suite and there is space for free-standing wardrobes and dressing furniture. The neutral décor and proportions create a restful retreat away from the main living spaces.

The primary en suite
Adjoining the main bedroom, the en suite is fitted with a curved-glass shower enclosure, pedestal wash basin and WC. A window set within the sloping ceiling provides natural light and a heated towel rail ensures comfort. Tiling around the shower and basin enhances the practical finish of this well appointed space.

The second bedroom
A comfortable double bedroom with a dormer window overlooking the front of the home offers ample space for a double bed and bedside furniture. The room's simple layout and soft décor provide a calm sleeping environment.

The third bedroom
The third bedroom is arranged as a children's room, accommodating bunk beds with ease. A dormer window provides an outlook across the front and a built-in cupboard offers useful storage. Neutral tones make this a cosy space for younger members of the household or as a small guest bedroom.

The fourth bedroom
The fourth bedroom functions as a cosy single room or study, with space for a single bed and occasional chair. The dormer window draws the eye outside. This room could serve well as a nursery, guest room or dedicated home office.

The bathroom
Serving the remaining bedrooms, the family bathroom includes a panelled bath with mixer tap and shower attachment, a pedestal basin and a WC. A chrome towel rail provides warmth and a dormer window brings in light. Part-tiled walls and a tiled floor ensure ease of maintenance in this practical space.

The garden
At the rear, the west-facing garden is a highlight of the property, with a large lawn bordered by colourful planting and mature shrubs. A paved terrace off the kitchen provides space for outdoor dining and steps lead up to a vegetable plot and shed. The garden feels private thanks to established hedging and trees and offers plenty of room for children to play and for keen gardeners to cultivate.

The driveway and parking
To the front of the home, a generous block paved driveway provides off-street parking for several vehicles. Low brick walls and well-stocked borders give a sense of enclosure and a set of shallow steps rise to the front door, creating an attractive approach.

The fee will be retained by Andrew Grant in the event that you the Buyer withdraws from the purchase or does not Exchange within 6 months of the fee being received other than for one or more of the following reasons:

The reservation fee will be 0.5% of the accepted offer price for offers below £800,000 and 1% for offers of £800,000 or over. This fee, unless specified otherwise, is payable upon acceptance by the vendor of an offer from a buyer and completion of an assessment of the buyer’s financial status and ability to proceed.

For example, where the buyer declares themselves as a cash buyer but are in fact relying on an unsecured sale of their property. The reservation fee will not be refunded where there is an inability on the part of the Buyer to raise any required mortgage after the Memorandum of Sale is completed.

Once the reservation fee has been paid, any renegotiation of the price stated in the memorandum of sale for any reason other than those covered in points 1 to 3 above will lead to the reservation fee being retained. A further fee will be levied on any subsequent reduced offer that is accepted by the vendor. This further fee will be subject to the same conditions that prevail for all reservation fees outlined above.

The Compliance and Verification Fee becomes due immediately upon acceptance of the offer and receipt of the reservation fee and shall become non-refundable once any compliance or verification work has commenced, irrespective of whether the transaction subsequently proceeds to Exchange of Contracts or completion.

Where all or part of the reservation fee is refundable under the reservation fee terms, any Compliance and Verification Fees incurred shall first be deducted from the monies returned.
