You approach the property via a block paved driveway with an area of front lawn and a covered entrance porch providing shelter as you arrive home. Entering the property, you are welcomed into a bright entrance hallway finished with attractive patterned floor tiles in soft neutral tones. The tiles continue the same design theme found in the conservatory, creating a lovely sense of continuity throughout the ground floor whilst using a contrasting colour palette. The hallway provides access to the principal ground floor rooms before continuing through to both the kitchen and dining room.

Located further along the hallway is the kitchen. This bright and practical space features light grey gloss wall and base units, contrasting dark grey worktops and neutral tiled splashbacks, creating a contemporary finish. A grey sink sits beneath the front-facing window overlooking the driveway and there is an excellent amount of worktop preparation space and storage. Integrated appliances include a gas hob with stainless steel extractor hood above, electric oven, washer/dryer, full height fridge and undercounter freezer. The recently installed combi boiler is also neatly positioned within the kitchen.

Adjacent to the kitchen is the dining room. This versatile reception room benefits from attractive wood effect flooring, neutral décor and a large window overlooking the front of the property which allows plenty of natural light to fill the room. There is ample space for a family dining table and chairs whilst still offering flexibility to incorporate a home office or reading area if desired.

The living room is located at the rear of the property and is a fantastic space for relaxing or entertaining. This generous room benefits from soft neutral carpeting, light coloured walls and an attractive feature fireplace creating a natural focal point. There is ample room for a range of sofas and additional furniture whilst remaining wonderfully bright thanks to the glazed double doors leading into the conservatory. The staircase to the first floor rises from one corner of the living room, helping to create a sociable yet well-designed layout.

The conservatory provides a superb additional reception room which significantly enhances the ground floor accommodation. Constructed with exposed brick walls, attractive wood effect window frames and decorative patterned tiled flooring in complementary tones to the hallway, this versatile room enjoys views across the rear garden from multiple windows.
