This beautifully presented and characterful three-bedroom detached family home dates back to the 1920s and effortlessly combines period charm with thoughtfully designed modern living. Having undergone substantial improvements and extensions in recent years, the property offers generous and versatile accommodation throughout while retaining many of its original features.

Upon entering, you are welcomed into a spacious entrance hall with access to the principal ground floor accommodation. To the front of the property are two elegant reception rooms, comprising a comfortable lounge and a separate living room, both benefitting from attractive original features and an abundance of natural light. To the rear, the heart of the home is undoubtedly the impressive open-plan kitchen/dining room, which was significantly enhanced as part of the 2016 extension. Featuring underfloor heating, extensive worktop space and ample room for dining and entertaining, this sociable space flows seamlessly into the delightful sun room. With direct access to the rear garden, the sun room provides the perfect place to relax and enjoy views over the outdoor space throughout the year.

The first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms. Bedrooms two and three are positioned to the front of the property, while the generous principal bedroom enjoys a peaceful rear aspect overlooking the garden. A family bathroom serves all bedrooms.

Externally, the property continues to impress. To the front, a private driveway provides off-road parking. The mature rear garden offers a high degree of privacy and is beautifully established with an array of planting, creating a tranquil outdoor retreat. At the far end of the garden sits a substantial shed/workshop with traditional barn-style doors, providing excellent storage or potential hobby space.

The property has benefited from extensive improvements, including a substantial kitchen/dining extension, an upstairs extension, a complete new roof and rebuilt chimneys in 2016, together with the installation of a modern combi boiler. Further enhancements in 2023 included a side and rear extension, new real wood flooring extending through the reception areas, a new consumer unit, and underfloor heating within the kitchen. The property's attractive stained-glass windows have also been sympathetically upgraded with double glazing, preserving the home's original character while improving energy efficiency.

Offering an exceptional blend of period charm, modern convenience, versatile living accommodation and a wonderful private garden, this impressive detached home presents a rare opportunity for families seeking a distinctive property in a highly desirable setting.
