An external door provides convenient access to the side of the property.

Home Office / Playroom (3.83m x 2.36m)

Direct access to the garden gives this room added flexibility and allows it to remain connected to family life without encroaching on the main living areas.

First Floor Landing

The bright landing connects all five bedrooms and the family bathroom. Its neutral finish and natural light continue the calm, considered feel found throughout the house. Two large built in storage cupboards, access to loft storage.

Bedroom 1 (3.38m x 3.16m)

Bedroom One is a comfortable double room positioned at the front of the property. Decorative wall panelling and elegant bedside lighting give the room a refined feel, while the wide front window provides excellent natural light.
There is ample space for a double bed and freestanding furniture, creating a restful principal bedroom with a clean, uncluttered finish.

En-Suite (2.34m x 2.02m)

Subtle lighting beneath the bath adds warmth and atmosphere, creating a bathroom that feels both practical and indulgent.

Bedroom 5 / Dressing Room (3.83m x 2.36m)

This versatile room offers a number of possible uses to suit the next owner’s needs. Its position beside the en-suite makes it ideal as a dedicated dressing room, creating a generous principal suite in conjunction with Bedroom One.

Alternatively, it could be arranged as a fifth bedroom, nursery, private study or guest room.

Bedroom 2 (3.49m x 3.14m)

Also positioned at the front, Bedroom Two is another well-proportioned double room with built in wardrobes. Its generous width allows for a variety of furniture arrangements, making it ideal as a permanent bedroom for an older child, teenager or visiting guest.

Bedroom 3 (3.18m x 2.43m)

Bedroom 4 (3.00m x 2.22m)

Bedroom Four is a bright rear-facing room that would work well as a child’s bedroom, nursery or additional home-working space. Its simple rectangular layout makes it easy to furnish and adapt as family requirements change.

Bathroom (2.24m x 2.03m)

The family bathroom has been finished in a clean, contemporary style, with large-format neutral tiling, a freestanding countertop basin, fitted vanity storage and a bath with shower above.
Warm feature lighting beneath the bath and carefully chosen gold-toned fittings complete the polished design.

Garage (5.39m x 5.04m)

Although the two original garage doors remain, the internal space has been divided by a stud wall and is currently used for storage rather than vehicle parking.

Garden

The established rear garden provides several distinct areas for relaxing, entertaining and family life.
A broad paved patio immediately behind the house offers space for outdoor seating and dining, with direct access from the kitchen and family area. Beyond the patio is a lawn surrounded by mature planting, established trees and colourful borders, creating a private and leafy backdrop.
A greenhouse and garden storage add practical value, while the combination of sunny open areas and shade beneath the mature tree makes the garden enjoyable throughout the warmer months.

Parking - Driveway

The property is approached across a private driveway providing off-road parking and access to the integral double garage.
