Constructed in the 1970’s, this beautiful home was later extended to the front, the rear and the side. The property has recently had a replacement kitchen and a replacement composite roof in the sitting room to the rear.
To the ground floor the property comprises an entrance porch ideal for parking buggies and storing footwear and the porch leads onto an inner hallway with stairs leading up to the first floor. This extended residence benefits from four reception rooms which include a study looking out to the front, a living room with original parquet flooring, a formal dining room and a further sitting room which looks and opens onto the garden to the rear. The recently replaced kitchen has beautiful cabinetry at base level with large worktop space ideal for prepping and baking and a breakfast bar to the centre of the kitchen. Completing the ground floor is a separate WC accessible off the kitchen.
To the first floor are three well proportioned bedrooms with built in storage to bedroom one and storage over the recess of the stairs in bedroom three. The bathroom has been extended and sanitaryware which includes a panelled bath, a walk-in shower and a pedestal sink basin. A separate toilet with sink completed the remainder of the first floor.
Externally, the property has a concrete laid driveway providing off road parking and a lawn area with herbaceous borders. The rear garden is south - west facing, fully enclosed, laid predominantly to lawn and has a paved patio and pathway leading to the rear of the garden. To the rear of the garden is a tree line providing a good element of privacy.
The property is part of the Greenleas development and although freehold, there is a charge of £75 per year for the upkeep of the communal areas within.
