This detached house was built in 1975 and has remained in the family from new. The property is situated at the beginning of a cul-de-sac close to the new primary school and occupies a broad plot which extends to approximately 170ft in length and includes generous frontage and a long driveway which provides ample off-street parking and leads to a tandem length double garage. The accommodation measures 1575 sq ft and is arranged over two spacious floors which allow a high degree of natural light. The property is in need of sympathetic modernisation and offers excellent scope for reconfiguration and expansion (subject to the necessary planning consents).
A large bright and airy reception hall has an attractive open staircase rising to the first-floor accommodation and access to the WC and dining room with hatch to kitchen and window overlooking the side aspect. The kitchen/dining room provides a range of matching low-level units, drawers and wall mounted cabinets, working surfaces with tiled splash backs, space for freestanding appliances, access to the side garden, a large window overlooking the rear garden and access to a useful utility room which provides plumbing for white goods and additional storage space. The sitting room measures an impressive 20’ft x 11’11’ft and has a large window overlooking the front aspect and a gas fireplace. Upstairs, the long first floor landing leads to the family bathroom suite with separate shower cubicle and four bedrooms. Outside, the large rear garden is predominately laid to lawn with mature trees and scrubs to borders. There is a paved terrace area with flower beds, access to the side area which leads to the front of the property, pedestrian access to the garage and a timber garden shed.
