The property enjoys a fine, non-estate position, set back from the road only a short walk from the mainline train station. The property was originally constructed in the late 1980s, although the house has been transformed with a programme of expansion and full refurbishment. In fact a purchaser would be forgiven for thinking that the property was built in much more recent times. There is ample off-road parking, a generous rear garden measuring over 150ft in length and backs onto farmland to the rear.
The accommodation comprises an entrance hall leading to a large welcoming reception hall with stairs to the first floor accommodation, porcelain flooring, which runs through much of the ground floor, two fitted storage cupboards and a cloakroom w.c and utility room just off. There are two reception rooms including a family/playroom and a generous sitting room with a woodburning stove. across the width to the rear of the property is the fabulous open-plan kitchen/dining/living room. Fitted with attractive contemporary, gloss-fronted cabinetry, ample Silestone working surfaces with matching island, an inset one and a half sink unit and a range of Siemens integral appliances, which include a large induction hob, twin ovens, extractor, dishwasher and an undercounter fridge. The utility room has matching cabinetry with an integral full-height fridge-freezer, space for a washing machine and a door to outside.
Upstairs off the galleried landing are four double bedrooms and a family bathroom. These include the master bedroom with a walk-in closet and an ensuite shower room and a gust bedroom with ensuite facilities also.
Outside, there is a generous block-paved driveway, which would easily accommodate four large vehicles. Gated access leads to the covered side garden laid to paviour and opens to the rear garden, which is predominantly laid to lawn with raised flower and shrub beds, a large Indian sandstone terrace, which is ideal for alfresco dining and all enjoys excellent levels of privacy and backs onto undulating farmland to the rear.
