An attractive 1920s bay-fronted semi-detached house, extended and much improved, set within a large, mature garden and located within this highly sought-after village with the added benefit of planning for a two-storey extension to the front and rear.

Offered with no onward chain, the property enjoys a fine non-estate position and just a short walk from the mainline train station and the village amenities. The current owners have transformed the property with a programme of expansion and refurbishment, resulting in beautifully presented accommodation. There is current planning permission of a two-storey extension to the front and rear of the existing property granted in 2023. Reference: 22/05595/HFUL

The accommodation comprises a welcoming reception hall with solid wood flooring and stairs to the first floor accommodation. There are two reception rooms including a bay-windowed dining room and sitting room with a feature fireplace incorporating a woodburning stove plus a garden room extension just off. The kitchen is fitted with attractive modern cabinetry and solid wood worksurfaces with an inset ceramic, one and a half sink unit with mixer tap and drainer. There is a range of integral appliances including a five-ring gas hob, double oven, extractor plus place for a dishwasher and an American-style fridge-freezer. Just off is a handy utility room with space for the usual white goods and a cloakroom w.c. just off.

Upstairs, there are three bedrooms. Please note that bedroom two and three are inter-connected and there is a refitted family bathroom with a shower-bath.

Outside, the property is set back from the road behind a lawned front garden. The driveway provides parking for two cars. Gated access leads to the rear garden, which measures 150ft in length, is laid mainly to well-maintained lawns with well-stocked flower and shrub borders and beds with a selection of trees and bushes. To the rear of the garden is a large garden office /studio (19'9'' x 11'3") with power, light, heating and internet all connected.

Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
