Accommodation

There is a great sense of space when stepping in through the front door, with a wide entrance hall providing access to the first floor via stairs on the left as well as all the ground floor accommodation. The sitting room on the right overlooks the front of the home and is a cosy and comfortable area to relax. A cloakroom under the stairs consists of a WC and a wash hand basin, while the kitchen/dining room makes for the hub of the home - a space for entertaining guests and/or housing young family. Double doors lead out from here onto an adjoining patio in the garden, making for a pleasant and sociable space. The kitchen is fully fitted with a range of high specification appliances, including a built in ‘Bosch’ electric oven with gas hob and extractor canopy over. Additionally, there is a built in dishwasher and space is provided for a freestanding fridge/freezer and a washing machine, there is ample wall and base units and drawers for storage along with plenty of worktop space.

Rising to the first floor landing presents each of the double bedrooms with the second room at the rear, enjoying beautiful views stretching over the countryside that adjoins the development. The main bedroom is a slightly larger room with a recess over the stairs and also with two windows to the front aspect. Completing the internal accommodation is the main bathroom which comprises WC, wash hand basin, heated towel rail and a panelled bath with shower over.

Outside & parking

The property is tucked away within a small cul-de-sac with no passing traffic. Outside and to the front are two allocated parking spaces connected to the property and a short path leads up to the front door. At the back, a patio adjoins the property and double doors lead from the dining area. A path leads down the side of the garden which is otherwise laid mostly to lawn with fenced borders and a pedestrian gate accessing the garden from the rear. Despite being situated on a modern development, there is an abundance of peace and quiet which is one of the many benefits from living in this charming village.
