This delightful family home boasts a well-thought-out layout designed for modern living.

The kitchen/breakfast room is well-appointed and complemented by a convenient cloakroom and utility room, offering practical day-to-day solutions. An additional reception room on this level provides flexible accommodation and can be used as a snug, playroom, or a sixth bedroom.
On the first floor, the property offers a large, light-filled landing area, which could serve as a study or homework nook.

A family bathroom suite completes this floor, thoughtfully designed to meet the needs of a modern household.
The property is approached via a secluded front garden spanning an impressive 128 feet in width, bordered by tall hedges that provide both privacy and charm. A parking area and detached garage add practicality and convenience.
The south facing rear garden measures 84' x 52' max (25m x 15m) and is a truly exceptional outdoor retreat, designed to blend natural beauty with stylish functionality. This expansive, south-facing space is bordered by mature shrubs and trees, providing privacy and a sense of seclusion while framing the stunning panoramic views of open countryside and the distant River Stour.
The garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to offer multiple zones for relaxation and entertainment. A large paved patio, perfect for alfresco dining, flows seamlessly into a raised decking area, creating an ideal spot for evening gatherings or morning coffee in the sunshine. Nestled within this idyllic setting is a luxurious hot tub, inviting you to unwind while taking in the serene surroundings.
The lawn areas are bordered by vibrant flowerbeds and established planting, adding seasonal interest and bursts of color. The garden strikes a perfect balance between open, usable space and enchanting, landscaped corners that invite exploration and quiet reflection. Whether hosting summer barbecues, enjoying family time, or simply soaking in the tranquil ambiance, this garden offers something for every occasion.
