As you approach the property, you are greeted by its elegance. A paved pathway with the front garden to the right guides you to the front door with a canopy porch. Stepping into the entrance hall, the downstairs cloakroom is ahead of you, which comprises a low-level WC and a pedestal wash hand basin with a tiled splashback. On the right is the charming living room with a bay window that overlooks the front, allowing plenty of light to flow into the room, and access to a large understairs cupboard.
An inner hall provides access to the stairs, which take you up to the first floor, and beyond is the superb kitchen/dining room with a wood floor and double doors out onto the patio. The fully-fitted kitchen has a range of wall, base and drawer units with composite work surfaces and upstands above. Beneath the window with views over the garden is a stainless steel, single drainer sink with a mixer tap while integrated appliances include a double oven, an electric hob with extractor hood above, a dishwasher, a washing machine and a fridge/freezer.
The carpeted staircase leads you to the first-floor galleried landing, which provides access to two double bedrooms, both of which benefit from fitted wardrobes with mirror-fronted doors, and the family bathroom. The elegant part-tiled family bathroom has a wood floor and features a modern white suite comprising a panelled bath with a mixer tap and electric shower above with a glass shower screen, a low-level WC, a heated towel rail and a pedestal wash hand basin with mixer tap and wall-mounted mirror above.
From the first-floor landing, a further set of stairs guide you up to the second floor and the fabulous principal bedroom suite.

Fitted wardrobes feature mirror-fronted doors and the en suite shower room with a wood floor comprises a low-level WC, a pedestal wash hand basin, a heated towel rail and a double independent shower cubicle with a glass door.
At the front, there is a small front lawned garden and to the right of the property is a tarmac driveway providing off-street parking for two cars, with an electric charging point on the left. A wooden access gate opens into the rear garden which is bordered by wood fence panels. Mainly laid to lawn, there is an L-shaped paved patio that gives you plenty of space for a garden table and chairs, and at the rear of the garden is a storage shed.
