To the left of the house is a pathway that leads to a secure gate to enter the rear garden. A slabbed patio is laid around the conservatory to provide an area for outdoor furniture and the slabbing continues to form a path down the left side of the garden, ending at the wooden shed.

Ground Floor Upon entering, viewers will immediately note the generous hallway which is perfect for removing coats and shoes before moving further.

The kitchen has a stylish monotone suite fitted that includes an integrated oven, four-burner gas hob and an overhead extractor fan. The sink with drainer is positioned in front of the window, looking out to the parking area. It’s worth noting that all windows are double-glazed. Spaces are available for a washing machine and fridge-freezer. The lounge is a magnificent sized room, easily large enough to hold a sofa suite, entertainment unit and a four-person dining table. Sliding patio doors open to a marvellous conservatory which could be used as an alternative area for dining, a playroom or a place to relax whilst looking out to the garden. A door to the left opens to exit to the patio. First Floor Moving upstairs, the landing area has three doors providing access to both double bedrooms and the family shower room. A hatch above the landing accesses the loft which contains the combination boiler which we are told is around 3-4 years old.  The shower room is the most recent addition to the house and has a stunning suite that will be loved by buyers. It comprises of a large shower cubicle spanning the width of the rear of the room with a storm shower head fitted. A row of units fitted to the front of the room incorporate the wash basin, toilet, cabinets and plinth lighting. A chrome heated towel radiator and back lit mirror are also in place. The suite is complemented by attractive tiling to the walls. The master bedroom is to the rear of the property, spanning the full width and looking out to the rear garden.
