The property is nicely set back from Barn Road behind a block paved driveway that provides comfortable off-road parking for three cars, with a fourth able to be parked inside the single garage. To the left of the drive is a patch of shrubbery including a large evergreen tree to enhance the initial appearance. To the right of the house is a secure gate that leads through to the rear garden. The garden is a generous size that has multiple features including lawn, decorative patio, and decking. There is a garden shed secluded to the left side of the house and another to the rear of the garden, beside a greenhouse. One of the main focal points of the garden is a delightful Japanese Maple tree in the centre. A combination of rendered wall and wooden fencing is erected to the boundaries. Ground Floor Viewers enter the home into a generous hallway that has plenty of room for guests to remove coats and shoes. Immediately of note is the high quality engineered oak flooring that continues through to the dining room and lounge. To the right of the hallway is a welcome guest wc with wash basin, with the staircase leading up to the first floor positioned just beyond here. The staircase has a handy storage cupboard underneath. From the hallway there are doors leading off to the dining room, lounge, and kitchen. The dining room is at the front of the house and has a deep bay window maximising the space available for a family dining table and other desired furniture. This leaves the largest open space in the house, the lounge, to be purely designated for the family to relax. The lounge includes a gas fireplace set within the external chimney breast and a glazed exit door to the rear garden that is flanked by two tall windows. The kitchen suite is very impressive with its solid oak facias and granite works surfaces. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, chest height double oven and a SIX-burner gas hob with an overhead extractor fan.

At the far right of the room is an open space ideal for a breakfast bar. From here there are French doors opening out to the rear garden and a rear personnel door into the garage, where the central heating system boiler is mounted. First Floor Moving up the carpeted staircase leads viewers to a gallery landing, with the staircase splitting midway up to the extended part of the first floor. The main part of the landing narrows to a corridor that has a wide storage cupboard housing the hot water tank fed by the system boiler. Doors from both landings lead off to three double bedrooms, two single bedrooms, a home office, and the family bathroom. The loft hatch is positioned above the top of the stairwell. The master bedroom is positioned at the front of the house above the dining room and therefore has a continuation of the lovely bay window below. There is a row of fitted wardrobes and a dressing table to the far left of the room and a window seat set within the bay window. At the rear of the bedroom is a door to a fabulous en suite bathroom that comprises of a bathtub with shower and bi-folding screen fitted over, a large wash basin sat atop a cabinet, wall mounted mirrored cabinet, toilet, and a bidet.
