The property Walkers Close offers 1270 sq. ft of well proportioned accommodation, much of which is arranged over a single storey. Neutral décor promotes an ambience of calm, with the interiors providing interlinking reception areas which create a relaxed and convivial living environment. The distinctive, angled porch offers a spot to store outdoor wear with part-glazed double doors opening into a formal dining room which connects to the adjoining sitting room. Centred around an attractive stone fireplace, this congenial space enjoys enhanced illumination courtesy of the bay window recess. Offering ample space for informal dining and a niche area for a desk, the kitchen breakfast room features wood-fronted cabinetry and benefits from the natural light which floods into the adjoining conservatory. A green outlook and a route to the outside can be enjoyed in the bright garden room setting which offers an alternative space for downtime.
The inner hall gives access to two ground floor bedrooms, with the principal room offering fitted wardrobe storage. Adjacent is a family bathroom with modern fixtures providing a bath-tub and a separate shower cubicle. A staircase rises to a versatile-use room at the top of the home, with part-vaulted ceiling and access to extensive eaves storage.
