Description
A sloping driveway provides an attractive approach to the property, leading to a detached double garage and ample off-road parking. From here, a flagged pathway guides you to the front door, opening into a welcoming porch and onward into the main hallway, setting the tone for the spacious accommodation beyond.
The impressive lounge is a standout feature, boasting a high ceiling and triple-aspect windows, including a bay that frames stunning views. Sliding doors open directly onto a patio seating area, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. A couple of steps lead up into a versatile sitting room, ideal for use as a formal dining room, children’s playroom or additional living space.
Across the hallway lies the thoughtfully designed breakfast kitchen, perfectly suited to both family living and entertaining. A generous seating area provides the ideal space for a breakfast table, positioned alongside glazed doors that overlook and open onto a flagged patio. The kitchen itself features a range of fitted cupboards with wrap-around worktops incorporating a breakfast bar, combining style with everyday practicality. Set within the worktop is a stainless steel one-and-a-half bowl sink with mixer tap and a four-ring induction electric hob, while integrated appliances include a double oven and grill, and dishwasher with additional space for a fridge.
Adjoining the kitchen is a useful utility room, fitted with additional storage cupboards and two single worktops, one incorporating a sink and drainer. There is space for a freezer and tumble dryer, along with plumbing for a washing machine. Also located on the ground floor is the principal double bedroom, featuring built-in wardrobes and access to a stylish en-suite shower room. Completing this level is a convenient cloakroom off the hallway, ideal for family use and visiting guests.
To the first floor, the landing provides access to all three bedrooms, the bathroom, a handy eaves storage cupboard and a ceiling hatch to the loft. The largest bedroom is a generous double, featuring built-in wardrobes, a dedicated dressing area and access to additional eaves storage. Bedroom three is currently arranged as a single room but can comfortably accommodate a double bed. The room also benefits from elevated bay views and a built-in wardrobe. The fourth bedroom is presently used as a home office, yet offers ample space for a double bed and freestanding furniture, with pleasant views over the rear garden. The contemporary bathroom is fitted with a three-piece suite comprising a bath with wall-mounted shower, WC and wash basin with vanity storage beneath.
Externally, the gardens wrap around the property and are a particular highlight. To the front are attractive split-level lawned gardens with established borders, mature trees and striking natural limestone outcrops, which continue around to the side where the gardens become more level while retaining the same landscaped character. To the rear, a stone-chipped seating area is complemented by further limestone outcrops and areas of natural woodland, creating a peaceful and private setting. Paved pathways and steps lead to the detached double garage and tarmac driveway, providing ample off-road parking. At the lower level of the plot is an additional lawned garden with mature trees and limestone features, completing this impressive outdoor space.
