3 Bed Detached House For Sale

The property
The house has been subjected to a programme of renovations in recent years, comprising a side and rear extension, a refitted family bathroom and a bespoke kitchen with eye-catching quartz work surfaces. The installation of solar panels provides a significant reduction in energy bills, coupled with a new boiler, creating an energy efficient residence. The layout is well suited to family life, with plenty of space downstairs for relaxing as a family in the two generously proportioned living areas. The entrance hallway leads to a cloakroom and onto the good-size sitting room. From here there is an open plan aspect onto the kitchen/dining/family room which is a fantastically airy space with attractive deep blue cabinetry, a dining area, snug/playroom and a wall of bifold doors leading to the garden. The house also benefits from a utility room with space for laundry machines and a fitted study. Upstairs there are three bedrooms, two of which are doubles, and a family bathroom with both bath and shower.

The attractively presented house is set behind a gravel driveway with space for two cars. The garage has been partly converted for storage and to create the ground floor study; it is ideal for garden storage and bikes. To the rear, a well maintained rear garden is enclosed by wooden panel fencing, with a paved terrace leading to a parcel of lawn bordered by raised flowerbeds which are stocked with a number of shrubs. The garden also includes a painted summerhouse as well as hot and cold water points and a outside plug.
