The Property

Built in 1986, this detached two storey home has been in the same ownership since 2000. A garden room was added to the rear in 2007 which, like the sitting room, has a log burning stove. The current owners have lavished much attention on the gardens which are a particular feature of the property, and extend to 0.24 of an acre. The front facade has stone window surrounds, with all the windows being UPVC double glazed.

Double doors and bi-fold doors lead into the adjoining garden room, which has two lots of doors into the garden, and a cloakroom off. The kitchen/breakfast/family room has a good range of units including a Rangemaster cooker. The dishwasher is integrated and there is a breakfast bar. A door off leads to the utility room, which in turn has access to the garden. On the first floor landing there is an airing cupboard and an access hatch to the loft, which is part boarded and has a ladder. The large main bedroom is at the rear and has an en suite shower. The second bedroom has a vanity basin and corner cupboard, plus a built-in wardrobe. There are two further double bedrooms and a large family bathroom with a separate shower cubicle.
