Description
A sizeable detached property with manageable garden, tucked away in an ever-popular cul-de-sac just 500m from the pretty village centre.
The Property - Convenient for everything this sought-after village has to offer, this substantial and well-presented detached property offers particularly good proportions and a practical layout. With manageable gardens to the rear, it has some added extras including a recently upgraded conservatory with solid roof, and a roomy kitchen / breakfast room that incorporates the former study to create a larger dual-aspect eat-in kitchen. Whether you're a busy family or looking to downsize to a more manageable yet spacious home, this is well worth a look.
Accommodation - The storm porch at the front takes you into an initial porch, and beyond is a unusually spacious and welcoming entrance hall with understairs storage and an adjoining downstairs cloakroom. The former study was knocked through some years ago into the adjoining kitchen and creates a light and airy, sociable kitchen with room for a separate table. The kitchen is fitted with a range of modern, cream units which incorporate a pull-out larder cupboard, corner carousel units to maximise usable space, and built-in appliances including microwave, dishwasher, double electric oven and hob with stainless steel extractor. Just off the kitchen, the separate utility room includes space for your washing machine and opens to the rear garden.
The formal dining room overlooks the rear garden, and connects with both the kitchen and sitting room perfect for entertaining guests. The good size dual aspect sitting room includes a Minster stone fireplace with gas real flame effect fire, whilst patio doors open into the double glazed triple aspect conservatory which has just recently been upgraded with a solid roof.
The first floor landing is naturally lit via a sun tunnel, and houses the airing cupboard with hot water tank. The generous master bedroom benefits from a good size en suite bathroom, and all four bedrooms have built-in wardrobes. The former family bathroom has been converted to a fully tiled and spacious shower-room.
Outside - Having been owned by keen gardeners, the outside space thoughtfully laid out including patio / seating areas, lawn and borders including a variety of perennials, roses and mature shrubs for all year round structure and privacy. To the south side is a timber garden shed for storage, whilst there is a side access path on the north side of the house with pedestrian gate leading to the front. There is also an outside tap at the rear. At the front a driveway provides parking and access to the double garage with two electric roller shutter doors. The garage also houses the wall mounted gas boiler. An internal door opens into the utility room giving convenient access if you like to have an extra freezer or another appliance within easy reach.
