Description - This individual detached, reverse-level new build has been thoughtfully designed in a quirky cottage style combined with modern efficiency. Constructed with low maintenance in mind, the property benefits from uPVC double glazed windows, including four sash-style windows enhancing its cottage appeal, alongside an air source heat pump providing hot water and central heating. Internally, there are contemporary chrome electric fittings to the ground floor and a heat recovery ventilation system throughout, ensuring comfort and energy efficiency, with a "B" EPC rating.
The layout has been carefully considered to maximise natural light, with vaulted ceilings, skylights and large openings creating a bright and welcoming home. There is dual access to both floors, offering flexible accommodation for those requiring level living. The property will be sold with an Architects Certificate and our client is prepared to discuss flooring as part of the negotiation process.
Accommodation - The accommodation is arranged in a reverse-level format, with the main living areas on the ground floor, with a lower ground floor level where the bedrooms will be found. The spacious kitchen/dining room is a sociable and versatile space, offering ample room for a dining table as well as a sofa or snug area. Two skylights flood the room with natural light, complementing the bespoke work surfaces and matching fitted units. Integrated appliances include a double oven, ceramic hob and dishwasher, with a plumbed space for a washing machine located in the adjacent utility room. The utility room also provides additional storage, matching worktops, housing for the hot water cylinder and a useful WC. An inner hall leads to the staircase and into the impressive living room, a particularly attractive feature of the home, enjoying a vaulted ceiling, exposed natural timber detailing and two sash windows framing views across the village towards open fields and countryside beyond.
On the lower ground floor, a hallway provides access to the remaining accommodation and includes an external door to the side as well as a cupboard housing the electric meter. The principal bedroom is positioned to the front and benefits from two sash windows and an ensuite shower room, fitted with an electric shower and aqua panelling, along with useful under-stairs storage. There is a single third bedroom, ideal for use as a study, office or hobby room, while the family bathroom is well appointed with a vanity unit incorporating a wash basin, WC and bath with a direct feed shower and distinctive onion-style shower head, complemented by a quality black-trimmed shower screen. A further double bedroom is situated to the rear, featuring French doors opening to the side, providing direct access to the garden and allowing an abundance of natural light - an ongoing theme throughout this thoughtfully designed home.
