Accommodation

Stepping into the property, a small entrance hall provides access to the first-floor staircase, while a door to the left opens into a pleasant and modern sitting room. This inviting space features a window to the front aspect, allowing for good natural light, along with a useful under-stairs storage cupboard and easy-to-maintain LVT flooring flowing underfoot. A door from the sitting room leads through to the kitchen/dining room, a sociable and functional space with room for a dining table and chairs, and a single door opening out to the rear garden. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base cupboards and drawers, set amongst ample work surface areas, and incorporates a one and a half bowl stainless steel sink and drainer positioned beneath a window overlooking the garden. There is an electric oven with a four-ring gas hob and extractor canopy above, along with space and plumbing for a washing machine, dishwasher, and freestanding fridge freezer. A cupboard neatly houses the boiler. Completing the ground floor is a useful cloakroom, offering space for coats and shoes, along with a WC and wash hand basin.

To the first floor, the landing provides access to two well-proportioned double bedrooms. The main bedroom is positioned to the rear, enjoying a pleasant outlook over the garden, while the second bedroom sits to the front and benefits from a large, handy storage cupboard over the stairs. The accommodation is completed by a family bathroom fitted with a white suite comprising a WC, wash hand basin, and a panelled bath with shower over and partly tiled surround.

Outside & parking

To the side of the property, there is off-road parking for at least two vehicles, complemented by an area of decorative shrubbery adding kerb appeal to the front.

A pedestrian gate provides access to the rear garden, which enjoys a pleasant sunny aspect. A patio area adjoins the rear of the property, providing an ideal space for outdoor seating and entertaining, while the remainder of the garden is primarily laid to lawn. The garden is enclosed by fencing to both sides, making it ideal for those with young children and/or pets and includes a useful storage shed positioned in the far corner.
