We have pleasure in offering to the market this deceptive, traditional, semi detached home which offers an excellent level of accommodation approaching 1,500 sq.ft. having been extended to create a versatile layout. The property provides two main reception areas and four bedrooms, the master of which benefits from ensuite facilities, and separate main shower room.
The property is tastefully presented throughout having seen a general programme of modernisation over the years with its excellent accommodation being large enough to accommodate families but could well appeal to a wider audience, whether that be from professional couples or even those downsizing from larger dwellings looking for a well maintained, traditional home in a pretty village setting.
The accommodation comprises an initial entrance hall with sitting room off and a fantastic, open plan, L shaped living/dining kitchen which will undoubtedly become the hub of the home, benefitting from a dual aspect with access out into the garden. Leading off the kitchen is a generous utility room, an additional boot room providing fantastic storage and a useful ground floor cloak room. To the first floor, leading off a central landing with a good level of integrated storage, are four bedrooms, all potentially large enough to accommodate double beds, and a separate main shower room. In addition the main bedroom benefits from a contemporary shower room.
As well as the internal accommodation the property occupies a delightful edge of village setting, offering a generous frontage providing a considerable level of off road parking and, to the rear, a south to easterly facing enclosed garden, well stocked with a range of trees and shrubs.
Overall viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
