Description

On approaching this impressive home, you are presented with a neat driveway providing convenient off-road parking for two vehicles. A path leads past a well-maintained front lawn and through a sheltered, part-glazed front door into the welcoming hallway. Once inside, the beautifully designed hallway features wooden doors opening into all ground floor rooms, along with stairs rising to the first floor. The hallway immediately sets the tone with its calming décor and attractive tiled flooring, which flows seamlessly through to the kitchen/diner.

Additionally, the room features inset lighting, a dual aspect that fills the space with plentiful natural light, and ample room for dining furniture. The stylish finish continues into the impressive sitting room, where full-width bi-fold doors with integrated blinds seamlessly connect the interior to the garden, further enhancing the sense of space. The room is complemented by neutral décor and wood-effect Karndean flooring. A ground floor WC and generous storage cupboard complete the ground level.
