Description
This attractive detached family home offers just under 2,500 sq ft of well-balanced accommodation arranged over three floors, enjoying an exceptional rear outlook across the adjoining golf course.

A welcoming entrance hall provides an impressive introduction to the property with wood effect flooring that continues throughout this floor. To the right, a dual-aspect family room is cleverly separated from the hallway by stylish Crittall-style double doors, creating a versatile space ideal for everyday living, a playroom or home office. To the left, the formal dining room is enhanced by a large bay window and attractive fireplace. Positioned at the rear of the house, the principal reception room is a bright, inviting space, centred around a feature fireplace and benefitting from a bay window with double doors opening directly onto the garden terrace. The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with an attractive range of pale green cabinetry complemented by black granite worktops and integrated appliances, with ample space for a dining table to create an informal family hub. A useful utility room adjoins the kitchen and provides excellent additional storage, access to a separate WC and external access.

The first floor comprises three generously sized bedrooms and a smaller single bedroom/dressing room/study, all with fitted wardrobes. Three bedrooms enjoy distinctive bay windows, adding character and an abundance of natural light. The principal suite benefits from a beautifully appointed contemporary en suite shower room with twin wash basins, while the family bathroom is equally impressive, featuring a freestanding bath and separate shower enclosure. Both bathrooms benefit from underfloor heating.
A further staircase leads to the second floor where a substantial fifth bedroom offers exceptionally versatile accommodation. This impressive loft space could be adapted for a wide variety of uses, including a guest suite, home office, studio or games room. Double doors open onto a balcony, perfectly positioned to enjoy elevated views over the garden and golf course beyond, while extensive eaves storage is provided around the perimeter.

Outside, the rear garden is a particular highlight. A broad terrace wraps around the rear of the property, providing the ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining, whilst a long expanse of lawn extends away from the house and blends seamlessly into the golf course backdrop beyond. To the front, there is ample off-street parking for several vehicles.
The property also benefits from lapsed planning permission for a two-storey extension, offering future purchasers the potential to further enhance and enlarge the accommodation if required (STPP).
