This handsome, spacious, detached house boasts over 2700 sq ft of wonderfully presented and well-balanced accommodation. Significantly extended in recent years, the property benefits from an abundance of natural light throughout and enjoys some superb views to the rear while the accommodation provides an excellent array of reception spaces on the ground floor and five bedrooms on the first floor.

The large porch leads through to a welcoming central inner hall with the downstairs accommodation radiating off from it. Firstly, one encounters a useful study and a super, versatile family room – especially useful when combined with the modern downstairs shower room which is adjacent to it, off the hallway. Located at the rear of the property, overlooking the garden, is a superb, open-plan kitchen/dining/family space with attractive fitted kitchen featuring ample base and eye level units and a wonderful island which provides a convenient breakfast bar and plenty of storage. Appliances include gas hob, double oven and space for dishwasher and fridge/freezer. There is ample room for a dining table and chairs and the casual seating area has views over the garden. Patio doors from both the kitchen area and seating area provide access out to the garden - creating a seamless flow between the spaces and perfect for entertaining guests during the summer months. A practical utility room which has a sink, cupboard space and a door leading outside and to the garage is located off the kitchen. Also at the rear is the generous, bright sitting room which features a lovely wood burner while sky lights and sliding patio doors provide plenty of natural light.

Stairs rise to the first floor where five bedrooms are located. The master bedroom benefits from plenty of wardrobe space and a smart en-suite shower room. The four remaining bedrooms are all a good size and there is a contemporary four-piece family bathroom to service these bedrooms. Useful storage cupboards are positioned in both the upstairs and downstairs hallway.

Outside there is ample parking on the driveway and within the integral double garage. A gate at the side of the property leads through to the lovely, large rear garden which is both private and mature with many shrubs lining the borders around the lawn. A patio stretches across the rear of the house and to one side of the lawn – a perfect place to position a table and chairs to sit and enjoy the beautiful outlook. There is also a useful storage shed and a greenhouse.
