Doors lead to three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom is a generous double at the rear, enjoying peaceful garden and countryside views and benefiting from built in wardrobes. Bedroom two is also a double at the rear, with a built in wardrobe and adjacent shelved recess for additional storage. The third bedroom, currently used as a craft room, is a versatile space suitable as a single, small double, or home office, with a built-in storage cupboard.
The family bathroom is modern and fully tiled, featuring a panelled bath with an electric shower above, a wash hand basin, and a WC. A radiator and side window with obscured glass complete the room, providing warmth and natural light.
Externally, the property boasts generous gardens to the front, side, and rear. The front garden is planted with mature shrubs and small trees, creating an attractive and welcoming frontage, while a gated area with steps leads to a secluded sun deck, perfect for relaxing in privacy. The rear garden is generously proportioned, laid mainly to vegetable beds and complemented by a small lawn, greenhouse, and fruit cage. At the far end, a charming summer house provides a peaceful retreat or additional storage, and a large decked terrace adjacent to the lounge creates an ideal space for entertaining or enjoying the tranquil surroundings.
Additional benefits include private off road parking for two vehicles, gas central heating, double glazing throughout, and the potential to extend to the side, subject to the requisite consents being obtained, offering the opportunity to further increase the living space if required.
