Before stepping into this welcoming two-storey property, take a moment to admire its handsome brick exterior, lawned garden, and spacious driveway. Head inside, kick off your sandy shoes in the hallway, then venture deeper to find light and airy interiors with calming hues and homely comforts. The open-plan lounge, kitchen, and diner form the social heart of the home and are soaked in natural light thanks to the large roof lantern and French doors to the garden. The well-appointed kitchen boasts everything needed for a self-catering stay; enjoy your holiday feasts at the long dining table, at the breakfast bar if numbers are low, or al fresco out in the garden when the sun shines. You’ll find plenty of space to spread out and relax, starting with the main lounge in the open-plan living space, featuring deep sofas and a Smart TV for cosy movie nights. A second lounge overlooks the front garden and offers books and board games, while a snug/playroom provides a perfect spot for little ones to escape to. Enjoy competitive evenings in the garage-turned-games room, featuring a pool table and secure bike storage. A handy utility space with laundry facilities completes the ground floor. Upstairs, four restful bedrooms offer a great night’s sleep: choose from a master king-size room with garden views, two double bedrooms, one of which boasts a TV and en-suite shower room, plus a single bedroom with a pull-out mattress for one additional child guest. Serving the bedrooms and completing the home is a well-appointed family bathroom with a shower over the bath.
From the living space, step outside each day and make full use of the fantastic garden. Here, two furnished patio spaces invite slow morning coffees and al fresco evening feasts. Children can run wild on the enclosed lawn, while adults will appreciate the three off-road parking spaces on the driveway, making day trips a breeze.
