Head up to the first floor to the light and airy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, which offers an impressive space to relax and unwind, with French doors opening onto a Juliette balcony, filling the room with natural light. Enjoy cosy evenings by the wood burner, catch up on your favourite shows on the Smart TV, or gather around the large dining table that comfortably seats 12. The well-equipped kitchen features a double electric oven, induction hob, microwave, fridge with ice box, and dishwasher - perfect for preparing family meals. Also on the first floor are two additional bedrooms: a king-size bedroom and a flexible twin bedroom with zip-and-link beds (can be made into a king-size on request), along with another bathroom featuring a shower over the bath and WC.

This leads to a utility room with a washing machine, tumble dryer, and provides direct access to the garden.

Head outside and discover everything this property has to offer. A spacious patio with garden furniture and a BBQ provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining, leading onto a large, enclosed lawn—ideal for family games and relaxation. Children have a dedicated, enclosed play area, complete with a Wendy house, slide, swings, and a climbing frame.
