A Superb Story Homes Semi That’s Bigger And Better Than When It Was First Built. Perfect for couples or young families, this modern three bedroom semi-detached now has a fabulous garden room which looks out to the south facing, no maintenance garden. Property ref: KD0516

Cross Close is a quiet cul-de-sac built by renowned local builder Story Homes in 2016. Story are known for building high quality homes on substantial plots - a far cry from the tightly packed estates that many of the national housebuilders are throwing up.

And back in 2016, No. 11 started out as a stylish semi-detached starter home with three decent size bedrooms and a versatile downstairs layout.

The current owners bought it from new and have kept it in superb, showhome condition. What’s more, they’ve extended at the rear - adding a garden room onto the kitchen / diner to make the versatile room even more sociable.

The modern kitchen has plenty of space in the fitted units and there’s room for a dining table and chairs - perfect for midweek meals.

And the new garden room gives an extra space to chill out and relax, with an Apex window and bi-fold doors that open to the south facing back garden.

The zero maintenance, beautifully landscaped garden has a choice of seating areas. An artificial lawn means you won’t have to worry about wasting any of your weekend mowing.

Upstairs has two double bedrooms and a decent sized single bedroom. The master bedroom comes with an en-suite shower room, which is in addition to the stylish family bathroom.

Being at the end of the close means you get nice open views from the upstairs back bedrooms and the garden is private and not overlooked.

There’s parking on the drive for a couple of cars and space at the side for a shed.

Houghton is a popular village, thanks to the convenient location close to the city centre and M6. Both are less than 10 minutes drive away.

There’s a village post office and store, the local primary school (rated "Good" by Ofsted) is less than 15 minutes walk away.

There’s even a Michelin starred fine dining restaurant, The Lounge On The Green.

If you’re not into fine dining you might prefer a scone from the café in the nearby Houghton Hall Garden Centre, which is only a short drive away.

This immaculate property could be perfect if you’re looking for a stylish modern starter home. It's in a great location, with a few thoughtful improvements that makes it even better than when it was first built.

I’m expecting plenty of interest, so call me to arrange a viewing.
