Owner's comments
"We moved into our house in 2013 and have lived here happily for over 10 years. We enjoy the lovely countryside walks which can be accessed within a few minutes of our property, and a local park where our granddaughter loves to play. There are amenities close by including the chip shop and local store which often come in useful for impromptu family visits. Bus timetables are good if we wish to leave the car behind and go to town - although it only takes about 20 minutes to walk in on a nice day.
Our back garden is private and we enjoy hosting barbeques in the summer for family and friends. Our off-road parking can accommodate up to five cars when we are entertaining. A lot of local residents have lived here for a number of years, and the area feels safe to live in. There is a local primary school within a two minute walk of our property which is ideal for those with children. We will be sad to leave the area and hope that the next owners will enjoy the house as much as we have."
Accommodation
Stepping into the front door, you will find the kitchen to the left, stairs, rising to the first floor on the right, and the door opening in to the open plan living space positioned at the back of the home. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base cupboards and drawers, along with a built-in double oven with gas hob and extractor canopy over. There is worksurface space aplenty, also with room for appliances, such as a washing machine, dishwasher, tumble dryer and fridge/freezer. Leading through into the open plan reception area, the room is illuminated by a bright double aspect with windows to the side and rear, overlooking the rear garden. There is ample space for a sofa set and dining table with chairs. A single door leads out to the rear garden, where a small decked area provides a seating space, and steps down onto a patio.
Upstairs, the landing presents each of the three bedrooms and the shower room, as well as also providing access to the loft. Bedroom three bedroom two are each located at the back of the property and a single and double room respectively. The primary bedroom is a comfortable double room, boosting, a pleasant double aspect. Completing the accommodation, is the shower room, which has been recently upgraded and refitted by the current owners - now, a modern and stylish sweet, comprising a WC, wash hand basin, extractor fan, shaving socket and a walk-in shower cubicle with downlighting and a fully tiled surround.
Outside & parking
The front of the home is a simple, low maintenance area which is laid with brick paving, providing space for up to four vehicles to park, along with further unrestricted parking to the side and on the road at the front. A single solar panel next to the front door is a small bonus that powers an internal light in the living space. The garage is accessed via a traditional 'up and over' door, and is connected to power and light with storage above.
The garden is an attractive and secluded outside space, neatly arranged by the current owners to benefit from numerous pleasant sections which enjoy a great degree of privacy. The patio joins the back of the home and a single door leads into the garage from the rear. Adjoining the patio is a well-maintained area of lawn, which flows around the opposite side of the property, where there is a useful wooden shed for storage. The property is bordered at each side with the fencing, with electric powered lighting around the borders. Each section is filled with colour, in the form established shrubs and flowers. Stepping stones lead down to a private and tucked away section of decking, which makes for a lovely seating area - the ideal space to enjoy a coffee or dinner during the summer months.
