The Living Space
The central hallway gives a great first impression while adding a touch of character. To the rear of the home an open plan lounge and orangery provides plenty of space for family life and is versatile in use. Currently the space is used as a dining room and lounge area, with French doors and an abundance of windows streaming in lots of natural light, and allowing that lovely indoor-outdoor lifestyle onto the garden on summer days. And the lounge aspect of this space features a contemporary gas fire set within the chimney breast.
In addition to the living room as detailed above, the front lounge provides a more cosy and traditional feel, with a bay window looking onto the front. Another practical feature that makes this a great and versatile family home is the office/study, which could otherwise be a playroom or perhaps a guest bedroom if desired?
The kitchen is situated to the rear and benefits from a range of integrated appliances including dishwasher, double oven, five plate gas hob and extractor, plus a sink with drainer and mixer tap. The breakfast bar makes this a handy social space for both everyday life and when entertaining guests, and the design is of a contemporary style with neutral tiled splashbacks, a contrast black worktop and wood cabinetry with stainless steel fittings. Off the kitchen is also a large utility room which provides a great amount of extra storage space – perfect for family life!
The Bedrooms & Bathroom
Like the living space downstairs, each of the bedrooms are good sizes and well proportioned for family life. The master to the front features another lovely bay window adding a touch of character. The second and third bedrooms are situated to the rear of the home, with the second being another good double with fitted wardrobes, and the third is the smallest though is large enough to accommodate a double bed and furniture. Situated in the centre of the home is the family bathroom, featuring a tiled floor and walls and a three-piece suite comprising bath with shower, wash basin and WC.
