Well-presented spacious family living.

Description

The Steps is a delightful stone house, built in 1989, set on the edge of the village. Having only had one owner and on the market for the first time in nearly 35 years, this detached home has been sympathetically retained and updated throughout the years offering a wealth of modern finishes.

Upon entering the house, the entrance hall offers vast amounts of space, portraying a light and welcoming feel. There is underfloor heating throughout and a downstairs cloakroom too. Leading on is a generous sitting room with double aspect, stone fireplace with working fire, and bifold doors opening up to the garden patio area making it a wonderfully sociable room, especially for summer entertaining. Across the hallway is the dining room, again of generous size with aspect to the front, providing a flexible and versatile space. The kitchen is very modern with high tech fittings such as two Neff ovens, steam oven, microwave oven, two warming draws, induction hob, instant boiling water tap, inbuilt fridge/ freezer and dishwasher, and a hand crafted island unit with Corian surfaces. The utility room can be found downstairs with storage and space for appliances, and useful access to the double garage.

Upstairs, lightness continues to flood on to the landing. The principal suite is an impressive size, with inbuilt wardrobes, dressing table, and an en suite with jacuzzi bath, shower and even Bluetooth speakers in the ceiling. The second bedroom is spacious with in built wardrobes with automatic lights, and modern fittings like USB sockets. There are two further double bedrooms, one in which is currently being used as a home office/study, and a good sized family bathroom.

Outside to the rear is a mature garden filled with an abundance of flowers, shrubs and trees with a good boarder providing privacy and security. There is also a lovely patio area perfect for alfresco dining and taking advantage of the southerly facing sun. In addition to this, there is a charming garden room that has been purpose built with bi folding doors, heating and wifi connection to be enjoyed all year round. To the front of the property is an integral double garage, with electric charging point and off road parking for numerous cars.
