Description
5 Lukes Close is a stone-built family home tucked away within a quiet cul-de-sac in this popular village. The accommodation, which is a well laid out family home has been under the current ownership since it was built and has been well looked after throughout.

The property has accommodation on ground floor compromising an entrance porch, hall, a cloakroom, a dual aspect sitting room with an open fire, a separate study, dining room and a kitchen/ breakfast room adjacent to the utility room. The current owner has had some architect’s drawings made up to add an additional orangery to the kitchen to make a larger kitchen/ dining room. This would fall under permitted development.

On the first floor, the dual aspect master bedroom has fitted wardrobes, and a refitted four piece en suite with a WC, a wash basin, bath and shower. There are two further double bedrooms and a generous size single bedroom as well as a refitted four-piece family bathroom with WC, a wash basin with storage beneath, a bath and a separate shower cubicle with built-in shower.
