This charming Gough Cooper property was built in the 1960s, offering well proportioned accommodation with lots of potential. The entrance door is approached through a glazed porch and opens into a generous hallway with stairs to the first floor straight ahead. A door to the left hand side leads through to the bright and airy sitting room which has a large window overlooking the front garden and a feature fireplace with stove. Double doors lead through to a separate dining room, which offers a formal place for entertaining and overlooks the wonderful back garden. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units with a worktop over incorporating stainless steel sink with drainer. There is a freestanding cooker and a door providing direct access into the garden.
Upstairs there is a family bathroom, separate WC and 3 bedrooms. The master bedroom and bedroom 2 are both spacious double rooms and bedroom 3 is a single room which would also make an excellent home office. The family bathroom has wood-effect flooring and is fitted with a white suite including pedestal basin and panelled bath with shower over.
It is a good sized property as it is but for those looking to add space and value to this fantastic house there is plenty of extension potential (subject to obtaining any necessary planning consents). The property has mains gas central heating and the windows are predominantly double glazed.
OUTSIDE
The house is approached across a driveway which provides off road parking. There is an attractive front garden screened by neat hedging with a selection of attractive plants. A set of gates lead down the side of the property to a detached single garage, which has been split into 2 sections providing handy outside storage space.
The delightful back garden has been lovingly cared for and features well stocked beds filled with a wide variety of flowering plants, herbaceous shrubs and mature hedging. To the immediate rear of the property is patio providing an ideal spot for al fresco entertaining and there is a good sized area of lawn. A timber summer house at the rear of the garden provides a pleasant spot to sit and enjoy the garden throughout the year.
