Boydens are delighted to present this stunning three-bedroom semi-detached period property, showcasing a spacious open-plan extension to the rear that seamlessly blends modern living with charming period features, offering the perfect blend of comfort and character throughout the year.

Entering the property, you're greeted by a spacious dining hall with a window to the front aspect and stairs leading to the first floor. To the right, the lounge beckons with its central fireplace featuring an ornate surround and a window to the front, creating a cosy retreat during the colder months. Continuing through the dining hall, the open kitchen/living space awaits, adorned with bifold doors that flood the area with natural light and offer access to the rear patio. The kitchen boasts matching base and eye-level units, complemented by a central island perfect for casual dining, and opens into a utility area complete with space for appliances, storage cupboards, and access to the downstairs WC.

Upstairs, three well-proportioned bedrooms await, with the principal bedroom benefiting from an ensuite shower room featuring a shower cubicle, vanity-style washbasin, WC, and heated towel rail for added luxury. The family bathroom is a standout feature of the property, offering a separate bath and walk-in shower, double sink, and WC, providing a relaxing and stylish space for residents.

Externally, a small front garden with a footpath leading to the front door adds to the property's curb appeal, while the generous rear garden offers multiple patio areas, one of which features a pergola, ideal for outdoor entertaining or relaxation. The remainder of the garden is laid to lawn with a variety of fruit trees adding to the charm. A separate detached building, currently divided into a gym/home office and a garage with electric up and over door, provides versatility and additional storage space. A gate at the rear leads to the parking area, offering ample off-road parking for three vehicles on the shingle drive accessed via a common-hold track off the highway further up Bergholt Road.

In summary, this period property offers a unique opportunity to enjoy modern living in a characterful setting, with spacious accommodation, versatile outdoor spaces, and convenient off-road parking, making it an ideal choice for discerning buyers seeking a comfortable and stylish home.
