A superbly presented, executive style, detached five bedroom family home built by David Wilson Homes in 2005 and situated on a superb corner cul-de-sac position with open views.
This home would be ideal for a growing family and offers living accommodation with the benefit of a gas fired central heating system and uPVC double glazed window which comprises entrance hallway with centre dividing staircase leading to a galleried landing, 18' lounge with French doors leading to a spacious double glazed conservatory extension, dining room with bay window, study which makes an ideal work from home space, open plan breakfast kitchen and family dining room with a lovely feature bandstand-style walk in bay window overlooking the rear garden.
On the first floor there is a superb galleried landing with patio doors opening onto a front facing balcony, master bedroom with fitted wardrobes and en-suite shower room, bedroom two with fitted wardrobes and open views from the rear facing window and an en-suite shower room. Bedroom three is a further double bedroom with fitted wardrobe. Bedrooms four and five are both double rooms with fitted wardrobes and views of the surrounding countryside from the rear facing window. Additionally, the bedrooms are served by a family bathroom which was refitted in 2021 with new tiling and a contemporary design white suite including bath with rain head shower over.
Outside the corner plot offers a spacious frontage laid out with a tarmac driveway proving ample parking for four vehicles and additional gravelled hardstanding offering additional parking if required. There is a brick built detached garage with up and over doors, attractive landscaping with slate chip borders planted with shrubs. A wooden gate and pathway along the side of the house gives access to the spacious and secluded rear garden which is set out with lawned areas, borders and patio terraces positioned for the sun at different times of day. There are views of countryside to the rear and of a protected meadow located on the south side of the property.
This detached home, in our opinion, possibly has one of the best locations on the Fernwood village development and viewing is highly recommended.
