This beautifully extended three-bedroom home offers generous living space and benefits from underfloor heating throughout the ground floor, as well as ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles. The property also boasts a spacious garden featuring a garden room and workshop, while the heart of the home is a stunning bespoke kitchen complete with a central island.

On the first floor, a light and airy landing provides access to all rooms. The principal bedroom features original reclaimed wood flooring, a radiator, windows to the side and rear aspects, and a vaulted ceiling. The family bathroom comprises a freestanding roll-top bath with mixer tap, separate shower cubicle, WC and wash hand basin set within a vanity unit. Bedroom two benefits from a radiator and window to the front aspect, while bedroom three has a radiator and window to the side aspect.
To the front of the property, a shingle driveway provides off-road parking for multiple vehicles. A gate leads through to the rear garden, which comprises a mixture of raised decking and patio areas with raised beds, an outdoor workshop with additional storage, and a garden room with wood-burning stove, light and power connected.
