4 bedroom detached house for sale

Built as part of a small cul de sac of detached houses in the late 1960s, the current owners extended the original house nearly 10 years ago, to create a balanced 4 bedroom family house with a stunning open plan kitchen dining and living area, which includes a recessed wood-burner for those chilly nights. The ground floor is covered in smart luxury vinyl tile wood effect planking giving the whole space a sense of airiness and light. The full makeover included new wiring, heating and double glazed windows that both open backwards and on the hinge at the side. The upstairs landing and bedrooms are carpeted with tiled bathrooms. The loft has a drop down ladder, electric light and is part boarded. The kitchen comes with built in dishwasher, electric oven, gas hob and extractor set in black granite worktops and upstands. There is space for a large fridge freezer. To the back of the kitchen is a useful utility room with space and plumbing for a washer and drier along with a wall mounted Worcester gas fired combi boiler supplying domestic hot water and central heating to radiators and towel rails. Outside to the front a block paved driveway provides parking for 2 cars flanked by an area of lawn and several shrubs that includes a beech hedge to one side. The rear gardens can be accessed from the kitchen door or the sliding patio doors from the dining area which opens onto a landscaped patio and pathway across the back of the house. A mini step up leads to the level lawn enclosed by close boarded fencing and a mature Laurel hedge at the back. Outside water tap and power point.
