The Approach
The property is approached from Fowey Avenue via a smart block-paved driveway, providing side-by-side parking for two vehicles. A pathway extends alongside the property, giving access to a secondary entrance into the laundry room. It continues to a side gate leading to the rear garden. The principal entrance is positioned to the front of the home and opens into an enclosed porch, beautifully illuminated by floor-to-ceiling Georgian-style double glazed windows. This welcoming space also benefits from a central heating radiator, with an internal door opening through to the main living accommodation.
Living & Entertaining
Entering the living room immediately reflects the high standard of presentation found throughout the property. This impressive open-plan reception space is laid with engineered oak flooring, enhancing the sense of quality while running seamlessly through the full depth of the room to create a bright and spacious atmosphere. To the front, a floor-to-ceiling Georgian-style double glazed window allows for an abundance of natural light, while a recessed wall-mounted living flame gas fire with log-effect finish provides an attractive focal point and added character. To the rear, the dining area enjoys direct access to the garden via sliding patio doors. It offers ample space for a family dining table, flowing openly into the adjoining kitchen to create an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining.
Kitchen
The kitchen has been beautifully appointed with a comprehensive range of matching wall, base and drawer units. These units are complemented by square-edged quartz work surfaces and coordinated upstands. Forming the centrepiece of the room is an island unit, finished with a quartz worktop. This extends to provide a breakfast bar and seating area, ideal for both casual dining and socialising. A well-considered range of integrated appliances includes a fridge/freezer, an under-counter fridge, a dishwasher and eye-level microwave, while a range cooker is tucked beneath an extractor hood. An inset one-and-a-half bowl stainless steel sink with drainer is set beneath a double-glazed window overlooking the rear garden. The room further benefits from generous cupboard and drawer storage, plinth lighting, ceiling spotlights and a continuation of engineered oak flooring, all combining to create a highly functional yet stylish space.
Laundry room
Adjoining the kitchen is a separate laundry room, fitted with tiled flooring and a worktop along one wall with base units beneath, together with space and plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer. Furthermore, there is an integrated freezer. An obscured double-glazed side window allows natural light, while a door provides access to the rear garden. The laundry room also features a loft hatch, adding further practicality to this useful ancillary space.
Cloakroom
Adjoining the laundry room is a modern cloakroom, finished with tiled flooring for cohesiveness. The room is fitted with a vanity unit incorporating a wash hand basin with useful storage cupboards beneath, together with a low-level WC. An obscured double-glazed window to the rear provides natural light while maintaining privacy.
Garage
Accessing from the living room, an internal door opens to an inner hallway, where engineered oak flooring continues seamlessly. This area also has stairs rising to the first floor, a radiator, a wall-mounted thermostat for the central heating system, and a useful understairs storage cupboard. A further internal door leads into the integral garage, which opens into a generous and versatile space. A partition wall currently creates a room used as a home office/salon, while the section nearest the up-and-over door provides additional storage. The garage also houses the wall-mounted combination boiler serving the central heating system, along with the consumer unit and power points, making it a practical space with excellent potential for a variety of uses.
Bedrooms
On the first floor, a double glazed window to the side aspect allows natural light to the landing, which also provides access to the loft space. Bedroom one is a generously proportioned double room positioned at the front of the property. It features a low-set double glazed window and a comprehensive range of built-in wardrobes with hanging space, shelving and partially mirrored sliding doors. Bedroom two is another well-sized double bedroom overlooking the rear garden through a double-glazed window. This room also benefits from a TV aerial point and fitted wardrobes with hanging rails, shelving and mirrored sliding doors. Bedroom three is similarly a double bedroom, with a double glazed window to the front aspect and space available for a wardrobe, making it a versatile room suitable for a child’s bedroom, guest room or study.
Bathroom
The bathroom has been stylishly appointed with a modern suite and fully tiled walls, creating a sleek and contemporary finish. The suite comprises a wall-hung low-level WC with concealed cistern, wall-hung wash hand basin, panelled bath with fitted wall-mounted television, and a spacious corner shower with a mains-fed rainfall shower. Additional features include an obscured double glazed window to the rear, tiled flooring with electric underfloor heating, and a wall-mounted heated towel rail.
A Garden to Enjoy
The rear garden has been beautifully landscaped to create an attractive and private outside space, ideal for relaxing and entertaining. Accessed via double-glazed sliding doors, the garden opens onto a generous paved seating area. This enjoys a sunny aspect and provides an excellent space for outdoor dining. Beyond the patio, the garden rises to lawn arranged over two levels, with mature palm-style trees, planted borders and a pond with water feature adding to its appeal. To the rear, the garden enjoys a high degree of seclusion and pleasant countryside views.
