This substantial four-double-bedroom detached home offers generous family living across approximately 2,099 sq ft. Built in 2015, the property presents a modern, low-maintenance finish with a large open-plan kitchen/dining area, bay-fronted lounge with a multi-fuel log burner, and a bright master suite occupying the top floor with an en-suite.
Ground-floor living is designed for family life and entertaining: a long kitchen/diner opens onto a Mediterranean-style paved patio via French doors, creating a useful indoor–outdoor flow. The gated, low-maintenance front garden and block-paved driveway provide off-street parking for up to four cars; a single garage is available in a nearby block of four.
Practical positives include fast broadband (up to ultrafast speeds), mains gas central heating, and a freehold tenure. The loft-style master bedroom is particularly flexible and could be reconfigured into two rooms if additional space is required.
Buyers should note some important context for location and ownership costs. The plot is relatively small and gardens are low-maintenance rather than expansive. Council Tax is at Band E, above the local average, and the wider area records higher-than-average crime and pockets of deprivation despite good transport links. The garage is in a communal block rather than attached, and prospective purchasers are advised to verify any material information with solicitors.
