Set well on a generous plot in Southwater village, this four-bedroom detached house balances family practicality with bright, modern living spaces. The rear open-plan kitchen/breakfast/sitting area, skylights and double doors create a light-filled hub that flows directly to the lawned garden and two outdoor entertaining terraces.
Accommodation includes a ground-floor bedroom or study, separate dining room, utility and downstairs WC—useful for families or home working. Upstairs the principal bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and an ensuite; two further bedrooms share a contemporary family bathroom with a large walk-in shower.
Practical positives include a double garage, ample off-street parking, double glazing and mains gas central heating. The house was constructed in the late 1990s/early 2000s and is presented to a modern decorative standard, but its EPC rating of C and the description of council tax as quite expensive are important running-cost considerations.
This is a comfortable family home in a very low-crime, affluent area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal—well placed for local primary and secondary schools. Buyers seeking period charm should note the build is modern; purchasers wanting the highest energy efficiency may consider further insulation or upgrades.
