This extended, newly renovated detached house on Gores Lane offers robust family living across a generous 0.23-acre plot. The heart of the home is an impressive double-height, open-plan kitchen, dining and living space with full-width sliding doors that open onto a large, private garden and orchard — ideal for family entertaining and outdoor play.
Ground-floor living is flexible: a cosy lounge with a wood-burning stove and a second reception room that can serve as a home office, guest room or fifth bedroom. Practical additions include a utility room, ground-floor shower room and integral garage with substantial off-road parking on the wide gravel driveway.
Upstairs there are four bedrooms, a family bathroom and an en-suite to the guest bedroom, with light-filled principal bedroom overlooking the front. Planning permission has been granted to create two additional bedrooms and a bathroom above the garage, offering clear scope to increase accommodation and value.
The house is freehold, newly renovated and finished to a contemporary standard with quartz worktops, integrated appliances and a walk-in pantry. Note the property sits in an affluent, low-crime area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, but it attracts an expensive council-tax band. The construction dates from the 1950s–1960s and some original elements remain — buyers wanting a fully modernised fabric should confirm details such as glazing install dates and any remaining maintenance needs.
