Solar panels with battery storage; EV charger beside garage
Single garage and monoblock driveway; floored loft storage

This distinctive three-bedroom detached villa pairs traditional stone character with modern, energy-saving upgrades to suit family life. The sunken lounge centres on a log-burning stove, linked by double doors to a dining room and a bright sun/summer room that provides all-day light and extra living space. The kitchen and separate utility room offer generous storage and recently renewed gas hob and electric oven for practical cooking needs.
The west-facing wraparound garden is enclosed and low-maintenance, safe for children and pets. A single garage, monoblock driveway and EV charging point give straightforward parking and electric vehicle convenience. Photovoltaic solar panels with battery storage significantly reduce electricity costs through much of the year.
Upstairs houses two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes and Velux windows; the principal bedroom benefits from a recently refurbished en-suite. A ground-floor flexible third bedroom is currently used as a study and sits adjacent to a downstairs WC — useful for multi-generational living or home working. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support remote working and family connectivity.
Considerations: the home is multi-level with internal steps from the entrance to the lounge, which may not suit mobility-impaired buyers. The area is described as very deprived, which may concern some purchasers and could affect resale. The property also has a single garage only and a compact garden, which limits outdoor expansion. Overall this is a characterful, energy-efficient family home with practical storage and parking, offered freehold.
