Set on a generous ~0.2 acre plot in a quiet cul-de-sac, this detached chalet-style house offers flexible living for growing families. The layout includes two ground-floor double bedrooms and a sizeable lounge/diner, while upstairs provides two further double bedrooms each with en-suite facilities, giving excellent options for multi-generational living or guests.
Externally the property stands out with an in-and-out driveway, two separate garages and a private, secluded rear garden ideal for children and outdoor entertaining. Constructed in the early 2000s with double glazing and gas central heating, the house is solidly built yet offers clear scope to modernise or reconfigure (subject to planning) to create a more open-plan ground floor or to convert the garages into home workspace or additional living accommodation.
Practical advantages include freehold tenure, no onward chain, low local crime, fast broadband and easy road links to the M3. Important considerations: the home would benefit from updating to reflect contemporary finishes and there are ongoing higher council tax costs to factor into household budgets. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale, plot and scope this house provides for family life and future improvement.
