The ground floor benefits from a bright open-plan kitchen/diner with French doors leading to the garden, plus a 15ft lounge and a convenient downstairs WC — a sensible arrangement for everyday family life and entertaining.
Upstairs the principal bedroom features a walk-through dressing area and en-suite, while two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the sleeping accommodation. A single integral garage provides off-street parking and storage. The property is freehold and located in a well-planned, low-risk small-town setting with fast broadband and generally good local amenities.
Buyers should note this is a new-build plot with an annual service charge to be confirmed and a reservation fee of £500. Council tax banding and some service charge details are yet to be finalised. The single garage limits parking to one vehicle on-plot, and nearby secondary schools include some rated as “Requires improvement” by Ofsted — important for families prioritising school performance.
Overall this home suits buyers seeking a modern, low-maintenance house in an affluent, comfortable neighbourhood. It’s especially well-suited to families wanting contemporary layouts and easy access to local amenities, while being realistic about pending charges and the modest on-site parking provision.
