Set in an award-winning development in the large, active village of Marnhull, this recently built detached house blends local stone character with contemporary finishes. The flexible layout offers 1,312 sq ft of well-planned accommodation: a dual-aspect sitting room with wood-burning stove, a superb designer kitchen/dining area with quartz worktops and integrated appliances, utility room, and three double bedrooms including an ensuite to the principal.
Practical day-to-day living is well catered for: mains gas central heating with underfloor heating to the ground floor, an enclosed rear garden and detached single garage with driveway. The home is ready to move into and comes with a 10-year NHBC guarantee and the advantage of no onward chain. Broadband speeds are fast and the village provides shops, pubs, primary schools and plenty of footpaths for countryside walks.
A family buyer will appreciate the nearby primary and secondary schools, very low local crime rate and the strong community amenities. The plot is modest rather than expansive, so while outside space is private and suitable for alfresco dining, it is not a large estate garden.
Material considerations are straightforward and factual: internal mobile signal can be limited in places, council tax is band E (above average), and there is a modest annual service charge for communal areas (£138.46). There are also restrictive covenants preventing motorhomes, caravans and large trailers. Overall this home offers modern, low-maintenance living with character stone façades and good village connectivity.
