About this property

  • Built in 2008 and owned by our clients since new, 6 New Heritage Way is an attractive double fronted modern house, offering well-proportioned, versatile accommodation which is well-presented throughout, decorated in a stylish muted colour palette.

    The ground floor accommodation lies off the welcoming entrance hall, from which the stairs rise to the first floor. There are two formal reception rooms: a dining room overlooking the green and a dual-aspect sitting room which has a granite fireplace with inset coal-effect electric fire and French doors opening to the garden. The house also benefits from a good-sized study, which could also be used as a playroom or snug.

    The kitchen is fitted with granite surfaces, a central island and good range of gloss cream wall hung and under-counter units. Integrated Bosch appliances include a double oven, gas hob, dishwasher and a fridge freezer; the kitchen is served by a utility room space for a washing machine and a tumble dryer, and access to the cloakroom. A good-sized study completes the ground floor.

    There are four bedrooms on the first floor, lying off a central galleried landing with airing cupboard. Bedroom one has fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room; the remaining three double bedrooms (one of which has fitted wardrobes) are served by a family bathroom with suite including a bath and separate shower cubicle.

    Outside
    6 New Heritage Way fronts on to the green in the centre of New Heritage Way and has a lovely outlook over this open space; there is access to the house on foot via a pathway and steps from the road.

    The rear garden is of a particularly good size, mainly laid to lawn and well-enclosed by close-board fencing and hedging, giving a good degree of privacy. A large paved terrace spans the rear of the house, with a timber pergola and brick-built pizza oven to one side; the terrace adjoins a further area of decking extending around to the side of the house, creating a large space ideal for outdoor entertaining and dining.

    Steps descend to a courtesy door opening to the double garage, which has power connected. A gate opens from the garden to a parking area ahead of the garage, which is accessed via an access road to the west of the house.

    Agent's Note
    Residents of New Heritage Way pay an annual charge for the maintenance of the common land, chapel and playgrounds. It is currently in the region of £180-190 every six months.
