      French doors from the entrance hall open to the light and airy sitting room with bi-fold doors opening to the rear paved terrace, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out. Further reception rooms include a generous family room and a study fitted with Neville Johnson cupboards and bookshelves.

      The large fitted kitchen/breakfast room features a breakfast bar, bi-fold doors opening to the rear garden terrace and underfloor heating. Integrated appliances include a double oven with hob and extractor, and a dishwasher. It offers ample space for a large dining table and sofa, making it a wonderfully sociable space. It is complimented by a utility room that also provides garden access and includes a built-in fridge/freezer, water softener, and plumbing for white goods.

      Upstairs, the spacious principal bedroom has built-in cupboards and full-length under-eaves storage. Its generous shower room benefits from underfloor heating and a large roof light. The guest bedroom includes an en suite shower room, built-in wardrobe and under-eaves storage. There are two further bedrooms, one of which has been converted into a home office with Neville Johnson fitted cabinetry and also has space to accommodate an occasional single bed. The family bathroom is fitted with a bath and separate shower enclosure.

      The provision of both a computer room and study could make it ideal for those working from home.
