Situated within convenient reach of the town centre, mainline station, schools and a wide range of amenities, the property combines a central setting with a high degree of privacy and seclusion.
    Approached via electric gates, a spacious driveway provides extensive parking and turning space for numerous vehicles, complemented by a recently constructed double garage with electric door. Attractive planting and mature boundaries create an impressive first impression.
    The accommodation is arranged over three floors and has been thoughtfully designed for modern living. A welcoming reception hall with wood flooring, integrated storage and bespoke shelving forms the central hub of the home.
    The standout kitchen and dining room is a superb triple-aspect space filled with natural light. Contemporary cabinetry is complemented by solid wood worktops and a substantial central island providing additional workspace and informal seating. Integrated appliances and generous dining space make the room equally suited to day-to-day living and entertaining. Bi-fold doors open onto the garden, creating an excellent connection between inside and out.
    The principal reception room is elegantly presented and centred around a contemporary fireplace. A garden room enjoys direct access to the terrace and offers flexible additional living space. Two further reception rooms and a dedicated study provide excellent versatility for home working, hobbies, a playroom or formal dining. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.
    The first floor hosts four generous double bedrooms, all benefitting from fitted storage. The principal suite features a dressing room and a four-piece en suite bathroom. Two further bedrooms enjoy en suite shower rooms, while a well-appointed main bathroom serves the remaining accommodation.
    The second floor provides two further double bedrooms, a shared shower room and additional storage, making it particularly well suited to guests, older children or multigenerational living.
    Outside, the landscaped rear garden provides a private setting enclosed by brick walling and fencing. Mainly laid to lawn and enhanced by established planting and borders, it offers ample space for relaxation, recreation and outdoor entertaining. A generous, paved terrace is ideal for al fresco dining, while a detached garden studio provides useful ancillary space suitable for a home office, gym or hobbies room.

I was taken aback by just how much flexible, living space this beautiful family offers and also to me the convenience of being in such easy reach of the town and station, is such a big draw.
