An opportunity to acquire a deceptively spacious timber framed semi detached home which has seen a tasteful programme of modernisation over the years and offers versatile living over two floors with the potential to be used both as a single or two storey home making it ideal for those looking to downsize.

The property benefits from modern fixtures and fittings with the accommodation comprising an initial open plan breakfast kitchen beautifully appointed with a generous range of contemporary units and integrated appliances with a good level of built in storage. The kitchen links through into the sitting room with an aspect over the rear garden. This, in turn, links into a central hallway with dining room/ground floor bedroom three which also links into a conservatory at the rear and, in turn, the garden. The conservatory area is split into two providing an additional sun room overlooking the garden. The ground floor also benefits from a beautifully appointed contemporary shower room. To the first floor there are two further double bedrooms, one of which benefits from ensuite facilities.

The property is tastefully presented throughout in neutral decoration and benefits from UPVC double glazing and gas central heating.

As well as the internal accommodation the property occupies a delightful plot which is generous by modern standards, set well back from the lane behind an established frontage with ample off road parking which, in turn, leads through into the rear garden. This is again an excellent outdoor space of good proportions, having a central lawn, well stocked perimeter borders, several seating areas providing different spaces to sit and relax, particularly in the summer months. Encompassed within the garden is both a useful timber storage shed and a substantial timber cabin which would make an excellent home office, home gym or simply a workshop/storage shed.

Overall viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
