Description
This attractive modern home provides over 1,700 sq ft of accommodation across two floors plus a double garage, all set within mature, well-established gardens. The layout has been thoughtfully extended and reconfigured to suit contemporary family life, blending generously proportioned rooms with high-quality finishes and excellent natural light throughout. The landscaped rear garden and large entertaining terrace create a wonderful connection between inside and out, and the house is ideally located on a quiet no-through road within walking distance of the village centre. The property further benefits from solar panels located on the rear pitch of the roof.
Ground Floor
A wide entrance hall with parquet flooring sets the tone for the house — smart, calm and well-planned — and features bespoke built-in cupboards for coats and storage. A dual-aspect living room lies to the left, a particularly bright and spacious room with a wood-burning stove and French doors opening directly onto the rear terrace.
To the rear, the kitchen, dining and informal living space spans the full width of the house. This large open-plan area is flooded with natural light and offers a highly sociable layout ideal for modern living. The kitchen is fitted with warm wood cabinetry, dark worktops, tiled splashbacks and quality integrated appliances including a Neff induction hob and double ovens. There is also space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, neatly arranged along one run of units beneath the window.
The dining area features bi-fold doors opening out to the rear terrace and garden, creating seamless flow between indoors and out. Located at the front of the home is a generous study with views over the front garden.
Also on the ground floor is a WC cloakroom, beautifully fitted with bespoke cabinetry, and a dedicated home office at the front of the house, enjoying a quiet outlook over the front garden.
First Floor
Upstairs, four well-proportioned double bedrooms are arranged around a central landing. The main bedroom is positioned at the rear and overlooks the south-facing garden. It features a generous dressing area with built-in wardrobes, and an en suite shower room with a corner shower, basin and WC — all naturally lit by a skylight.
The second and third bedrooms are good-sized doubles — one to the front and one to the rear — and provide ample space for freestanding furniture or fitted wardrobes. The fourth bedroom is also a full double and works equally well as a guest room, nursery or additional home office.
A stylish family bathroom serves the remaining rooms and includes a bath with overhead shower, basin, and WC. It has a large window and neutral finishes throughout.
Gardens
The rear garden is a true highlight. Bi-fold doors from both the dining and living rooms open directly onto a raised terrace — a perfect spot for entertaining or relaxing, seamlessly connected to the interior. The terrace steps down to a beautifully designed gravelled seating area, surrounded by richly planted borders including maples, peonies, lavender and ornamental grasses.
Beyond is a large, private lawn framed by mature trees and hedging that provide year-round colour and screening. At the far end is a smart kitchen garden with raised beds, perfect for growing produce, and a pergola seating area ideal for summer barbecues.
To the front, a gravel driveway provides parking for several cars and leads to a detached double garage, with additional lawn and planting creating a welcoming approach.
