Read the full agent description

The property is presented in excellent, move-in condition and has been finished to an exceptional standard throughout, with a series of high-quality upgrades carefully chosen by the current owners. Notable enhancements include luxury ceramic flooring sourced from Porcelanosa, renowned for premium and durable finishes. The high-density, marble-effect porcelain tiles extend across the entire ground floor, offering an elegant aesthetic while providing outstanding resistance to scratches, stains, and moisture - ideal for busy family living and entertaining. The kitchen has also been upgraded with AEG premium appliances, including a double oven and five-burner gas hob, creating a highly functional space perfect for keen cooks and hosting gatherings. The property further benefits from roof-mounted solar panels, with capacity to extend the system for increased energy efficiency if desired.

Adding further reassurance for buyers, the home comes with the remainder of its 10-year NHBC warranty (nine years remaining). The sellers also commissioned a snagging report shortly after moving in; all items identified have since been fully resolved by Taylor Wimpey to a high standard, with documentation available on request.

Accommodation forms: A welcoming entrance hallway with a fresh cloakroom/W.C, a spacious dual-aspect living room, filled with natural light and offering a comfortable space to relax and unwind. The stylish white gloss kitchen with dining area provides the heart of the home, featuring a host of integrated appliances and French doors opening to the secure rear garden, ideal for family gatherings or summer entertaining. Off the kitchen, a useful utility room provides added storage and laundry space. The ground floor is finished with elegant marble-effect floor tiling, adding a touch of sophistication and practicality throughout. Upstairs, the principal bedroom benefits from a modern ensuite shower room with towel radiator, while three further bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests or home working. The family bathroom includes both a bath and a separate shower enclosure, complemented by a heated towel radiator. Externally, the rear garden is fully enclosed, laid to lawn with a small patio terrace – perfect for children or outdoor dining. A single garage and driveway to the front offer convenient parking and extra storage.
