The home, in the agent’s words
Read the full agent description
A spacious, immaculately presented and extended 3 bedroom semi-detached home, located conveniently close to local amenities. A particularly rare and valuable feature is the gated driveway parking for two vehicles, something seldom found in this location.
Approaching the property, the driveway leads to steps rising up to an attractive front patio garden, an ideal spot for a table and chairs to enjoy the sun whilst taking in pleasant views across the town. A door then opens into the entrance hallway to the side elevation, where stairs rise to the first-floor landing with under stairs storage. From here, access is provided to a well-proportioned living room, featuring sliding doors that open directly onto the front patio, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor feel. The room is further enhanced by a charming wood burner, adding warmth and character.
Leading on from the living room is a generously sized open-plan kitchen/diner, offering ample worktop space, quality cabinetry and a breakfast island, making it a practical and sociable hub of the home. To the rear, the property has been extended to provide an impressively large utility room. This versatile space offers excellent storage but could also be adapted or divided to create a home office or additional reception area if required. A door from here leads directly out to the rear garden.
Upstairs, the property offers three bedrooms, two of which are comfortable doubles. The principal bedroom enjoys particularly attractive views across the town, while the third bedroom, currently utilised as a dressing room, is a single. Completing the accommodation is a family bathroom fitted with a three-piece suite and stylish panelling.
The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped and arranged over several tiers, creating a variety of usable outdoor spaces. Immediately outside the utility room is a large patio area, perfect for outdoor dining and entertaining. Steps lead up through the garden, where you will find a combination of further patio areas, an artificial lawned area, and a raised decking area at the top. Additional features include storage sheds and a charming summer house, which also benefits from elevated views across the town.
Overall, this is a superb home offering a blend of modern living, versatile space and rare parking.
