Read the full agent description
An excellent opportunity to acquire a multi-generational family home with a self-contained annexe, offering flexible accommodation ideally suited to extended family, independent relatives, older children or those seeking dedicated guest or work-from-home space.
The main house provides approximately 1,190 sq ft of accommodation, complemented by a separate annexe of approximately 400 sq ft, creating around 1,590 sq ft in total.
The ground floor of the main house opens with an entrance hall leading to an attractive sitting room, beautifully presented with feature fireplace and contemporary décor. To the rear is a spacious and stylish kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with an extensive range of units, contrasting cabinetry, integrated appliances and a central peninsula providing additional preparation space and breakfast seating. French doors open directly onto the rear garden, creating an excellent connection between the house and outside entertaining areas.
A separate dining room provides valuable additional reception space and could equally suit a family room depending on requirements. A ground floor cloakroom/utility space completes the main accommodation on this level.
To the first floor are three well-proportioned bedrooms together with a family bathroom. The principal bedroom is generously sized, while the remaining bedrooms provide excellent flexibility for family living, children's rooms or home working.
A major feature of the property is the self-contained annexe, which provides genuinely independent accommodation. The floor plan shows an open-plan living/kitchen area, separate double bedroom and utility/shower room, with its own independent access. This makes the property particularly appealing for families requiring multi-generational living without compromising privacy.
Outside, the home benefits from a driveway to the front providing off-road parking. The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped with lawn, planted borders and seating areas. Altogether, this is an unusually flexible family home combining attractive presentation, generous accommodation and the significant benefit of a self-contained annexe.
