A detached five bedroom executive home with generously proportioned accommodation and mature gardens in a quiet cul de sac.

Description
Offering spacious accommodation and mature gardens, this detached family home is situated on an executive development that’s popular with families for its peaceful setting and proximity to the village pre-school and primary school. The house is beautifully presented in a contemporary style and offers well-planned accommodation with good-size and enclosed gardens, in a particularly private plot. The property was purchased as a new build in 1994 and has been extended to the rear to create the modern kitchen, with cosmetic improvements throughout and the bathrooms updated in 2017. The house is ideal for busy family life and there are a number of premium additions, such as underfloor heating in the kitchen, utility and bathroom adding to the house’s considerable appeal.

The house is an excellent size with plenty of space for family time as well as entertaining. The kitchen in particular, is a highlight, offering a seamless integration with the existing house and providing a spacious, light-filled room for parties and family occasions; bifold doors increase the space into the garden in the summer months. The kitchen is well equipped with two islands, great storage, and there is space for both sitting and dining areas. Separate to the open plan living space there is a dual aspect formal reception room and a dining room. A good-size utility room adjoins the kitchen and provides access to both the garden and the attached double garage. Upstairs there are five bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en suite, and a family bath/shower room.

The house occupies a spacious plot at the end of the cul de sac, with private parking to the front and a double garage. The pretty front garden is attractively landscaped with a number of shrubs and provides an excellent first impression, while the rear garden is a great size, with mature trees and shrubs all around the boundary making it feel fantastically private. A paved terrace leads out onto a level lawn and there is a separate seating area to the rear under a pretty pergola.
