3 bed detached house for sale

Sanders Road, Bow EX17

Tucked away, off the main road and only just a little over 10 years old, this modern village house has a lovely outlook to the front over a spacious green. The facilities of Bow are on hand with a wonderful shop, garden centre with café and the primary school, all within easy reach. The house was built as an individual build and the current owner has been here since new. Due to its age, there is plenty to shout about with a modern open layout to the ground floor, central heating, solar thermal hot water and it’s all presented in excellent condition. It’s an economical house to run and with off-road parking and level gardens - it’s got a lot going for it.

The layout gives a welcoming hallway with useful WC and this leads to the kitchen which is open plan to the living/dining room. We love this layout, it allows plenty of light throughout and connects the spaces well. There is a useful breakfast bar which helps to mark the spaces too. The living room has a modern wood-burning stove and french doors to one of the gardens. On the first floor are 3 bedrooms and a well fitted family bathroom. Again, the décor has been well maintained and there’s little for a new owner to have to do.

Outside, the house has off-road parking to the front with easy to maintain planted beds and then the gardens are fenced off to both sides. There is access along the back which connects the two gardens and you can get to either garden via the kitchen or living room doors. There’s a surprising amount of outside space on offer, all level with lawns and seating areas with some paving and storage too in the form of a timber shed.

Please see the floorplan for room sizes.
