About the Home
Laid out over three levels, The Shipwright is a superbly-planned 3-bedroom home with an astonishing amount of living space, plus dedicated room for home working It has been designed with the needs of a growing family in mind, and would also be an excellent choice of home for first-time buyers thinking about the future, or a couple looking for more space to enjoy together.
On the ground floor, the open-plan kitchen and dining area is thoughtfully laid out with a galley kitchen that provides plenty of surface space for preparation, and is perfect for socialising with guests or catching up with the family while you cook. The dining area itself is substantial, with room for a good-sized dining table, and French doors open onto the rear garden and draw plenty of light into the space.

The second floor is occupied by bedrooms 2 and 3, which are divided and in turn, afforded privacy by the family bathroom Both bedrooms are double in size which makes them well-suited to older children, or to use one as a guest room.
