IF YOU LIVED HERE…

Arriving home is a breeze with the paved driveway providing effortless off-street parking and a welcoming first impression. Inside, the property unfolds into well-balanced spaces designed for easy living and relaxed entertaining, offering comfort and character throughout. Step into a bright hallway with access to a handy storage area and stairs rising to the first floor. The kitchen, set at the front, is filled with natural light from a large window. Warm tones and inviting textures combine with spacious worktops and thoughtfully designed cabinetry, while open shelving adds charm. Distinctive tiling completes the look, making this an ideal setting for both daily life and gathering with friends.

To the rear, the generous reception room spans the width of the home, with double glazed doors that create a seamless connection to the garden. The flow from indoors to out is perfect for entertaining, with timber flooring and finishes adding depth, and wide windows ensuring a bright, uplifting feel. The south facing garden is a true retreat — low-maintenance yet welcoming, with raised beds, established planting, and ample space for al fresco dining or simply soaking up the sun.

Upstairs, the airy landing offers space for additional furniture or a reading nook. The main bedroom stretches across the full width of the property, with spacious proportions and views of mature greenery.

A fresh, light-filled bathroom completes the layout, combining retro charm with clean lines and characterful tiling.
