Across the rear of the property, the living-dining-kitchen area unfolds. This is well designed with discrete sectioning to separate the areas whilst still maintaining an open and spacious feel. The whole area sports oak Karndean flooring and is lit by both recessed downlights and natural light filtering through Velux windows above, windows overlooking the side of the property and bi-folding doors stretching across the rear with fitted plantation shutters.

Continuing through to the kitchen area, this space is bright and features a plethora of well-appointed soft-close wall and base units in a dark grey, topped with a Silestone upstand countertops with vein design.

The central island provides seating for quick meals and further cupboard space.
From the the kitchen, a timber door with glazed insets leads through to a boot room area, having a slate-effect tiled flooring and access through the composite stable door with glazed inset to the rear garden. A further door leads to the double garage with power and automatic lighting. The garage is fitted with matted flooring, offering an ideal space for a gymnasium or further storage and has an integrated utility area with plumbing for an automatic washing machine and space for a tumble dryer available.

Fully tiled in shades of grey, the en suite comprises a three-piece suite of walk-in shower cubicle with electric shower unit, a wall-mounted drawer bank with inset console-style wash hand basin, and a wall-mounted w.c. Having a part-opaque rear window and recessed downlights, the en suite also has a black ladder-style heated rail to warm the towels.
The further three spacious double bedrooms – one, two and three - have sash windows to the front, rear and side, respectively, pendant lighting, traditional style radiators and more than ample space for clothes storage furniture. Each bedroom also benefits from a wall mounted television point.

The attractive, white rendered, family home is set within almost an acre of private gardens and paddock and benefits from two gated entrances: one from Bradshaw Lane leading directly to a cobbled area providing parking for numerous vehicles and the integral double garage with two up-and-over doors, power and light and incorporating gymnasium and utility areas. The second, part-Tarmacadam and pebbled driveway leads from Alder Lane, meanders past a further parking area and finishes at the cobbled frontage. Also, to the front are two lawn areas, bordered by box tree hedging, have a pedestrian pathway cutting through to the front door. A wisteria-laden arbour with timber gate gives way to the rear wrap-around lawn garden, bounded by panel fencing, tall mixed hedging and dotted with fruit and specimen trees. To the rear of the garage, a fence enclosed courtyard provides a dog run and has space for a kennel. A raised Indian stone sun terrace runs across the rear elevation and provides the perfect alfresco dining area whilst, alongside, there is a decked area supporting a cedar clad summer house with balcony and exterior lighting. Two sets of bi-folding doors open to the bar area with laminate flooring and recessed downlights whilst folding interior doors open to a lounge area with wall-mounted television point. To the side of the summerhouse is a further patio for a second dining area or easy relaxation.
