Description

An exceptional and stunning detached family home which has, in recent years, undergone a complete remodeling and renovation programme and is ready to move straight into and call home.

Wooden flooring runs throughout the majority of the ground floor, with underfloor heating to the rear in the fully tiled orangery and kitchen.

To the rear, sits the large orangery with a spectacular lantern roof which allows light to flood in and there are large bifold doors to the outside too. The kitchen, with its exposed oak beams, has a range of units with granite surfaces, integrated NEFF appliances, and a spacious central island. There is also a utility room with walk in pantry adjoining the kitchen. A cloakroom and under stairs storage cupboard complete the ground floor accommodation.
