This stunning, beautifully presented and extended detached four-bedroom family residence is an absolute must-see!

Elegant Entrance
Step through the oak front door into an inviting entrance hall, where contemporary laminate flooring meets the warm glow of ceiling spotlights. The staircase ahead leads to the first floor, while an array or doors guide you to the ground floor's thoughtfully designed spaces.
Versatile Study
On the right, the study extends the welcoming laminate flooring. Currently used as an additional ground-floor bedroom, this space features front-facing windows and a handy open cupboard under the stairs, perfect for storage.
Cosy Sitting Room
To the left, the spacious sitting room awaits, bathed in natural light from a front bay window. The room exudes warmth with its recessed exposed brick fireplace, crowned with an oak mantel and inset cast iron log burner. Additional windows overlook the serene rear garden, enhancing the room's inviting ambiance.
Spectacular Living Kitchen
At the heart of this home is the breathtaking 'L' shaped living kitchen. Boasting a stunning array of walnut fronted eye and base level units, ample cream Polygranite surfaces, and an undermounted ceramic sink, this kitchen is a chef's paradise. The Falcon professional range oven and freestanding LG American-style fridge freezer add to the luxury, while the integrated dishwasher and island unit with breakfast bar ensure functionality. Porcelain tiled flooring and French doors opening to the rear garden complete this perfect space.
Practical Utility Room
Adjacent to the kitchen, the utility room provides oak-fronted base level units, roll edge laminated work surfaces, and space for both a washing machine and a condenser dryer. A rear lobby with a side window houses a cloaks cupboard and offers additional access to the rear garden.
Ground Floor Shower Room
Convenience continues with a ground floor shower room, featuring a white three-piece suite, including a low flush WC, pedestal wash hand basin, and double shower cubicle, complemented by a chrome heated towel rail.
First Floor Sanctuary
Upstairs, you'll find four double bedrooms. The master bedroom offers tranquil views of the rear garden, while bedroom two includes built-in wardrobes for ample storage. Bedrooms three and four also enjoy picturesque rear and front views, respectively.
Family Bathroom
The family bathroom is a haven of relaxation, featuring a white four-piece suite: A low flush WC, pedestal wash hand basin, panelled bath, and shower cubicle, all accentuated by a chrome heated towel rail.
Outdoor Bliss
Outside, the property continues to impress. The front boasts a block paved driveway and charming planted gardens behind a low-level fence. High hedged boundaries to the side and rear add to the curb appeal and privacy. The rear garden is a beautifully lawned oasis, with colourful shrub and flower beds with two paved patio areas, ideal for outdoor entertaining.
Double Garage and Additional Driveway
Off St. Catharine's Way, a second driveway leads to a detached brick-built double garage with an electric up-and-over door, offering additional pedestrian access to the rear garden.
