Constructed by Cala in 2005, this impressive five-bedroom detached residence offers spacious living areas combined with a thoughtful, family-oriented layout. Located within a peaceful cul-de-sac, the property provides a tranquil retreat whilst remaining conveniently close to local amenities, highly regarded schools, and scenic walks through Laighills Park.
The inviting front door leads into a bright, welcoming hallway, setting the tone for the light-filled and impeccably presented interior. Elegantly finished with oak flooring that extends through the hallway, lounge, kitchen, and formal dining area, the flow of space is both cohesive and warm. The formal dining room at the front provides an ideal space for elegant family meals and entertaining guests. To the rear, the cosy lounge features a charming logburner, creating a perfect spot to relax. The heart of the home is an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area — a sociable hub designed for modern family living. The kitchen boasts classic shaker-style blue units, complemented by granite worktops and a high-spec Quooker boiling water tap. It also features a large larder cupboard and integrated appliances, including a spacious fridge, induction hob, double electric oven, and dishwasher. French doors open seamlessly onto the south-facing garden, enhancing the indoor-outdoor connection and encouraging effortless outdoor entertaining.
Practicalities are thoughtfully addressed, with a separate utility room housing a washing machine and tumble dryer, a cloakroom, and an integral double garage. An intelligent understairs cupboard also provides access to a bespoke wine cellar, adding character and valuable storage space.
Upstairs, five generously sized bedrooms provide versatile accommodation for families. The principal bedroom benefits from a Juliet balcony, a dressing area, and a contemporary ensuite featuring twin sinks and a large shower, updated just four years ago. A second bedroom also enjoys its own ensuite, while the remaining three bedrooms share a stylish family bathroom fitted with both a bath and a separate shower.
Externally, the property features a mono-block driveway with parking for two vehicles, an EV charging point, and solar panels with battery storage, promoting eco-friendly energy use. The enclosed south-facing rear garden offers a safe and sunny environment for children’s play or outdoor socialising.
