Built in 2003 and lovingly maintained by its current owners for the past 21 years, this home has a wonderful atmosphere and a sense of warmth and care. It offers ample space for comfortable living with scope to add personal touches to truly make it your own. The sitting room overlooks the open space where there is plenty of wildlife - from the odd otter swimming by to foxes patrolling the banks, as well as squirrels and a variety of birds. Binoculars should always be at the ready! There is also a traditional style Victorian fireplace that adds to the property's ambiance. The kitchen was updated six years ago to soft closing units and all the appliances are included in the sale. A new boiler was installed three years ago and is still under warranty.
Outside, the attractive low maintenance courtyard garden, is a perfect spot for enjoying a morning coffee and enjoys sunshine for most of the day. There is parking for one car plus a garage that benefits from light and power.
Whether you're looking for a permanent residence, a lock-up-and-leave property or investment for the rental market, this home offers versatility to suit your lifestyle and must be viewed to fully appreciate all that it has to offer as well as the special location.
