Beautifully presented and lovingly maintained by the current owners, this wonderful family home occupies a generous corner plot within a highly sought-after and rarely available exclusive development of just six properties. Ideally positioned within a popular village, the property enjoys a wealth of local amenities within easy walking distance, while offering spacious and versatile accommodation perfectly suited to modern family life. The impressive open-plan ground floor is centred around a fantastic kitchen/breakfast room, creating a superb social and entertaining space, complemented by a detached double garage and ample off-road parking. Outside, the fully enclosed garden provides a great degree of privacy and features gated side access, making it particularly useful for caravan storage or similar. Having been a much-loved family home for many years, this is a property that has clearly been cared for and enjoyed, and one that we feel deserves an early viewing.
