This contemporary property is incredibly spacious and ideal for modern family living. With its attractive exterior and bright, inviting interior, this home is delightful both inside and out.
As you enter the property, you're greeted by a bright and airy entrance hall with pale blue walls and neutral floor tiles which continue into the kitchen/dining room, creating a lovely sense of flow and space.
Ahead of you is a large kitchen/dining room. This is the heart of the home and a wonderfully bright room thanks to multiple windows and skylights. The neutrally decorated kitchen features modern shaker-style cabinetry in cream with coordinated wooden work surfaces. The dishwasher is integrated and there is space for a range cooker and American-style fridge-freezer. There's plenty of storage space and it’s a fantastic space for preparing meals. It’s easy to imagine yourself perched at the kitchen peninsula, enjoying a cup of freshly brewed coffee or perhaps a glass of wine with friends. The dining area has ample space for a dining table and chairs and is ideal for enjoying relaxed family meals or entertaining friends. Bifold doors open directly onto the patio, creating a seamless flow between indoors and out - perfect for summer entertaining or keeping an eye on children playing in the garden. The adjacent utility room is fitted with the same style units and work surfaces and benefits from direct access to the garden – particularly handy if you are returning home with a muddy dog and/or children!
Located at the front of the house, the generously sized sitting room is the perfect place to relax after a busy day. Featuring practical wooden flooring and a fireplace with wooden surround, the room has plenty of space for a couple of comfy sofas, alongside other furniture. Whether you're relaxing with family or hosting guests, this room provides the ideal setting.
On the opposite side of the house is an incredibly versatile study. A large room benefiting from its own entrance at the front of the property plus a cloakroom, it’s a fantastic asset if you’re running a business from home. Alternatively, it could easily be repurposed – perhaps as a family room or playroom. Completing the downstairs is an additional cloakroom.
On the first floor are four well-proportioned double bedrooms, the larger two of which have fitted wardrobes. One bedroom also benefits from its own ensuite shower room with a modern white bathroom suite. The owners are currently using one of the smaller bedrooms as a sewing room, but it would make an equally good study. The family bathroom is also located on this floor and features a smart marbled wall finish and a contemporary white suite, including a vanity unit and full-size bath with shower over
On the second floor is the principal bedroom suite – a real sanctuary to escape to. The bright and airy bedroom is spacious and tranquil, featuring a soft grey feature wall and coordinating carpet. The bedroom also has a dressing area with fitted wardrobes plus an ensuite shower room featuring colourful mosaic walls in shades of blue and modern white sanitaryware.
Outside, the east-facing garden is a lovely feature of the property and ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Features include a lawn, patio - which is perfect for relaxing in the sun or holding barbecues - and a useful large shed. The front garden is laid to lawn with a block-paved driveway to the side.
This attractive and sizeable family home offers spacious, flexible living for now - and for years to come.

“I can recommend the services of Wellington Evans unreservedly and without hesitation. James was consistently responsive, proactive and professional whilst also very personable. To us as purchasers, James felt like an honest broker between ourselves and the vendor. He worked brilliantly well with our solicitor, Elite Conveyancing, and the vendor, navigating a number of bumps along the road to achieve our completed transaction in around 2 months from initial viewing.”
Elaine Baker, House Purchase in ApostlesFebruary 2024
“I used Wellington Evans to sell a property, they went above and beyond for what was a complicated process at times. We had used a different agency previously, and not had much interest. When WE came in, we made a plan to refresh the property and marketing approach which saw many more viewers and an offer. James was great at helping me figure out the next best move and the advice they gave from start to finish was excellent. Lovely, supportive and involved team, who I wouldn't hesitate to recommend and use again myself.”
Vicky, House Sale in QuadrantMarch 2024
“Best estate agent we’ve ever had. We went on a bit of a journey with our house and Nick was always positive, pro-active and completely open with us along the way. He and James are vastly experienced but their modern approach sets them apart. You can tell they really care about what they do. It’s not just about selling houses, it’s about helping people move home and doing what’s best for the situation. If you want an estate agent that’s in your corner, we’d recommend Nick and Wellington Evans in a heartbeat.”
