The 2,873 sq. ft. of accommodation includes a triple aspect sitting/dining room with glazed doors with wing windows to a terrace in the garden, and a wide opening to an open plan kitchen/breakfast room with bi-fold doors to the rear garden allowing a free flow through the space for modern family life and entertaining. There is also a study/playroom, and a utility/boot room with storage, plumbing for a washing machine, space for a tumble dryer, and a door to the garden. The entrance hall has a secure store and a cloakroom. The bedroom wing is accessed via the kitchen/breakfast room into an inner hall which has a built-in cupboard, a Velux skylight and access to four bedrooms and a four piece family bathroom. Two bedrooms have en suite shower rooms and the principal bedroom also has a walk-in wardrobe.

A particular feature of the property is the open plan kitchen/breakfast room which measures over 27 ft. and has exposed wooden flooring with underfloor heating. The kitchen is fitted with a range of units with complementary work surfaces incorporating a sink with a boiling hot water tap. The central island has a breakfast bar and a Neff induction hob, and other integrated appliances include a Neff hide and slide double oven, a dishwasher, warming drawers and a fridge/freezer. Floor to ceiling glazing includes bi fold doors to the entertaining terrace in the rear garden.

Why Buy New

1. Lower energy costs New-build properties are designed to be energy efficient, with modern insulation, windows, heating systems and appliances. This can help reduce energy consumption and monthly utility bills compared with many older properties. 2. Minimal maintenance and renovation costs Because everything in a new-build property is new, there is usually less need for immediate repairs, renovations or replacements. This means buyers can move in without having to spend significant amounts of money upgrading kitchens, bathrooms, windows, heating systems or other parts of the property. 3. Warranty and protection against defects New-build properties typically come with a warranty that provides protection against certain construction defects and structural issues. This gives buyers additional reassurance that if significant problems arise, they may have access to support or remedial work during the warranty period. 4. Modern layout/specification New-build homes are designed to meet modern lifestyles, often offering practical layouts, contemporary kitchens and bathrooms, better storage, modern technology and improved energy efficiency. Buyers may also have the opportunity to choose certain finishes and upgrades depending on the stage of construction. 5. Greater certainty over the first few years of ownership Buying a new-build can provide greater financial certainty because the property is unlikely to require major repairs or refurbishment immediately after purchase. This allows homeowners to budget more easily and enjoy their new home without the unexpected costs that can sometimes come with an older property.
