About The Property...... Completed in 2021 with the balance of a 10-year warranty, the house is one of the larger designs on Westfield Park, having a projecting two-storey gable wing to the rear elevation, creating a spacious L-shaped living/dining kitchen and a master bedroom suite over, of generous proportions with a second ensuite shower room, in addition to a second bedroom also with ensuite shower room. The property has brick-faced cavity walls with feature stone lintels on the front elevation and modern double glazing throughout all finished in grey uPVC externally but white inside; the pitched timber roof structures are covered in concrete interlocking tiles. The building is highly insulated and a glance at the EPC will show that this is an efficient and cost-effective home. A gated driveway gives access to the semi-detached double garage which is of brick-faced, twin skin construction beneath a pitched timber roof covered in tiles and complementing the main house.

Heating is by a gas-fired central heating system with digitally-controlled, zoned, underfloor heating to the ground floor rooms, which have contemporary laminated floor coverings. There are conventional radiators to the first-floor rooms and a gas point has been provided for a fire in the lounge though the owners have felt no need to install one, as the house is so warm. There is also a security alarm system.

The driveway provides ample parking space for a number of cars and the owners commissioned an additional parking area at the front of the house together with a pathway leading around the garage to a bin storage area, when they purchased the property new.

This excellent family house has been well maintained by the present owners and is decorated in attractive colour schemes with versatile rooms including four double bedrooms (two with ensuite shower rooms), landing and a family bathroom with bath and shower. On the ground floor there is a spacious hall, a superb, large living/dining kitchen with two sets of bi-folding French double-glazed doors and comprehensive built-in units, matching utility room and cloakroom/WC, lounge and a versatile further reception room which could be a snug, study, fifth ground floor bedroom or playroom. The rooms have attractive, moulded two-panel interior doors with brushed stainless-steel handles.

The house enjoys an excellent position on the southern fringe of Westfield Park, backing onto and elevated above sought-after St. Mary's Park and with a bungalow beyond the rear boundary, allowing the house to enjoy some spectacular sunsets and fine views across the town centre, taking in the splendid spire of St. James' Church.
