Property description
The Property Hub is pleased to present this four-bedroom semi-detached house located in the sought-after area of Abbotts Close.
Upon entering through the front door, you are welcomed into a spacious open-plan kitchen and breakfast room, which was previously the hallway and garage. The modern kitchen features integrated appliances, including a fridge-freezer, dishwasher, and double oven, as well as a hob with an overhead extractor and a sink with a draining board. The original kitchen has been transformed into a large utility room, providing ample space for additional kitchen facilities. It is equipped with plumbing for a washing machine, keeping it separate from the main living areas, along with a second sink and draining board for added use.
The ground floor also boasts two rear reception rooms, offering versatile spaces to suit your needs. The first room serves as a comfortable lounge, while the second can be used as an office, playroom, or even an additional bedroom if required. A large set of French doors in one of the rooms opens onto the rear garden, allowing for plenty of natural light and creating a bright and airy atmosphere. Additionally, there is a ground floor WC with a toilet and sink for extra convenience.
On the first floor, you will find four bedrooms. The main bedroom includes a large built-in wardrobe, minimising the need for extra furniture, and features an ensuite shower room with a toilet, sink, and a single shower cubicle. The second bedroom is also a spacious double with a built-in wardrobe, while the third bedroom is a smaller double. The fourth bedroom is currently used as an office but can function as a single bedroom, complete with a built-in wardrobe to maximise the space. A stylish and modern family bathroom is also located on this floor, fitted with a sink, toilet, and a bath with an overhead shower.
The rear garden offers a private retreat, featuring a patio area at the front and a lawned area beyond. There is also space for a shed at the rear, providing convenient storage options. At the front of the property, a concrete driveway provides parking for up to three cars and includes an electric vehicle (EV) charger for added practicality.
The property is fitted with solar panels and a battery system installed by the current owners. These significantly reduce electricity costs, particularly during the summer months, while also powering the EV charger and contributing to the home's overall energy efficiency. In 2024 the solar panels generated 4336kwh of electricity and the property currently has a Smart Export Guarantee of 15p per kwh.
This property offers a combination of modern living, flexible spaces, and eco-friendly features, making it an ideal family home.
