Set within a plot of approximately 0.2 acres backing onto the showground fields, the house combines generous proportions, light-filled interiors, ample parking and a highly convenient position close to schools, town amenities and public transport.

Extending to almost 3,000 sq ft of accommodation, the house is currently configured for multi-generational living, comprising of a one/two bedroom apartment on the ground floor, with a communal entrance and a spacious three-bedroom duplex apartment arranged over the first and second floors.

There is also a double bedroom, a study or smaller bedroom, a bathroom and cloakroom, allowing this level to function as a comfortable apartment or as part of a larger family home.

The first and second floor apartment can be accessed either internally from the main house or independently via a private rear staircase. This upper accommodation includes a large reception room, a well-appointed kitchen, a bathroom and three double bedrooms. One bedroom benefits from built-in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room, while the top-floor bedroom is a particularly appealing space, complete with an ante-room and a large Juliet balcony overlooking the fields beyond. A small balcony seating area adjoining the rear staircase provides a pleasant spot from which to enjoy the rural outlook.

Throughout the property, large windows flood the interiors with natural light, enhancing the bright and fresh décor which is presented in neutral tones and ready for immediate occupation. The house also offers a generous amount of storage, including a large insulated loft, adding to its practicality for modern family living.

The rear gardens are level and predominantly laid to lawn, framed by mature shrubs and trees. The garden has a variety of seating areas to allow enjoyment of the space throughout the day. A substantial garden studio further enhances the versatility of the property, providing potential for use as a home office, creative workspace or leisure room. Additional features include side access to the front, an outside tap and useful understairs storage accessed from the external staircase.

The exterior render has been replaced within the last five years, and the property is offered to the market chain free.
