The kitchen, which was renewed in 2019, serves as the heart of the home and is finished in a modern and luxurious style. It is equipped with various built in appliances, bringing together functionality and design in a practical layout. In 2025 the dishwasher was replaced with a new unit. Situated behind the kitchen is a utility room that provides additional space for kitchen related storage and appliances.
Moving to the first floor, there are two generous bedrooms. The bathroom on this level was also renovated in 2019 and features a stylish design with a spacious walk in shower, a second toilet and a washbasin. The finishes and fixtures in the bathroom are of a high standard, consistent with the quality of the renovation work carried out throughout the property.
The second floor provides another substantial bedroom, which can serve as a main bedroom, guest room or home office space depending on the needs of the occupants. This floor also offers additional storage space, making it particularly practical for families or those who require a dedicated workspace at home.
The outdoor area consists of a well maintained and low maintenance rear garden that faces northwest, offering good opportunities for enjoying sunshine during the afternoon and evening hours. The garden provides privacy and includes a wooden storage shed with electricity and a practical rear access path.
In terms of sustainability and recent improvements, this property has undergone substantial renewal. The interior was fully renovated between 2019 and 2020. In 2023 significant external work was completed, including the construction of the extension, complete renewal of the facade with re pointing and impregnation, and replacement of all window frames with UPVC frames fitted with HR++ double glazing. The roof was also renewed with bituminous roofing material in 2023. Eleven solar panels were installed in the same year, along with a new Remeha central heating boiler. In 2025 a new four sided skylight was fitted. The property benefits from a mechanical ventilation system and a Verisure camera security system.
The property has an energy label C, reflecting the various energy saving measures that have been implemented. Heating and hot water are provided by the gas fired Remeha boiler installed in 2023, which is owned rather than rented.
