4 Bedroom Detached House

REF: JC0739 -  Some houses tick boxes; others make family life easier.

This is very much the second.

Tucked away on one of the area's most sought-after developments and offered with no onward chain, this family home has the sort of layout that just works. There's plenty of space, plenty of flexibility and, unlike many modern homes, a garden that doesn't leave you staring directly into the neighbour's washing line.

Inside you'll find a welcoming entrance hall leading through to a spacious lounge. This is the room you'll naturally gravitate towards on a winter evening. Think log burner doing its thing while the latest Netflix obsession takes centre stage on the media wall.

The heart of the home sits at the rear. A superb open-plan kitchen and dining space provides plenty of room for family meals, homework sessions and those occasions when everyone somehow ends up gathered in the kitchen despite there being perfectly good seating elsewhere. Stretching across the rear of the kitchen is a stunning orangery that transforms the way this home lives. Flooded with natural light and enjoying views over the garden, it's the sort of room that gets used for everything. Morning coffee, children's play space, home working, summer entertaining, hiding from the children... we'll let you decide.

Upstairs you'll find four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys its own dressing area and en-suite shower room, giving parents a little sanctuary away from the chaos downstairs. Bedroom two is a generous double, while bedrooms three and four offer flexibility as a nursery, child's bedroom, dressing room or home office depending on what life currently throws at you.

The family bathroom is beautifully presented and features a freestanding bath that looks like it belongs in a boutique hotel rather than a busy family home.

Outside, the rear garden is a real standout feature. Designed for easy maintenance, it offers a large artificial lawn, patio areas and a raised decked entertaining space that's ready for summer barbecues, garden furniture and perhaps one or two drinks that accidentally turn into several. Backing onto mature woodland, the setting feels far more private and established than many properties on modern developments, creating a lovely green backdrop throughout the year.

Modern detached homes in desirable locations are always popular. Modern detached homes with four bedrooms, an orangery, woodland views, a fantastic garden and no chain don't tend to hang around for long.
