A footpath from the enclosed front garden leads you to the lovely solid oak entrance door. Once inside there is a useful porch for kicking off shoes. An ideally placed cloakroom is situated beneath the stairs.
A door to the left of the porch opens into the impressive open-plan kitchen/dining/family room, all of which benefit from an abundance of natural light via the expanse of windows. The dining area provides lots of space for a large table and it has a fitted cupboard perfect for storage.

Completing the L-shaped downstairs space is the stunning fully fitted kitchen, full of light from its eye-catching bi-fold doors. The kitchen is fitted with an array of white eye-level and floor cupboards for storage, along with top-end fitted Bosch appliances including a dishwasher, oven/microwave, self-cleaning fan oven and four ring-induction hob top. A good sized island provides further corian work surfaces and doubles up as a breakfast bar, allowing for more casual daily dining. The island includes the induction hob, further storage below and the essential wine fridge! The vaulted ceiling to the kitchen is another tasteful touch that maximises the feeling of space and airiness.
A separate reception room on the ground floor is accessed via the family space through glass panelled double doors. The dual aspect sitting room is presently used as more of an adult retreat with a dual fuel log burner and an attractive sash bay window offering views of Southborough Common.
A flight of stairs with stunning exposed brick wall lead to the first floor, with two sky lights making it a light and airy approach.
On the first floor you will find the first two bedrooms and family bathroom. Sitting to the rear is triple aspect master bedroom with sash windows and a large fitted wardrobe. Off of the master bedroom is a useful fitted laundry room with plumbing for a washing machine/tumble dryer.

Bedroom four occupies the front of the first floor and is dual aspect with pleasant views and lots of natural light. The bedroom has a pretty Victorian fireplace along with a fitted cupboard inset to the left of the chimney breast.
Sitting conveniently in between both bedrooms is the family bathroom with its striking free-standing oval bath immediately grabbing the eye. A walk-in shower with rain head attachment, WC and wash basin complete the room.
A final flight of stairs lead to the second floor, almost a mirror image of the first floor.

Outside is the enclosed garden with dark wood fencing creating a sense of seclusion, a private haven to enjoy the outdoor space. The composite decked area is perfect for outdoor dining whilst surrounding raised flower beds add a touch of colour during the summer months. For children the garden comes complete with a low maintenance astro-turf lawn, ideal all year round!
