This 4-BEDROOM DETACHED modern family home with attractive Sussex style part-tile hung elevations, is set within a HIGHLY DESIRABLE CUL-DE-SAC of similarly styled houses and apartments constructed by Rydon Homes in 1988, whilst extremely convenient for the highly regarded primary and secondary schools as well as the picturesque village High Street, all of which are within a short walk.

The property, having undergone a kitchen extension in the early 2000s, has been well-maintained while more recently in the past two years updated by the current owners with a lovely refitted kitchen, co-ordinating utility room and main bathroom which includes a state-of-the-art ‘Japanese’ smart-controlled WC, also installed to the en-suite shower room.

The well-arranged accommodation in brief comprises: a spacious RECEPTION HALL with CLOAKROOM/WC, a bright SITTING ROOM spanning front to rear featuring a square bay window, coal-effect gas fireplace and patio doors to the rear garden. An additional and versatile reception room to the front makes an ideal STUDY or FAMILY/PLAYROOM. To the rear is a well-appointed, re-fitted Shaker-style KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM finished in white wood-grain effect wall and base cabinets, complemented with white sparkle Quartz worksurfaces and LVT flooring in an attractive herringbone design. Integrated appliances include an eye-level electric multifunction oven with microwave above, 4-burner electric ceramic hob with extractor hood over, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. Positioned off is a UTILITY ROOM with matching cabinetry and flooring whilst equipped with a secondary sink, spaces/plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer (available by separate negotiation) and a door into the integral garage (offering great scope for conversion STPP).

From the reception hall, a staircase rises to the FIRST-FLOOR landing where there are FOUR BEDROOMS TWO DOUBLES AND TWO SINGLES, all of which benefit from fitted wardrobes. The PRINCIPAL BEDROOM enjoys an EN-SUITE SHOWER ROOM while all the remaining bedrooms are served by a recently refitted FAMILY BATHROOM.

Benefits include: gas fired central heating to radiators, double glazed windows throughout with leaded-lights to front, modern alarm system, new Glow-Worm boiler (2024), replacement LED downlighters to ground floor and convenient central village location.
