Four bedroom brick beauty!

This is a home that feels considered from the moment you arrive. The frontage has real presence, with double doors framed by pillars and softened by two striking glass inset windows that give a glimpse straight into the tiled entrance foyer. It sets the tone immediately: solid, spacious and designed to be lived in.

At the centre of the home sits the kitchen and it truly earns that position. It’s a generous, hardworking space with a double oven, island bench, walk-in pantry, two breakfast bars and storage everywhere you turn. It opens out through floor-to-ceiling, atrium-style glazing to a circular paved patio that becomes an extension of daily life. Morning coffee, summer dinners, quiet evenings - it all flows easily here.

On either side of the kitchen are two separate living areas, giving flexibility that’s hard to find. One can be calm and relaxed, the other lively and social, without competing for space. There’s also a completely separate dining room, ideal for long lunches or proper sit-down dinners. Altogether, the amount of living space is impressive without feeling excessive - it simply works.

The layout of the four bedrooms is equally thoughtful. Two sit on one side of the home, two on the other, creating natural separation. The main bedroom enjoys its own ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, along with stacker doors that open onto a private patio tucked among fruit trees and established planting. It’s sheltered, peaceful and feels like a small retreat of its own. The remaining three bedrooms all have double wardrobes and there’s excellent storage throughout with two hall cupboards.

Outside, the full section is beautifully maintained and fully fenced, with double gates allowing easy access for trailers or extra vehicles. The lawn is lush, the raised garden beds are productive, and the fruit trees are well established. It’s a garden that’s a pleasure to look at and a joy to spend time in - private, green and carefully tended over many years.

Fully double glazed, close to town and clearly loved, this is a home with warmth, balance and unique design – call Lorraine Barrett 027 2949226 to arrange a private viewing.
