The property boasts stunning views across the garden towards the estuary and rolling countryside, set on a generous corner plot that offers ample outdoor space.

The spacious lounge/dining room features a large front window and a gas fire, leading into a substantial conservatory that maximises the panoramic views. The kitchen is equipped with wall and base units, an electric oven and hob, and a cupboard housing the Worcester boiler, which connects to a utility room offering additional storage and access to the outside. The main bedroom enjoys garden views and includes a dressing area with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. A second generous double bedroom also benefits from the outlook, while a smaller single room completes the accommodation. A separate bathroom is fitted with a shower, WC, and wash hand basin. The wraparound garden is an attractive feature, providing a sense of space not often found in similar properties. Given its size and configuration, there may be potential for extension or reconfiguration, subject to planning permissions. Additionally, the property includes a garage and shared parking within the development. With its generous proportions and exceptional views, this home offers a unique opportunity to modernise and create something special in a sought-after location.
