2 bedroom house for sale

Overview

Owner's commentsWe bought this house from new in 2019 as young first time buyers and have adored living here since. It was a perfect starter home for us in a great location, close to local shops and lovely walks right on our doorstep. We love the modern open plan layout which is great for socialising with our friends and family. The south facing garden means it's a real sun trap from morning till night which we have enjoyed spending a lot of time in. We welcomed our first baby in this house and it has been a perfect space to raise him. It will always hold a special place in our hearts and we hope that it can give someone else wonderful memories like it has us.AccommodationStepping in from the front door, you will have an entrance hall with cupboard for storage on the right and a handy downstairs cloakroom to the left.
