Property description

Situated in a peaceful cul de sac, this four bedroom detached property, benefitting from a double garage, is presented in excellent order throughout, with a recently fitted kitchen dining room enhancing well proportioned living space.

Owners’ Comments
We love this house because it is always full of light which flows from one room to the next. The rear garden is secluded and sunny and whilst the close is safe enough for our children to play, we are just a stone’s throw from St Boniface Park with its open space and woodland.
