The extended living room is wonderfully spacious and has a warm, contemporary feel. The attractive flooring, neatly finished walls and modern wall panelling give the room a stylish appearance.

The modern open-plan kitchen consists of a kitchen unit and a separate bank of cabinets. The sleek white cabinet fronts, wood-effect framing and dark worktop create a contemporary look. The kitchen is equipped with a range of appliances, including a dishwasher, gas hob, extractor hood, combination microwave oven, fridge and freezer.

Whether you need bedrooms for the family, a home office or a guest room, there is plenty of flexibility to suit your needs.

The bathroom is well maintained and stylishly finished with dark grey and white tiles. It features a wall-hung toilet, a vanity unit with washbasin, a bathtub and a walk-in shower. Recessed spotlights complete the modern look. This well-appointed bathroom is the perfect place to start and end your day in comfort.

Garden: enjoy life by the water
Wow, what a wonderful garden! Renovated in 2021, it has a beautifully maintained appearance and a thoughtful layout. Wooden decking, patio tiles and palm trees create a relaxed, almost tropical atmosphere. There is plenty of room to lounge, enjoy meals outdoors or spend long summer evenings with family and friends.

There are also sheltered areas where you can sit and relax. The garden features two covered outdoor spaces: one with room for a comfortable lounge area and another where you can set up or enjoy an outdoor kitchen. This allows you to make the most of outdoor living at different times of the day.

But perhaps the best feature of all is the direct access to navigable waterways. The generous wooden deck incorporates a boathouse, allowing you to moor your boat under cover beneath the terrace. Simply step into your garden, hop aboard and head out onto the water for a relaxing trip. What could be better?

The garden also provides access to the spacious garage. As well as offering parking, it provides plenty of room for bicycles, gardening tools and other belongings.
