The accommodation has been beautifully updated throughout by the current vendors to create a tasteful woodland home. The property offers practical modern features including an electric car charging point and integrated kitchen appliances. The ground floor comprises a kitchen/breakfast room with Shaker-style units, a sitting room with central wood burner and adjoining sunroom with pleasant views over the garden, an auxiliary dining room, two bedrooms, and the family bathroom with separate bath and shower facilities. Upstairs there are the two remaining bedrooms, each with built-in storage options, a shower room, and a large landing which can be used as a home office/study if required. Externally, the plot is vast and verdant. The property is introduced by an extended driveway with adjoining lawn surrounded by mature bushes and trees. The private driveway has space for multiple vehicles, provides primary access to the property, and is set before a detached double garage. Doors from the entrance hall and the sunroom open to an enclosed garden which is mostly laid-to-lawn and bordered by a wealth of greenery and flora. A raised perimeter offers lovely views across the plot and lends the property its name - Greencliff. Fronting the garden is a patio which is ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining. Residents of Rivermead will benefit from the property's excellent rural position with countryside walks on its doorstep.
