This extremely well-presented home enjoys a rare combination of privacy, quality and generous proportions throughout.

Approached from the cul-de-sac via a gated entrance, the property benefits from a private tarmacadam driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles, leading to the garage and a convenient turning area. The front entrance is sheltered by a recessed porch, opening into a welcoming and spacious reception hallway, complemented by a contemporary cloakroom with WC and wash hand basin. The principal reception room is both elegant and inviting, featuring a wood-burning stove and sliding doors that open into a delightful conservatory. This light-filled space enjoys attractive views across the gardens and provides direct access via double doors to the expansive rear grounds. Also accessed from the hallway is the kitchen/breakfast room, very much the heart of the home, offering generous space for cooking, preparation and informal dining. The kitchen is enhanced by a bespoke fitted drinks cabinet and breakfast bar, while a modernised utility room provides further practicality, housing the recently upgraded central heating boiler and offering external access to the rear garden.

The accommodation is completed by three well-proportioned double bedrooms, one benefitting from fitted wardrobe space, together with a stylish and modern family shower room, all accessed conveniently from the main hallway.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The driveway leads to a large double garage with up-and-over door to the front and a pedestrian door to the rear, providing access to a useful garden store with adjoining workshop or home office space, and onward access to the garden. The front gardens are attractively laid mainly to lawn, framed by mature hedging that enhances privacy. The rear gardens are particularly generous and beautifully landscaped, featuring a paved terrace that wraps around the property, a raised patio area ideal for outdoor entertaining, a tranquil pond, and an array of mature trees set within extensive lawned grounds. A paved pathway leads to a garden shed located at the far end of the garden.

The property enjoys exceptional, far-reaching views across the rolling Mid-Wales countryside, further enhancing its appeal. Internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the setting, presentation and lifestyle on offer.
