Introduction 
Enjoying views over the top green this property perfectly demonstrates Herbert Collins' original concept of a garden suburb with ornamental flowering cherry trees found throughout the estate that boasts two further greens whilst two grass tennis courts are available for the use of local residents.
The accommodation comprises a reception hall with a cloakroom, two comfortable reception rooms, a modern kitchen, three bedrooms and a bathroom. A number of nearby properties have converted the sizeable loft space to provide an additional bedroom and (subject to the necessary consents) there maybe similar scope here. A rare feature is the fully enclosed carport that measures 27'11" x 8'9" and benefits from its own up and over door on the front aspect. Connecting the single garage and the main house it forms a sizable contiguous and secure covered space. The rear garden measures 68' x 32' and has a Westerly aspect to the top left hand corner.

The spacious dining room has the advantage of a bay window enjoying views to the green and the open grate benefits from a working chimney. A double glazed sliding patio door and side panel lead from the lounge to the rear garden. Potential purchasers could combine this room with the adjacent kitchen to create an enviably proportioned open plan space that is a popular modern day lifestyle.
