Nouveau Milton

The property opens into a welcoming reception hall, with stairs rising to the first floor and access to the principal ground-floor rooms.
To the front is a separate dining room, a bright and well-proportioned space with ample room for a large dining table and additional furniture. Its position away from the main family areas makes it particularly well suited to more formal dining and entertaining.
The living room is a generous reception space positioned at the heart of the house, providing plenty of room for substantial seating and creating a comfortable main lounge for everyday family life. The living room also benefits from a woodburner.
The kitchen/family room is one of the standout features of the property and forms a superb social hub. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of contemporary wall and base units, complemented by generous work surfaces and plenty of practical storage. There is excellent preparation space together with room for a full range of appliances, while the proportions of the room allow for a substantial dining or informal seating area alongside. The overall arrangement works especially well for family life, with the kitchen remaining connected to the main living spaces rather than feeling separate from them.
Beyond the kitchen is a dedicated study, providing a useful home-working space, which in turn leads through to an additional family room. This makes an excellent secondary reception room and could equally be used as a playroom, snug, hobby room or occasional guest space.
A ground-floor cloakroom completes the accommodation on this level.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom is a generous double which benefits from its own en suite shower room and enjoys access to a balcony. The en suite is finished with a modern suite including a glazed shower enclosure, wash basin and WC, with contemporary tiling and fittings giving the room a clean, well-maintained appearance.
Bedroom two is another comfortable double while bedrooms three and four provide further well-proportioned accommodation suitable for children, guests or home working.
The main family bathroom is also smartly presented and fitted with a full modern suite. A panelled bath is complemented by a wash basin and WC, with tiled surrounds and contemporary fittings creating a fresh and practical finish. Together with the principal en suite, the arrangement gives the first floor excellent bathroom provision for a family home.
The property is set within established gardens, with the rear offering a private, attractive setting which isn’t overlooked and with plenty of space for outdoor seating, dining and entertaining. To the front, a broad driveway provides ample off-road parking for several vehicles and leads to a detached double garage. The detached double garage is well constructed with double-skinned walls and benefits from both power and lighting, offering generous storage space alongside secure off-road parking. The combination of mature gardens, generous parking and substantial garaging is a particularly valuable feature of the home.
