DESCRIPTION Bankfoot is an outstanding modern detached home, beautifully presented and comprehensively modernised in recent years to a high standard. The result is a stylish and highly versatile property ideally suited to a wide range of buyers. The thoughtfully designed accommodation offers remarkable flexibility, making it equally suitable for a growing family or for purchasers seeking independent accommodation for a relative, guest suite or the opportunity to generate an income through an Airbnb, holiday let or assured tenancy.
The principal accommodation comprises three well-proportioned first-floor bedrooms served by a contemporary family bathroom. On the ground floor are two excellent reception rooms together with a superb, fitted kitchen incorporating a breakfast area, creating an ideal space for both everyday living and entertaining. Leading directly from the breakfast area is a self-contained single-storey wing offering tremendous potential. It currently provides two bedrooms, a luxurious bathroom and a well-appointed utility room. The utility has fitted units, with the plumbing and services already in place behind the cabinetry, allowing it to be converted into a fully functioning kitchen with minimal work. Once completed, the connecting door could simply be locked, enabling one of the bedrooms to become a comfortable sitting room and create an independent one bedroom annex.

Occupying a manageable corner plot, Bankfoot benefits from an attractive, low-maintenance garden and a secure gated courtyard providing generous off-road parking. The courtyard gives access to a substantial detached garage with an electrically operated remote-control door. A door from the breakfast area opens onto a delightful, landscaped rear garden, providing an attractive and private outdoor space in which to relax and entertain. Bankfoot is a fine modern detached home offered in good order.
