Moors Ley, Walkern, Stevenage, SG2

A beautifully presented and spacious family home, that has been extended and fully modernised throughout, situated in a quiet cul-de-sac location, in this sought-after village.

Overall Description

This tunnel-linked terrace house has been extended and completely modernised by its current owners to create a spacious, light and contemporary family home that is beautifully appointed throughout. No stone has been left in the improvements which include a brand new bathroom (2024), new double-glazed windows and doors (2019), new boiler, all new flooring downstairs with under-floor heating in three zones, new carpets upstairs, fully landscaped back garden with garden studio/annexe, new driveway and new electrics with chrome points with USB ports. However the biggest transformation is with the addition of a large rear extension to create a superb open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with French doors out into the garden, undoubtedly now the heart of this magnificent home. Upstairs there are three bedrooms, two good-sized doubles, as well as that brand new bathroom. Downstairs there is the entrance hallway with fitted under-stairs utility cupboard, cloakroom, sitting room with open-fireplace and then the open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with feature flame-effect electric fireplace and French doors to the low-maintenance garden. There is ample parking on the brick-paved driveway and a gate leads to a tunnel giving access to the back garden which contains the fully insulated and double-glazed garden studio/annexe, perfect for use as a spill-over bedroom or perhaps a home office.. If you are looking for a large and very modern family home in an excellent village location then viewing is highly recommended. We have an Open House from 11.30am to 12.30am on Saturday 5th October, so please call to book a time slot.
