<p>With a gorgeously spacious open plan kitchen/diner boasting a huge kitchen island, a snug and bi-fold doors opening onto the garden, this pad is perfect for family life, not to mention entertaining. Summer BBQ on the terrace or Christmas with the extended family? No problem. The finish is high end, with fitted units, quartz worktops and AEG appliances and we are loving the stylish, engineered wood, herringbone floors. There&#8217;s an adjacent utility room too, so noisy laundry machines are nicely out of the way.</p>

<p>Put your feet up in the large, square living room, which is perfectly proportioned for getting social or just hanging out in front of the telly. Then head upstairs, where you&#8217;ll find four bedrooms and three bathrooms, one ensuite, one jack and jill style and one large family bathroom. I&#8217;ve already bagsied the master suite, which has it&#8217;s own walk-in wardrobe, so plenty of room for all those stilettos. </p>
