Seller Insight The vendors bought the property from the developer five and a half years ago, having been attracted by its excellent location, its modern design and the opportunity to put their own stamp on a blank canvas. One of their first improvements was to install Solar PV and an air source heat pump system, which has made a significant difference to the property s energy efficiency and running costs; the under floor heating on the ground and first floors offers all-year-round comfort, while each room is individually temperature-controlled for additional economy. Further enhancements include the installation of a Sonos multimedia system to the downstairs rooms and the rear patio, a stylish new oak and glass staircase and drive.
