Two homes on one property offer so many options, from multi-generational living, generating rental income, or having the perfect self-catering guest accommodation. This scintillating home is so cleverly designed with a house and a cottage, separated by three garages, with each having it’s own entrance and garden. Includes is the option of a shared Jetty set off the pretty communal garden at the end of the cul de sac, just metres away.

Space has been maximized allowing the main home to have a fabulous courtyard garden designed for entertaining, while enjoying an indigenous front garden facing the canal where a shared jetty can be installed if so required. Separating the two homes are a double and single garage, with the double interleading to the main house. The cottage is situated on the far side of the garaging, with own private garden.

The modern sleek kitchen is off the dining area, with gas hob and electric eye level oven, loads of countertop and userfriendly drawers and cupboards, through to scullery and laundry, to the interleading double garage.

3^rd bedroom or study with own en suite bathroom is off this side of the home.
