About this property

An impressive five-bedroom detached family home of circa 2,300 sq ft, occupying a particularly attractive position within this highly regarded Bewley Homes development, overlooking a lovely green to the front and benefiting from a substantial garage with a dedicated home gym.

12 Thyme Close is a beautifully proportioned modern family home, combining the convenience and efficiency of a newer property with the space and character more commonly associated with a traditional village house. The setting is one of the property's real strengths. Positioned overlooking an attractive green area to the front, the house enjoys a pleasant open outlook which creates a greater sense of space and separation from neighbouring properties. The garage sits to the left-hand side when approaching the house, providing a particularly balanced and attractive frontage.
