Practical elements include a dedicated study and a separate utility room with direct access to the garage. Upstairs, the master bedroom benefits from a private en-suite bathroom, while a ‘Jack and Jill’ en-suite serves bedrooms two and three, leaving a family bathroom for the remaining two bedrooms. All properties at Prince's Park come with a 10-year new build warranty. While Charles Church operates as the premium brand of its parent company and often advertises a 5-star HBF rating, prospective buyers are advised to conduct due diligence, as with any major purchase, and to confirm specific build specifications and customer service records for this local site.
