Description

A charming and spacious, detached family home with large garden and ample parking in a prime location. In 2009 the house was beautifully extended on the ground floor and extensively modernised by the current owners including re wiring, re plumbing with a new boiler, new kitchen and bathrooms, new driveway and new windows throughout.

The block paved front drive with electrics accommodates parking for circa six cars with a semicircular, in-out driveway. The front door leads into a spacious, Travertine Limestone flagstone hall with ample space for coats and boots. To the rights is a large, farmhouse kitchen with the same charming Limestone flooring, spot lighting, solid worktops, breakfast bar and ample timber wall and base units for storage. There is an Aga with two hot plates and two ovens as well as a further double oven with four ring induction hob, microwave, dishwasher and space for a large fridge freezer. Adjacent is a separate utility housing the white goods, with access to the garden and a study beyond. The kitchen flows naturally into a beautiful dining room extension with engineered oak flooring, electric curtains, delightful views over the garden and ample light due to two large Velux windows and its south facing orientation. At the near end is a bar area, ideal for entertaining. At the far end, the room opens into a characterful sitting room with exposed beams, a red brick fireplace with log burner and oak mantle and French doors onto the garden. A step leads up to a second reception area with Limestone flooring, providing a separate music, cinema or hobby space. Back off the hall is an additional family room or fifth bedroom as well as a modern shower room. The arrangement would work well for multigenerational living.

Upstairs, three carpeted double bedrooms are arranged off the first floor landing. Bedroom one is of a good size with a stylish, interior finish, a dressing room and contemporary en suite bathroom (refurbished 2023) with a large bathtub and separate, walk-in rain shower. Bedrooms two and three are also tastefully finished with a contemporary wallpaper and serviced by a family bathroom with bath and shower over. On the second floor is a spacious, loft room with large Velux window allowing for ample light. There is also access to a substantial loft space providing excellent storage.

Externally, a sizeable timber decked terrace is ideal for al fresco dining, and a Lay-Z-Spa modern hot tub with awning provides a lovely spot for sundowners. The garden is south facing with a level lawn and high hedging providing a private and secure border. At the far end is a well maintained garden shed and raised beds as well as a concrete based garage with electric roller shutter providing excellent storage or off street parking.
