Description

A traditional detached family home constructed circa 1934 and from brick elevations under a pitched and tiled roof. Craygail House has been in the same family ownership for nearly 60 years, includes enhancements and has been lovingly maintained with particular attention given to the fabric and gardens which in their entirety extend to approximately 1.26 acres. The property benefits from excellent solar gain with an East/West orientation for the sizeable gardens to the front and rear. The accommodation caters well for families both young and old, there is scope for an annexe should one wish to house a dependant.

Approached via a vestibule and the welcoming reception hall, there are principal rooms lying directly off. The drawing room spans the front elevation with dual aspect windows and doors opening onto the front terrace and garden. The dining room is also dual aspect with further doors and sits adjacent to the large kitchen/breakfast room which incorporates the utility. Within, there are a range of wall and base units with some integrated appliances. Beyond is a rear lobby, cloakroom and the boiler room. There are two further reception rooms; a sitting room and music room which overlook the side and rear elevations and there is also a door which provides independence to the games room should one wish to create an annexe. A further cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

The first floor features five bedrooms, the principal bedroom has the benefit of built in wardrobes, a dressing table and its own dedicated en suite bathroom. The remaining bedrooms are well served by the family bathroom which has a jack and jill door to one of the bedrooms and there is a more contemporary shower room and separate WC in addition.

The games room is effectively a first floor wing and incorporates a full sized snooker table, there is a bar area and beyond the home office with independent access to all from the ground floor. This combined could be converted into an annexe for a dependent should one wish. In its current guise, it provides a relaxing and good home working space with double doors onto a terrace which surveys the rear garden.

Craygail House is approached via a winding and gated carriage drive culminating in plenty of parking and a detached double garage. There are stores adjacent for garden implements.
The gardens have been imaginatively landscaped with large lawned areas. Indeed the rear garden was formerly a grass tennis court with a Yew hedge and Topiaries surrounding and an ornamental garden lies adjacent.

The front garden is of equal scale and includes a terrace and pergolas. The shaped lawn has established walkways, rockeries and a mature planting programme creates privacy from the road itself.
