22 highfields has recently undergone a full programme of restoration and improvements which includes a double height side extension and single storey rear extension to create a truly delightful open-plan kitchen/dining/family room. The property is entered via the original part-glazed double doors into the entrance hallway with stairs rising to the first floor and doors giving access to all principal ground floor rooms. The sitting room has a beautiful bay window to front aspect, feature fireplace, picture rail and wooden flooring. The impresive 35ft wide open-plan kitchen/dining/family room stretches across the back of the property with Duration aluminium bi-folding doors that split into two and open out onto the rear terrace. The kitchen area is fitted to a high standard with solid wood base and eye units, plus island all with a quartz work surface over, butler sink, space for a Range style cooker, built-in dishwasher and fridge/freezer. Adjacent to the kitchen area is the utility room which also has built-in base level units, space for washing machine and tumble-dryer plus the recently installed Worchester boiler. A further door gives access to the ground floor cloakroom. The dining/family area has wooden flooring throughout which is reclaimed wood dating back to approximately 1936, a log burner, built-in cabinet and shelving along with picture rail and skylights. The study forms part of the new side extension with a bay window drawing in natural light, wooden flooring and picture rail. Upstairs the landing gives access to 4 lovely bedrooms and the family bathroom. The master bedroom is a fantastically proportioned double room with bay window to front, wooden flooring, picture rail and its own en suite shower room finished to a very high standard with classic 1930’s chrome controls for the walk-in shower. There is also a wash basin, WC and small bay window to the front. Bedroom 2 is located at the rear of the house and is also a good sized double with wooden flooring, new Duration aluminium windows and picture rail. Bedrooms 3 and 4 form part of the first floor side extension and are both good sized double rooms, perfect for children. The luxuriously appointed family bathroom has a stand-alone pebble bath, walk-in shower with dual working options, wash basin, WC and tiled flooring.

Outside, to the front of the property there is parking for 3 cars on the brick paved and shingle driveway, with fencing and shrubs to the front providing a degree of privacy. The property benefits from a private east facing rear garden measuring approx. 60ft x 40ft that is mainly laid to lawn with a patio area close to the property making it perfect for entertaining and alfresco dining. The garden is bordered by flowerbeds of mature shrubs along with two apple trees and a Victoria plum tree.
