The Property
Stepping Stones, 4 St James Close was constructed in the 1970’s and offers spacious five bedroom accommodation configured over two floors. It has been well maintained, updated and redeveloped over the years and sits on a good sized plot with private and established wrap-around gardens. The Boathouse has been designed and used as a successful holiday let offering an additional income stream but also offers scope of further ancillary accommodation depending on individual requirements.
Partially glazed front door opens into the spacious reception hallway and offers access to the principal accommodation, central staircase to the upper floor, downstairs cloakroom and storage cupboards. The sitting room is a room of good size and offers a dual aspect overlooking the front and side gardens and access through sliding doors to the decked terrace. A vaulted ceiling adds further to the feeling of light and space and a feature gas wood burning style stove adds a welcoming focal point to the room.
The stunning open plan kitchen, dining and family room offers a dual aspect flooding the room with natural light. The kitchen offers a fine selection of bespoke units designed and fitted by German designer Schuller with a sleek finish and complementary work surfaces. Integral appliances include an electric double oven, dishwasher and fridge freezer whilst a ceramic hob with extractor over is located in the central island. The dining area sits centrally to the room and offers ample room for a good size table and chairs and a multi-fuel stove, whilst the relaxing family area sits to the front elevation. Sliding doors are at the rear of the room and lead to the raised decked sun terrace which is perfectly placed for al-fresco entertaining and enjoying views of the garden and the river. Off the kitchen is a useful utility room offering further storage and laundry solutions with access to the garage and rear lobby with a door to the garden.
From the reception hallway the staircase rises to the upper floor and the main bedroom. Offering a triple aspect, the room is light and bright and of generous proportions with built in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room. A separate staircase leads down to the rear lobby with onward access to the rear garden. Depending on individual requirements and with the necessary planning consents this could be redeveloped to offer an independent living opportunity. The guest bedroom is located to the front elevation and benefits from fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room whilst the three other bedrooms are served by the family bathroom comprising bath, walk-in shower, wash hand basin, heated towel rail and WC; the pressurised hot water system is also housed in the bathroom. To the rear of the property is a study/nursery.
The Boathouse, constructed in 2018 is a detached, timber clad property which has been used as a successful holiday let. It benefits from an open plan sitting room, dining room and Schuller kitchen with all areas clearly defined and a triple aspect. A wood burning stove sits to the corner and offers a cosy feel and there are sliding doors to the decked sun terrace and private garden. Contemporary floorcoverings, fixtures and fittings, soft colour palettes and decor are evident throughout the property which is perfectly suited for modern day requirements. Two bedrooms are offered; one with an en-suite shower room and the other is served by the adjacent shower room. Private parking is available and an additional car port style area is available as storage with a games area, however could easily lend itself to a host of other uses.
