House For Sale £1,100,000
Originally constructed as two semi-detached properties in the 1920s, this substantial family home has been skilfully converted and then extended, and a large detached annexe has also been added. The result is one of the largest private residences in Downley, with an approximate gross external area of 3,600 Sq.Ft. It offers a total of 6 double bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, on a level 1/4 acre plot with a carriage driveway, additional parking, integral garage and a highly desirable southwest facing garden.
At the front of the house a large driveway provides parking for as many as 6 or 7 cars and has two access points onto Plomer Green Lane. A large integral garage with an electric roller door is to the left of the house whilst a wide space to the right provides some additional parking as well as excellent access to the annexe and back garden. There are attractive flower beds and some mature trees and shrubs providing a pleasant and private outlook.
Stepping inside from beneath the storm porch you find yourself in a very large entrance hall with the staircase to the first floor on your left. This centrally placed room gives access to the lounge, the dining room and office, as well as a walk in cupboard large enough for all your coats and footwear, a spacious downstairs cloakroom, an understairs cupboard and the extensive store room that runs front to back alongside the large garage. The dining room is open to the kitchen; a large double aspect room with lots of natural light and worktops and fitted units to three walls. Beside the kitchen and dining room is the generous utility room, with further worktop, sink and cupboard space as well as access to the back garden. A large office with built in cabinetry connects the dining room to the entrance hall, and also has double doors opening into a wonderful sitting room at the rear of the house. With glazing to the south and west, and a large skylight above, this room is naturally light and bright and has French doors opening to the large patio.
Upstairs there are 5 large double bedrooms, 2 with rear aspects and 3 overlooking to front driveway. Bedroom 1 has space for a wide dressing table and full width built in wardrobes and shares a spacious Jack & Jill ensuite with bedroom 2, whilst at the other end of the house is a large family bathroom with separate shower enclosure and bath. Next door to this is a most unusual and extremely useful walk in linen cupboard. For those looking for even more bedrooms, bedroom 5 could easily be converted into two singles, and the enormous loft space is readily accessible.
To the rear of the property is a detached annexe that measures 450 square feet, considerably larger than your average one bedroom flat. Recently converted to a high standard, there is an entrance hall, a spacious double bedroom with built in wardrobe, a fully tiled shower room and a double aspect living room with space for a kitchen area, dining table and sofa. There are recessed LED downlights, underfloor heating throughout, loft insulation and high quality double glazing.
The extensive back garden is a real credit to the current owner. A large patio area wraps around the back of the house with some raised flower beds and an attractive water feature bordering the 90' long, level lawn. A substantial garden shed and a well maintained greenhouse sit off to one side whilst at the far end of the garden are two large raised vegetable beds.
Last year a 7kWh / 20 panel Solar pv array was installed along with 2 batteries to maximise the reduction to the electricity bills. This significant enhancement to the energy efficiency of the property is not reflected in the current EPC.
