House For Sale £2,400,000
Five bedroom family house in a sought after location with swimming pool.
Description
Occupying a generous plot this well presented house, dating back to the early 1930s, has been enhanced and extended by the current owners creating an ideal home for growing families. The property is thoughtfully designed to take advantage of the beautiful landscaped garden to the rear.
A welcoming reception hall, with a cloakroom, storage and stairs to the first floor, leads to the mostly open plan ground floor accommodation. The house flows well, with an elegant formal sitting room of excellent proportions, with a decorative fireplace as a focal point. This room opens into the impressive dining room with under floor heating and the attractive gardens as a lovely backdrop. Ceiling lanterns flood the space with natural light and bi-fold doors open on to the terrace. In one corner is a cosy seating area and a feature decorative fireplace. A family room nestles in the far corner, also with under floor heating and a contemporary inset fireplace. The kitchen/breakfast room is wonderfully appointed with an array of units and storage, complemented by granite worktops. A large central island provides further storage and incorporates a breakfast bar for relaxed seating. There is space for a dual cooker/oven with an extractor hood over, space for a dishwasher and space for an American style fridge freezer. A useful boot room is tucked just off the kitchen, leading to the utility room and also through to a quietly situated study at the front of the house, featuring a wall mounted fireplace with fitted cabinetry either side.
The principal bedroom on the first floor is well appointed with a fully fitted dressing room leading into an en suite with under floor heating and a Villeroy and Boch suite comprising a bath and walk-in shower. There is a guest bedroom with an en suite bathroom, and three further bedrooms, two of which share an en suite shower room while the remaining bedroom is served by a family bathroom.

The property enjoys a generous frontage with an area of lawn and a gravelled carriage driveway with ample room for parking. The rear garden is a delight, beautifully landscaped with a large area of lawn interspersed with a variety of trees. A terrace, perfect for outside dining, adjoins the house to the rear with a canopy providing a shady refuge. To the rear of the garden, a wonderful swimming pool area gives a further space for relaxing and dining with a paved terrace area together with a pool/summer house. The garden is well enclosed and screened with fencing and mature hedge borders giving a good deal of privacy.
