House For Sale £595,000
A beautiful detached family home, with a deceptively large open plan living space, huge bifold doors and garden living.
Description
This attractive property is approached via a block paved driveway, giving ample parking for a number of vehicles. There is a curved, raised bed, with slate chippings and established foliage and planting. There are also two side gates giving access to the rear garden.
A part-glass and wooden entrance door is accessible via an open porch, which leads onto a welcoming hallway, with views straight through to the rear garden. A staircase rises to the first floor accommodation, with beautiful wooden panelling, wooden flooring, a radiator with a decorative cover and doors leading to the ground floor accommodation. There is also an under stairs storage cupboard housing the Worcester boiler, which is four years old.
To the right of the hallway, there is a sitting room, with parquet style flooring and a large double-glazed bay window overlooking the front of the property. This is a bright and generous room with high coved ceilings, a picture rail and a wonderful open fire, with complementary tiled inserts and a matt black mantle.
The main feature of this property is the fabulous open plan kitchen/dining/family room to the rear, which has been extended to provide the most beautiful space. The kitchen area is fitted with shaker style units incorporating a pull-out larder, a wine rack, two Bosch built-in ovens and an additional Bosch microwave, soft closed drawers and an island unit with a five-ring gas hob. There is an integrated dishwasher and washing machine and gorgeous quartz work surfaces incorporating a one and a half bowl sink unit with a hot boil mixer tap. There is also plenty of space for an American style fridge freezer and lovely wooden floors.
Beyond the kitchen, there is a dining area, which is incredibly generous and has the most wonderful bifold doors, which open up the entire wall of the house onto the back patio and rear garden. They really allow the garden to become an extension of the living space and make this a bright and welcoming room.
Through an enormous square archway and adjacent to the kitchen/diner, is a wonderful family sitting area, which is again, a very generous space with more bifold doors opening up the wall onto that fantastic patio. There is a skylight here to ensure that the entire area is bathed in natural light. This combined, open plan living space, really is spectacular.
