This detached home, which stands proudly in East Drive overlooking the park and tennis courts, has an amazing feel, incredible light, a huge garden, off street parking and a perfect example of a Queens Park home.

To the right the lounge, a tremendous large south facing bay, double aspect with 3 leaded light, double-glazed wooden sash windows overlooking the front garden, the tennis courts of Queens Park and on the left hand side, a glimpse of the sea. Being south facing the light comes in all day.
There is a gas fire, and with your carpet, makes this room nice and snug.
The next room we will enter into is the kitchen dining room.
The kitchen itself is set around a large island, home to the gas hob with a large and sufficient number of drawers and cupboards, set under a thick wooden work top. Against the wall behind the island is a double door large fridge, plumbing and space for a dishwasher and stainless-steel sink unit and drainer.
The dining area has a useful built-in pine dresser.
From the kitchen end you have 3 large south facing leaded light, wooden double-glazed windows, double aspect overlooking the garden and further bi-fold doors from the dining area to access the garden and really open-up that area.
As we move past the kitchen, there is a guest shower room with a walk-in shower cubicle, low level WC and a sink unit with storage below and heated towel rail. There is a double-glazed window overlooking the garden.
Opposite the shower room is the utility room, home to the boiler which is four years old, a butler sink, plumbing and space for a washing machine, on both sides of the room lots of workspace to sort out one's laundry and great storage.
Venturing further into the side of the house, a further WC and then into a genuine double garage with a sash window.
Now it is double in length as opposed width, so don't let the photographs put you off, currently used as a space to park one car and a workshop at the rear.
This is extra to the 3-4 genuine parking spaces at the front of the property.
There is a door from the garage into the garden, as well as access of course from the dining room.
The walled garden truly needs to be seen to be appreciated. It is 83 feet of beauty. The trees and shrub borders come from 40 years of love from the current owner. Set out so that each part can be fully appreciated at individual times of the day. The sound of the water feature trickling makes this garden an amazingly peaceful and serene space.

Door 1 will take us into the family bathroom.
