House For Sale £950,000
A rare opportunity to acquire a delightful four-bedroom detached family home, situated in one of the most desirable private roads in the village of Copthorne. Offering substantial scope for extension, with planning permissions already granted, the property sits on an enviable plot of approximately 0.25 acres (tbv) and benefits from ample off-road parking.
Upon entering the property, you are greeted by an outer hallway with storage cupboard housing meters and fuse board. The inner hallway is laid to parquet flooring and gives access to a downstairs cloakroom, with frosted window allowing in natural light, and a cupboard housing the central heating boiler. Double doors from the hallway lead to a light and spacious, dual aspect living room with a feature bay window and a gas fireplace, set in a natural brick surround. A door leads in turn to the conservatory, adapted for year-round use by way of a wall mounted electric heater and a tiled and insulated roof. The separate dining room also has a bay window to the front of the property, with the parquet flooring carrying through. There is space for an 8-seater table, ideal for family dining. The study enjoys a dual aspect, with windows to the front and side, and has a useful storage cupboard.
To the rear of the house, the kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with an attractive range of American oak wall and base units. A double bowl stainless steel sink/drainer is set into the work surface, there is an integrated double over, hob with extractor over, space and plumbing for a washing machine, dishwasher and tumble dryer, and space for a freestanding fridge/freezer. A table with bench, including thoughtfully designed built in storage, provides an ideal breakfast seating area. A door to the side of the kitchen leads to a utility/lobby area with further space for a freestanding fridge/freezer and additional built-in shelving.
Stairs from the inner hallway lead to the first floor landing, with window to rear and airing cupboard, housing the water tank. All first floor rooms have been fitted with fire doors. An enlarged access panel gives entry to the loft, with pull down ladder and light. This substantial space is currently divided into two large informal rooms, one used as a gym and the other for storage. There is planning permission in place to convert the loft into two formal bedrooms, one with en-suite. Further details available on request.
The principal bedroom is a generous dual aspect room, with windows to front and side. Approaching this room, there is a dressing area with fitted cupboards and window to side. The en-suite has been upgraded to comprise a double walk-in shower with rain effect showerhead, low level WC and wash hand basin with vanity storage. There is the added luxury of underfloor heating, heated mirror and additional floor level lighting. Bedroom two enjoys a dual aspect and the benefit of a built-in double cupboard. Bedroom three has built-in wardrobes and additional over bed storage, whilst bedroom four is a smaller double room. The family bathroom is fitted in a white suite comprising low level WC, wash hand basin with vanity storage, and p-shaped panel bath with rain effect shower. There is a heated towel rail and extractor fan, with natural light via a frosted window to the side. The floor and mirror are heated and lit, completing this recently upgraded modern bathroom.
Outside, the generous frontage provides driveway parking for several vehicles, leading to a double garage with electric roller door, power, light, and a ladder leading up to a useful floored storage area. There is scope to enlarge the frontage to incorporate areas of the side garden and create further off-road parking, if desired. Side access to both sides leads to the private south-facing rear garden, a delightful feature of this property. There is a barbeque area with pergola, and a patio area with ample space for table and chairs. The majority of the garden is laid to lawn with mature shrub and hedge borders. A generous side garden is also laid to lawn with timber shed, with the whole enclosed by oak panel fencing and a two metre high brick wall along the Southern boundary.
Further planning permission provides for extension to the property to either add a fifth bedroom or enlarge one of the existing rooms to incorporate and en suite and dressing area. Further details available on request.
It is worth noting that the windows contain acoustic glass and remain under guarantee. The property is fitted with an alarm system and external CCTV. An internal viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the improvements made to this delightful family home, and the significant potential for further enlargement.
