As you enter the property through the entrance vestibule you are greeted with a spacious hall, having stairs rising to an attractive galleried landing where beneath is an understairs cupboard and a door into the cloakroom complete with a WC and concealed cistern, vanity cupboard with inset wash basin and a tiled floor. Further doors lead off to the sitting room. This is a very light and spacious room with a double aspect. A feature marble fireplace sits centrally to the room with a gas coal effect fire and at the far end double sliding doors open onto a patio, double doors in turn open into the kitchen/dining room. This is very much the hub of the house. The vendors have opened up the space providing a very social space to eat and entertain whilst enjoying the view of the garden.
The kitchen is attractively appointed with a range of shaker style wall, drawer and base units fitted with quality work top surfaces and matching upstands, incorporating an integrated dishwasher, Rangemaster electric oven and gas hob with extractor hood, as well as space & plumbing for an American style fridge/freezer. A particular feature is the long central island that can seat six people comfortably, at one end having a built-in wine cooler. Two sets of french doors open onto a patio. The utility is adjacent to this and leads in turn into the shower room with WC. A further door opens to the gym which is at the rear of the garage. Sliding patio doors offer access and a lovely view of the garden.
It is worth mentioning that the converted garage, utility, and shower room could be adapted for independent living space for a relative, if required.
