House For Sale £675,000
A particularly attractive and individual detached house located on the exclusive and highly sought after London Road, situated in Stoneygate's conservation area. Introducing "The Grey", a substantial and distinctive four bedroom detached house which provides over 2,200 sq ft of accommodation and is presented to an incredibly high standard.
An appealing Arts and Crafts 1920's original bullseye oak front door opens up to a deceptively spacious entrance hall with newly replaced double glazed leaded windows to front and side elevations, original and beautifully restored oak flooring alongside London mosaic feature tiles. The first reception room sets the tone for the whole property with a perfect blend of modern living and character with a stunning ceiling rose, original oak flooring and picture rails. This is combined with a stylish log-burner fireplace in the centre of the room alongside a recent addition of bespoke and individually made shutter-blinds adding a degree of privacy to the space with newly replaced double-glazed windows. Leading on from the first reception room is a well-appointed three-piece shower-room, access to the living room and open plan kitchen/dining room. The living room includes a beautifully appointed gas feature-fireplace and sliding UPVC double glazed doors presenting both access to, and direct views onto, an extensive south-facing rear garden. The open plan kitchen/dining area is bright, airy and incredibly well presented. Boasting a newly fitted and stylish kitchen with both spotlights and pendant ceiling lighting towards the dining area, five-ring gas hob with concealed extractor fan, integrated dish-washer and ample preparation area and storage. Furthermore, the kitchen presents direct views onto the rear garden through two large UPVC double-glazed windows allowing an enormous amount of natural light to fill the room. To the rear of the property is a recently renovated and re-plastered utility room which includes a five-year-old Worcester boiler, washing machine/dryer alongside access to both the lean-to and rear garden.
The restored and varnished pine staircase provides access to an impressive landing with a newly replaced double glazed leaded window to the side aspect, picture rails and a beautiful coved ceiling with light point. The landing area offers excellent potential to provide staircase access to the loft area to provide further accommodation if required (subject to the necessary consent). On the first floor are four generous, good sized bedrooms and a stylish and well-appointed four-piece family bathroom. The bedrooms are presented in excellent decorative order with the master bedroom benefitting from a feature fire-place and direct views to the frontage. The bathroom has been tastefully designed with modern feature tiling, stylish roll-top bath, separate shower cubicle, wash hand basin and low flush w/c.
The property sits on a superb mature plot with an attractive leafy aspect and frontage with in-and-out driveway. To the rear of the property is an extensive, private and well established south-facing rear garden which has an array of mature trees, plants and flowerbeds. The property offers excellent potential to extend both to the rear or conversion of the garage or loft space, substantially increasing the property's accommodation (subject to necessary consent). The property also benefits from a newly refurbished in and out driveway to accommodate several cars.
