The Headline Details
Completed in 2001, this detached property is an excellent example of a modern, spacious family home. Approached via a private drive, the house sits comfortably in its generous plot and has spacious and versatile accommodation, as well as a double garage and south facing garden. The house is presented in extremely good order and is decorated in neutral tones.
Downstairs
The accommodation starts with a very welcoming and generous entrance hall, providing access to the ground floor rooms and stairs to the first floor. To the left is the large eat-in kitchen, with a useful utility room adjacent, fitted with cupboards and access to the rear garden. The layout of the kitchen is extremely family friendly, with ample room for casual dining and the good range of painted wooden wall and base units, topped with granite worksurfaces, are in excellent order. The free-standing range cooker is to be included in the sale, and the central island is fitted with an oak worktop, providing an attractive contrast.
Downstairs Continued
The formal reception room has French doors leading to the garden as well as windows to the side and front, ensuring this room is flooded with light, and a woodburning stove situated in an attractive brick surround, creates a real focal point. There is a further reception room to the rear, which the current owners use as a dining room, and the adjacent study also has an attractive aspect to the rear garden. A cloakroom and coats cupboard completes the downstairs accommodation.
Upstairs
Upstairs, there are 5 bedrooms, full of character thanks to the interesting roof lines, and the master has its own dedicated ensuite shower room. There is a large family bathroom, with separate bath and shower cubicle, and access to the loft is from the landing.
Outside
The house has a lovely initial aspect, packed with character from the clever design, and with plentiful parking on the driveway, which also leads to the large double garage, with accommodation (which includes a bathroom) on the upper level. The strong outside space continues into the rear garden, which is lovely and sunny thanks to its south facing aspect, and with real thought and care has been given to create different “rooms” and the pergola, ensuring that sun or shade can be found throughout the day, and with plentiful planting creating real interest.
Location
