Summerhill is a spacious, detached family home in the heart of the highly sought-after village of Snitterfield. The property is of brick construction under a pitched tiled roof dating to 1962 and set in an elevated position. The property is accessed by a series of paved steps leading from the driveway, which provides access to the carport and private parking for multiple cars.
Beyond the front door lies a spacious entrance hall with parquet oak flooring and a large, eight-pane window, flooding the room with natural light. Summerhill is a classic example of 1960s architecture, as properties from this decade were designed with large windows to maximise the entry of natural light with large, leaded light windows throughout the property.
A wooden door to the right leads into a large living room, with a brick surround fireplace and wood burner, which flows into a fully glazed sunroom with enviable views of the beautiful, lawned garden. The entrance hall also provides access to a downstairs WC, a sizeable study with a brick surround fireplace and a large window with lovely, westerly views to the front lawn, and a 1960s-style kitchen. The kitchen has a tiled floor and offers built-in cupboards, space for a dishwasher and stunning views of the extensive rear garden. This flows into a dining room, currently fitted with an L-shaped island, and a glazed double door opens to a generous-sized utility room, with space for a washing machine and dryer, and provides access to the rear paved patio and garden beyond through an external stable door. The ground floor extends to a substantial lounge, which would lend itself well to a more formal dining room as it flows straight from the kitchen, with a feature window offering beautiful views of the front lawn.
Stairs in the entrance hall rise to a light and airy first-floor landing, with a large window overlooking the front lawn and village beyond, providing access to the loft, four double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The impressive principal bedroom features a beautiful dual aspect of the front and rear gardens. It is accessed via an en suite shower room, which offers modern sanitary fittings and a heated towel rail. The three further bedrooms are generous doubles and are served by the family bathroom, which includes a large bath with an overhead shower, a built-in vanity unit and two windows to the rear. Each bedroom offers a slightly different rear and front garden aspect through sizeable, leaded light windows.
The stable door from the utility leads to a large, stone-paved patio providing ample space for outdoor dining and entertaining. It is separated from the sloping lawn by a brick retaining wall. The generous garden is a particular feature of the property. It is principally lawned and beautifully maintained, with herbaceous and shrub beds and a circular pond with a water feature. The rear garden is fully enclosed and bordered by a hedge to the northerly and southerly boundary and post and rail fencing to the easterly boundary. The rear garden also comprises a wooden shed, perfect for storing garden machinery, a potting shed and a scattering of mature trees.
The lawn wraps around the southerly side of the property. It flows to the front, bordered by a fence to this boundary with a hedge to the remaining boundaries, providing effective screening from the surrounding village properties and creating a secluded, private feel to the garden.
