Description - Approached via a country lane into the block paved drive leading to an attached garage the house sits well in its position amongst others of its type.
A welcoming entrance hallway via a covered entrance sets the tone to the house and its mid 30's layout which we are all comfortable with an d works so well. Under stairs storage cupboards offer storage before entering to the right into the large open plan reception spaces. Flexible in their uses, a bayed front room currently used as a dining space pours light into the rooms. A now blocked fireplace would have been an original feature and options to reopen are a possibility. Centrally is the sitting room with feature fireplace and alcoves to the side. both rooms have coving to keep in touch with the origins of this homes era. A large conservatory sits to the rear overlooking the garden and is a wonderful additional space to relax taking in the day. Doors lead out and open to a decking area for socialising.
The kitchen is accessed from the hallway and is of a galley style with plenty of storage and utilities set against both walls. Light from double aspect windows to the rear and side lights this space. A rear lobby with a door to the rear garden also offers access to the downstairs WC ideal for a family buyer and positioned well for those that love gardening.
Upstairs, a central landing gives access to all bedrooms and bathrooms. The largest bedroom looks out to the front with a duplicate bay window as below and a bank of wardrobes across one wall. The second bedroom is across the landing situated over the garage space and is accessed by passing a shower room that could easily be incorporated to become an ensuite facility to this room. A further double bedroom sits behind the principal one with views over the rear garden and built in storage space. The smallest bedroom sits centrally to the front and is almost square in its shape making an ideal study or single bedroom / nursery. Centrally to the rear is a bright bathroom with three piece modern white suite with mosaic detailed tiling. Properties to the side of this house of a similar build have taken the great opportunity to build into the roof space and 1930's houses are very much open to this kind of extension, subject to obtaining planning permission, but with the precedent set next door we would expect this to be allowed.
Externally to the rear is one of this family homes great assets. A raised deck area looks out over the garden that is set out in two sections. The immediate grassed area is on the plans and forms a lawn and mature borders. To the rear an additional piece of land is rented by the owners for a mere £50 per annum from the local council. As we understand it most of the properties in this area do the same and this offers a fantastic space for the kids to roam and play away from the fancy plants! To the front is a formal front garden with block paved drive leading to garage offering spaces for vehicles that could be extended to offer more.
