House For Sale £900,000
Nova, 9 Stoneleigh Close, is a detached family home originally designed and built in 1960 for England and British Lions rugby legend Ivor Preece, which, has been sympathetically developed and refurbished over the years by the current owners.
The property has been redesigned into a five-bedroomed one with flexible, split-level accommodation that suits modern living. Entry is through a green oak porch, with a front door into the hallway. Two bedrooms are located off the hallway, although one can been used as a playroom and separate study, plus a family bathroom.
The split-level lounge is particularly special, with a balustrade balcony and cascading wide steps leading down to the lower level. It provides a generous reception room ideal for family living, with engineered oak flooring, French doors opening to the garden and a multi-fuel log burner. A further reception room is off the lounge with a roof lantern and garden views.
The open plan kitchen/dining room has tiled flooring, oak-fronted cupboards hand painted in Farrow & Ball, and integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, double oven and a fridge/freezer. The rear of the garage is accessed from the kitchen, and a couple of steps lead from the kitchen back to the entrance hallway.
Located off the mezzanine balcony in the sitting room is a good-sized double bedroom with a front aspect and ensuite shower room. Upstairs are two large double bedrooms with newly fitted cupboards and en suite shower rooms. The principal bedroom has a dual aspect and a Juliet balcony.
Outside, the rear southeast-facing garden is exceptionally private, with stunning seasonal views over open countryside. The garden is mainly laid to lawn with colourful planted flower and shrub borders. A large brick paved terrace stretches the entire width of the property, with a handy garden tap and useful external power socket. There is gated access around one side of
the property, and to the other side of the front driveway is the log store, with light and power.
The single integral garage has a Novoferm “Georgian” up and over manually operated door, power, lighting and plumbing for a washing machine. Also housed in the rear of the garage is a Worcester Bosch central heating boiler, together with a multi-camera CCTV controller and the property security alarm device.
The front garden has private tree screening to the edge of the footpath, and on one side, there are various plants and plentiful lavender shrubs. The property boasts an in and out “carriage” driveway with ample parking.
