DESCRIPTION
6 Rutherfurd Close is a delightful one and a half storey home with an additional basement. Three generous reception rooms and four bedrooms are spread over the ground and first floors with a stunning living room upstairs having a Dowling Stove and patio doors leading to a balcony. Downstairs the sitting room has patio doors leading to a terrace beneath the balcony. A double-doored dining room sits next to the well-appointed kitchen. The dining room could also make a good sized study/office for home working. The master bedroom with en suite shower room and the second bedroom are on the ground floor, with two further bedrooms and bathroom with striking double bath on the first floor*.
*NB. The bathroom is in need of upgrading and the shower is not draining.
The basement is accessed internally via stairs leading down from the hallway. 6 separate spaces are found here with one plumbed as a laundry room, one used as a workshop and one with gym matting. The possibilities are endless with this basement and it provides a huge amount of storage, allowing the house itself to be uncluttered. There is access to the garage via a second set of stairs leading up from a lockable door. It is rare to find such an impressive basement in a house of this era, so this is a chance for a buyer to obtain a house with real ‘hidden depths’.
ACCOMMODATION
Basement: Hallway. 6 defined spaces. Access to both the ground floor and the garage.
First Floor: Entrance vestibule. Hallway. Kitchen. Dining Room. Sitting Room. Master Bedroom with En Suite Shower Room. Cloakroom WC. Bedroom 2.

GARDEN
The garden surrounds the house and is to grass with mature trees to the front, with the tarmac parking area in front of the garage. Paths lead around the house. To the rear is a paved terraced with herbaceous border behind. To one side is a raised terrace which contains the swimming pool. The swimming pool requires a complete overhaul to become useable again. Timber steps lead up to the first floor balcony. Behind the pool area the garden rises steeply to a banked area currently home to timber sheds, with a further triangular area behind, which has potential for the creation of borders.

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on March 29, 2023
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on March 29, 2023
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on December 3, 2014 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
