A detached contemporary family house with a beautifully presented 4 double-bedroom interior, detached garage, enclosed sun-trap rear garden and an exceptional position combining town and country on the very rural outskirts of Louth. The house faces open fields with landscaped ponds (swales) in the foreground. Superbly designed rooms in subtle neutral colour schemes and featuring an open plan fitted dining-kitchen and dining/sitting room with French doors onto the sunny rear patio, and a master bedroom suite with modern built-in dressing area and ensuite shower room. 

Directions Travel through the centre of Louth along Mercer Row and Eastgate to the second mini roundabout by Morrisons store and at this roundabout take the first exit along Ramsgate. Follow the road to the next mini roundabout and take the second exit along Ramsgate Road and then turn second left into Victoria Road.

Follow the road carrying straight on at the crossroads along Brackenborough Road and then take the second right turn into Fulmar Drive. Follow the road for some distance until it becomes Guillemot Drive and then take the first left turn along Albatross Way. Continue almost to the end of the road until Falcon Avenue is found on the right.

At the end of Falcon Avenue, on the right side a private shared driveway gives access to four houses which enjoy an enviable position facing open farmland. Number 10 is the second of these properties, and the driveway to the garage is immediately after the house.  

The Property Completed in 2019 and with the balance of a 10-year NHBC Guarantee, this well-designed, detached family house has brick-faced, insulated principal walls under a pitched concrete-tiled roof with photo-voltaic solar panels to the rear roof slope. The windows are uPVC-framed, double-glazed units with two pairs of complementary French doors from the main reception rooms onto the sunny rear garden and patio. Heating is by a gas central heating system with an efficient condensing boiler and a pressurised hot water system. The high efficiency and low running costs of this 4x double-bedroomed house are clearly apparent from the EPC graph and electricity cost savings are enhanced by the solar panels and high thermal insulation qualities within the construction specification. In addition, a free-standing bioethanol flueless fire and surround has been installed as a focal point in the lounge.

The present owners benefitted from an early opportunity to choose this particular home which stands on the very fringe of Louth, facing open countryside with landscaped ponds in the foreground. The rear garden is superbly orientated for the sun and particularly sheltered with a wide suntrap patio and solar uplighters illuminating the rear elevation of the house during summer evenings.

An ideal family home, the versatile third reception room is perfect for home working or could be a playroom, fifth bedroom, snug or a hobby room as required. The impressive, fitted dining kitchen has integrated Zanussi appliances and is open plan with the dining/sitting room beyond. The latter presently forms a large dining room for the present owners but could be readily formed into dining and seating areas to create a large living/dining kitchen overall. The front windows of the kitchen and study both have fitted white plantation shutters.

On the first floor, the bedrooms are of generous proportions, light and airy with far-reaching panoramic views from the two front windows across the fields towards the coast and passing ships can be spied in the distance on a clear day. The contemporary ensuite shower room to the master bedroom and the main family bathroom are both bright and immaculately presented with white suites. An ensuite dressing area has been imaginatively created to one side of the master bedroom with modern, sleek fittings, open fronted clothes hanging spaces, drawers and compartments.

The house is fitted with a security alarm system and the floors are finished in a combination of Moduleo oak luxury vinyl tiled flooring and luxurious deep pile carpets. The internal doors are white and finished in four-panel style with chrome handles.

Maintained in immaculate condition, the house represents a turn-key opportunity to walk into a fabulous contemporary lifestyle in a setting which combines town and country living. The rooms are described in more detail following the schedule of photographs and please note that the floor plans indicate the approximate room dimensions and are indicative of the room layout as they are not to specific scale.
