Description

Grasmere Avenue is a detached home which has been extensively updated over the years to create a spacious and modern family residence with flexible accommodation. In addition to a total internal renovation, the vendors also undertook landscaping to the front and rear gardens. The detached property was originally built in the 1960s but now has a contemporary feel throughout, with well-presented interiors featuring neutral colours and premium materials. The result is a bright and appealing home which provides the ideal blank canvas for the new owner to personalise to their individual tastes.

The layout extends to more than 2,380 sq ft and comprises an entrance hall with cloakroom/w.c. leading to the kitchen/dining room with adjoining utility room; a large L-shaped lounge/reception room at the front of the house; a further L-shaped reception room to the rear which opens via French doors to a conservatory; plus a home office/study. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms with en suite facilities, a further two good size bedrooms and a family bath/shower room.

A good-size gravel driveway approaches the house and provides ample off-street parking. Though the garage has been partially converted to create a larger living space, it is still functional for storage and provides a useful space for keeping tools and bikes secured away. The rear garden is of a low-maintenance design comprising a paved patio terrace for entertaining, an attractive timber summerhouse and an artificial lawn. There are a number of well-stocked borders featuring shrubs and bedding plants and the whole garden is well enclosed by mature hedges, giving the space a secluded feel.
