A home of style and character with a very smart self contained annexe

Description

This characterful home is most individual and presented in lovely decorative order throughout. The addition of a fully self-contained annexe in 2009 makes it an ideal purchase for those seeking to house a dependant relative or perhaps to generate rental income (subject to planning). Set just across the courtyard driveway, this stylish property would also make a wonderful home office suite, affording privacy from the main home and a retreat from the hustle and bustle of family living.
The property is approached via a gated entrance opening to a smartly paved driveway that leads around to established lawned gardens, safely enclosed for those with young children or pets. Within the grounds there is a substantial brick built workshop/bike store (perfect as a home gym) and two further storage sheds/summerhouse. The front porch leads via a substantial Oak door to a very comfortable and generously proportioned sitting room with exposed ceiling beams, a flagstone floor and a feature brick fireplace incorporating a Villager woodburning stove.
The kitchen offers a good deal of storage with custom built cottage style cupboards built from reclaimed red Cedar, a Belfast sink and a classic Rangemaster stove. A separate utility room with slate flooring also houses the oil fired central heating boiler. The dining room is of a good size and extends into lobby area with a door to the garden. There is a useful downstairs cloakroom and on the first floor, four double bedrooms with a smartly appointed family bathroom. Two of these bedrooms feature open vaulted ceilings ensuring that they benefit from maximum natural light and a good sense of space.
The annexe offers 575 sq ft of independent accommodation with a 22’8 open plan kitchen/living space with integral appliances and housing the LPG fuelled central heating boiler. A staircase rises from the living space to the first floor bedroom with ensuite shower room.
Both the main house and annexe benefit from double glazed windows throughout.
