Impressive detached family home in substantial grounds of just under 1 acre with an all-weather tennis court and potential for a separate plot.

Description

6 Cammo Road is an impressive detached family home offering spacious, comfortable and wonderfully bright accommodation over two principal floors. With aspects on all sides of the house there is an abundance of natural light throughout the day, with delightful outlooks over the generous and mature side garden, as well as to the tennis court to the rear of the house. The property is generous in proportion with superb family living and reception space throughout the ground floor complemented by generous and airy double bedrooms on the first floor making this an exceptional family home.

The front door opens to the welcoming and broad reception hall, from where the principal reception rooms radiate and the stair rises to the upper floor. The dining room and study are situated to the front of the house overlooking the south facing front garden and driveway, while the elegant drawing room faces west and has a glorious bay-window with views of the west garden. There are double doors from both the dining and drawing rooms leading outside. The well-appointed kitchen is a particularly practical and generous room with bi-folding doors opening to the west facing conservatory, which again has doors opening to the garden. Also on this floor are the substantial utility room, two cloakrooms with WCs as well as various store rooms. One of the cloakrooms has a lift, suitable for wheelchair use, rising to the seventh bedroom on the first floor.

The stair rises to the first floor where there are six comfortable double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is situated over the drawing room and has a delightful bay-window overlooking the garden, while bedrooms two, three and four face south to the front of the house. The principal bedroom has an en suite bath and shower room as well as a walk-in wardrobe. There are two further family bathrooms serving the other bedrooms. There is an extensive loft accessed via a hatch outside bedroom six.

The house sits in generous grounds of just under one acre in total. The house is well screened by a mature hedging and trees to the front with a generous sweeping driveway with gated access at either end of the plot. There is ample parking for a number of vehicles in front of the large double garage. To the rear of the property there is a recently re-conditioned all weather tennis court with surrounding fencing and hedging. Behind the court are the former stables which provide excellent storage space for garden equipment and could be used for keeping animals.

The western portion of garden is delightful with a wide variety of mature plants, shrubs and trees providing an abundance of colour for much of the year. With a driveway entrance at the front, this area offers potential for a plot to build an additional dwelling, subject to the necessary consents.
