The home is fronted by a large driveway and manicured lawns, and the front door is tucked under a porch. You are welcomed inside by a practical entrance vestibule (with storage) flowing through to an airy entrance reception hall with space for furniture items and a WC cloakroom. The hall sets the tone for the immaculate interiors to follow with muted décor and herringbone Amtico flooring.
The house boasts three well-proportioned and multi-purpose reception rooms comprising a living room, a formal dining room, and a sitting room/study. The living room is lit by triple-aspect glazing, including four south-facing windows and French doors affording access to the garden, and offers a wonderfully flexible floorspace for a choice of lounge furniture layouts. A separate formal dining room creates the perfect space for sit-down meals and entertaining with family and friends, with ample space for a large dining table and chairs alongside additional furniture. The third room offers various options for use, including a more formal sitting area, a family room, a children’s play room, or, as it is currently used, a study – perfect for those requiring a quiet space to work or study from home.
Set to the rear of the property, the open-plan kitchen and dining room features fabulous bi-folding doors opening onto the rear garden, allowing for sought-after indoor/outdoor living and creating an enviable space for gatherings and family time during the warmer months. The beautifully appointed kitchen is fitted with contemporary handle-less cabinetry in muted tones, supplemented by spacious, waterfall Silestone worktops and a full complement of integrated appliances. There is space for a six-seater table to cater for morning coffee, breakfasts, and casual dining, whilst an adjoining sitting area can accommodate a cosy lounge setting. An adjoining utility room (with external access) supplements the kitchen with additional cabinetry and space for laundry appliances.
From the hall, a bifurcated staircase leads to a landing (with storage) on the first-floor with a snug area/reading nook set next to French doors opening onto a small balcony. The bedrooms are all spacious doubles with neutral décor and fitted carpets, and three feature built-in wardrobes. The principal bedroom has the additional luxuries of a dressing area and a four-piece en-suite bathroom, whilst two of the remaining bedrooms also have en-suites. Three of the bedrooms are rear-facing, peacefully overlooking the garden and boasting a sunny aspect.
The principal bedroom’s en-suite boasts a large enclosure with a rainfall showerhead, a separate bathtub, twin sinks set into vanity storage, and a concealed-cistern WC. Bedrooms two and three’s en-suite shower rooms come complete with shower enclosures and WC-suites, whilst a separate family bathroom completes the accommodation on offer and comprises a bath with a shower attachment, a shower cubicle, a WC-suite, and a tall chrome towel radiator.
A detached garage (with an EV charger) offers private off-street parking at ground level, with a flexible living space above comprising a large studio area and a shower room. A large, multi-car driveway (with electric gates) facilitates further off-street parking for multiple vehicles.
The home is perfectly complemented by a large, securely fenced rear garden, boasting an enviable south-facing aspect and predominantly featuring an exceptionally spacious, well-maintained lawn, with patio areas for outdoor seating and barbecues.
Extras: Integrated kitchen appliances comprising an oven, a microwave, an induction hob, an extractor hood, two fridge/freezers, a dishwasher, and a wine cooler will be included in the sale. Please note, no warranties or guarantees shall be provided for the appliances.
