Description
An attractive detached family home of charm and character, set back in an elevated position with wonderful far reaching views. Internally, the property offers well proportioned and flexible accommodation whilst externally the gardens act as a delightful backdrop to the house.
Opening into the entrance hall, the triple aspect living room enjoys an outlook to both the front and rear gardens. The room centres around the marble fireplace and there is also access to the rear garden. Both the formal dining room and versatile study also enjoy an outlook to the rear garden. The family room features a high vaulted ceiling with exposed ceiling timbers and skylight windows. It also benefits from a bank of fitted storage cupboards and additional access to the front. From the family room there is access to the separate mud room/utility room with a door opening to the rear of the house.
The spacious kitchen and breakfast room is fitted with a comprehensive range of wall and base cupboards and a selection of appliances.
Rising to the first floor, the principal bedroom benefits from a bank of fitted wardrobes and a well appointed en suite shower room. There are three further bedrooms, one of which has built-in wardrobes and a fitted vanity unit with wash basin. The modern family bathroom comprises a bath with shower over, pedestal wash basin, heated towel rail and W.C.
Externally the property is approached over a carriage driveway, providing ample parking, and flanked by areas of lawn. There is a stone wall with herbaceous beds to the border and steps leading up to the front entrance with a paved terrace. A side pathway from the front garden leads to a pedestrian gate opening to the fenced portion of the front terrace, which extends to the side of the property and lends itself for al fresco dining. A paved pathway leads round to the rear of the property with an adjoining area of lawn. Mature hedging to the border provides a high degree of privacy.
Located on the other side of St. Michaels Drive (opposite the house) is a detached double garage with parking to the front.
