3 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

A rare chance to acquire one of these spacious traditional-style houses set within a small and exclusive crescent surrounding a central green. Occupying a prime position within The Oval, this appealing double-fronted semi-detached house boasts a magnificent sizeable mature back garden, and the superb plot extends to around a third of an acre. There is ample parking to the front, and security gates open to further parking and a large detached double garage block with a storage floor above, that subject to planning would provide additional accommodation . The brick and block construction of the garage block offers the potential to convert to a homeworking office or studio space. The house's interior is absolutely stunning, not only in terms of the size and layout but also the magnificent, high-quality interior design. To the ground floor, there is a central entrance hall, a family room with a wood-burning stove and a large 18ft lounge with a multi-fuel stove and fireplace. The lounge opens to the 15ft dining room at the rear, which features a vaulted ceiling with downlighters and double doors to the back gardens. The dining room opens to a large refitted kitchen with high gloss units and hardwood and granite work surfaces. An extension has been added, providing a rear hall, cloakroom/wc and utility room. The first floor has also been remodelled, creating three beautifully appointed double bedrooms, all of which include cast iron fireplaces. The spacious family bathroom has been refitted to include a white suite with a Jacuzzi bath, a large walk-in shower enclosure and attractive Travertine tiling. From the 18ft landing, a staircase leads to two second-floor attic rooms with skylight windows. The extensive gardens are, of course, a significant feature of this exceptional property. Offering a good degree of privacy to all sides, the westerly facing back garden includes lawns, mature trees, a large fish pond, a vegetable plot and secure gated parking. Opportunities to purchase such a magnificent home are rarely available, and we strongly recommend early viewing.
