Description:
With character in abundance, Beech House is a beautiful period home dating to the 1920's. With a spacious configuration, its extended layout offers great flexibility of use while retaining character and Arts and Crafts detailing. Set back from the road behind mature hedging and several trees, the property has a sweeping carriage driveway providing off-street parking for multiple vehicles and a large lawn. The front door opens into a spacious entrance hall with timber flooring. The triple aspect living room is adjacent, and is a lovely space with a handsome stone feature fireplace, leading into a bright conservatory with views of the garden. The house has a separate formal dining room with a large bay window and there is a spacious kitchen with a good range of fitted storage cupboards and ample room for more informal dining. The ground floor accommodation also includes a further reception room, utility room and study, and there is internal access to the double garage with steps up to a first floor workshop above. The layout of the house and its inclusion of a ground floor shower room means that it would lend itself well to create a separate annexe if needed. The first floor landing has large windows to the front and gives access to five bedrooms, four of which are generous doubles. The principal bedroom is especially spacious, with a pretty bay window and excellent fitted storage, and this has the advantage of a large en-suite shower room. The attractive grounds wrap around the property and the south facing rear garden is a particularly attractive feature. Landscaped to create a large lawn, with a path to the perimeter, it is bordered by high hedges and has multiple mature shrubs and trees giving an excellent level of privacy.
City centre 0.25 miles, Station 0.75 miles (19 minutes to London St. Pancras), M25 (Jct 22) 4.5 miles.
