Beautifully presented family home in sought-after road.

Description

This wonderful 1930’s home, recently extended and modernised, tastefully blends the charm of original features with contemporary elegance.

With the benefit of a covered porch, you enter into an inviting entrance hall decorated with stylish engineered oak flooring. Immediately to the left is a cosy reception room boasting a wood-burning stove and beautiful bay window, offering a snug retreat during the winter months. On the opposite side is the elegant double aspect reception room; a charming open fireplace creating the perfect focal point flanked by fitted cupboards and shelving. This room can be conveniently accessed from both the entrance hall and kitchen.
The pièce de resistance is the expansive open plan kitchen/dining/family room which is bathed in natural light courtesy of two large sets of bifold doors. These doors open entirely to seamlessly merge indoor and outdoor living in the warmer months. The kitchen showcases sleek white handleless units and integrated Bosch appliances including a coffee machine and useful warming drawer with sand coloured Silestone worktops. A large island unit, housing ample storage, the stove and sink, creates a wonderful focal point with an Elica cylindrical extractor fan suspended from the ceiling above. Adjacent to the kitchen is a spacious dining area perfectly positioned to benefit from uninterrupted views of the garden, whilst the family area provides the perfect space for TV watching/relaxation. This room benefits from underfloor heating throughout. Accessed via the kitchen, the utility room offers additional practicality, with external access for convenience.
Tucked away at the side of the property, a dual-aspect office offers a tranquil workspace with two fitted cupboards to your left as you enter. A guest WC completes the ground floor.

On the second floor there are five bedrooms, three bathrooms and a plethora of storage space. The principal bedroom has a wall of fitted wardrobes and a spacious en suite with bidet, bath and separate walk-in shower. Bedroom three also benefits from an en suite shower room. The remaining three bedrooms are all double in size and have the use of the elegant family bathroom.

Externally to the rear is the expansive, south-facing landscaped garden; several majestic trees forming an attractive backdrop. The spacious terrace stretches gracefully across the width of the property with two grand awnings extending from the house providing the perfect space for al fresco dining and entertaining.
From here, stone steps guide the way to the kidney-shaped lawn framed by vibrant blooms and foliage. A second, smaller patio strategically positioned to benefit from the sun, offers a tranquil spot for relaxation. At the far end of the garden you find a treehouse and play area, nestled amidst the branches of a sturdy tree, next to which is an allotment and useful shed.
At the front of the property there is ample space for off-street parking with a driveway to the right hand side leading to the detached double garage. There is rear access on either side.
The property also benefits from subtly positioned solar paneling and Cat 6 cabling throughout.
