5 bedroom detached house for sale

Council tax band: H

A truly beautiful and highly individual five bedroom detached family home which is set back from the road and within generous, mature and established gardens. Built in 1930 and located within The Chapman Conservation area the property was designed by Mr Chapman himself who actually resided in the house and has only changed hands twice including the current owners. The property oozes a wealth of character and charm throughout with a most generous interior in excess of 3000 sq ft.
The entrance hall sets the scene which is welcoming and has leaded light windows along with a prominent floor to ceiling mock brick fireplace and a cloakroom with wc. Although the property does require some modernisation the accommodation offers huge potential and you would want to retain the character features throughout. In particular there is a beautiful and spacious lounge featuring a pretty brick fireplace, attractive bay window, beams to the ceiling and lovely quaint wooden french doors that open out onto the garden. Also on the ground floor is an appealing character dining room with garden aspect and door to a wine storage cupboard, inner hall with " Butlers Pantry " and plenty of storage, two additional reception rooms with fireplaces and a kitchen breakfast room.
The first floor continues to appeal with a spacious landing which offers the space for an additional staircase to the large loft which is currently arranged as two rooms and offers much potential subject to planning to possibly create a bedroom suite, stunning and spacious double aspect principal bedroom with wardrobes, four further bedrooms, family bathroom and a separate shower room which can be accessed from both the landing and bedroom three.
Without doubt one of the main features of this delightful home are the lovely mature and established gardens which surround the property and offer a high degree of privacy with a generous lawn area, variety of shrubs, bushes and trees, patio with summerhouse, storage outbuilding, coal store along with a great 36 ft garage. To the front is an in and out driveway offering plenty of parking and lawn.
An internal viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate this most unique and particularly appealing family home.
