The front door opens into an entrance hallway with original parquet flooring, a guest cloakroom and a staircase rising to the first floor. A small garden room is located off the hallway, and double doors open on to the garden. An open-plan kitchen/dining room has plenty of light and suits modern-day living, with a dual aspect and lovely views across the garden. The recently updated kitchen features cherrywood units, granite worktops, Turkish marble flooring, a central island and a separate breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include a Neff dishwasher, hob, extractor, two ovens, warming drawer, a Bosch coffee machine, Klarstein wine fridge and Miele fridge/freezer.
There are two sets of large double doors opening on to the garden. From the kitchen is a utility room, rear entrance porch, and a conservatory with a gardener's WC, boiler room, and access to the integral double garage.
The large lounge has windows to two sides, a fireplace and built-in cupboards. A separate study/playroom with a bay window and side aspect is accessed from the hallway.
Upstairs, the large stained glass window on the landing is a beautiful property feature. The principal bedroom is generous in size, with built-in wardrobes and a bay window. A further large bedroom with a dual aspect and stunning view could also be used as the principal suite. There are three more double bedrooms, two with built-in wardrobes, a family bathroom, a separate WC, and a shower room.
The property has a gated entrance, and the driveway leads to a parking area in front of the house for several cars and, a detached double garage and an integral double garage. A wooden gate opens to a rear driveway with two buildings and a large greenhouse. There is excellent scope for a buyer to replace these dwellings, subject to the necessary consents.
A pathway leads around the house and gives access to the south-facing garden. The garden has lovely views, several mature trees, and a pond.
Planning permission has been granted for a two-storey extension over the existing garage and conservatory attached to the house (reference W/22/1595). This would convert the current integral double garage into the main house's accommodation, with two additional upstairs bedrooms with en suite bathrooms.
