5 bedroom detached house for sale

After parking in the double garage or on the 3-4 car driveway at the end of this private drive you enter the property into a stunning entrance hall, a grand entrance for all visitors to this beautiful home. The porcelain tiled flooring leads the eye past the impressive oak and glass staircase to the open plan kitchen, dining room and snug area beyond. The entrance hall has a large cloakroom storage cupboard, access to all ground floor rooms, the double garage plus a useful ground floor toilet.

To the front of the property, despite its generous size, the lounge feels cosy, with a fabulous focal fireplace with remote controlled luxury living flame gas fire and modern bay windows. The rest of the ground floor is open plan, bright and spacious, amalgamating the original David Wilson designed kitchen, study and dining room plus a converted conservatory to create a superb living space. The central point is a raised breakfast bar bridging the dining room / snug area and the luxury kitchen, which has an extensive range of wall and base units, granite worktops and upstands plus ceramic tiled walls. Integrated appliances include fridge freezer, dishwasher, twin electric ovens and a gas hob with extractor. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility room with matching units and space to accommodate both laundry appliances plus an external side door. And the flowing porcelain tiles culminate to the rear in the sun room, a converted conservatory with insulated solid roof and French doors onto the beautifully landscaped rear garden.

To the first floor there is excellent accommodation for a large family with 5 double bedrooms, an ensuite and bathroom. Bedroom 1 to the front is an extremely generous room with fitted wardrobes and a large ensuite bathroom having both bath and separate shower enclosure. Bedroom 2 to the rear is another sizeable double bedroom with the opportunity for another ensuite shower room if required. Bedroom 3, also to the rear, has fitted wardrobes and bedrooms 4 & 5 to the front are very similarly sized double bedrooms. Finally we finish with the recently refitted Porcelanosa luxury bathroom which has both bath and separate shower enclosure, simply stunning.

Outside, the recently landscaped and quite private South West facing rear garden has 2 impressive patio areas, a central lawn and side access to the front of the property.
