Sitting fairly centrally within its almost acre plot, Danesfield is a typical “Arts and Crafts” home having been originally built in the early 1900s, but has since undergone meticulous extensions and reconfigurations, transforming it into a fantastic family home over two floors. OPEN DAY SATURDAY 4TH MAY by appointment only. Please call the office to arrange your tour.

The layout makes the most of the exceptional ground-floor living spaces and includes a welcoming double aspect sitting room boasting ample natural light, heightened by a sizable lantern, while a conveniently situated study offers picturesque views over the front. At the heart of the home lies the impressive, open-plan kitchen/dining room/family room. With two generous light lanterns and French doors leading to the garden, this space is perfect for entertaining. Completing the ground floor is a separate utility room and a convenient downstairs shower room.

Upstairs there are four bedrooms alongside a family bathroom. The principal bedroom enjoys a fantastic dressing room which could easily be transformed into a fifth bedroom if needed.

Outside, a driveway offers extensive off-street parking and leads to a detached double garage.

Established gardens surround the property and are a delightful feature, with the main lawn interspersed with mature trees, plants, and shrubs alongside a good-sized patio area, perfect for al-fresco dining.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted

    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
