The family room is a bright and airy room with a log burner and access to a side porch which opens onto the gardens. A versatile study/ home office could be used as a sixth bedroom and it shares the side porch.
To the side of the property, all accessed from a useful utility room, there is a gym, a further laundry room with a pulley, a pantry, and a wc. The rear porch forms part of the extension which connects to a large workspace. Currently accommodating a small business, the space could easily be repurposed for any number of uses, e.g. kids playroom/ home cinema. Completing the ground floor is a cloakroom/wc accessed from the main hall.
The upper level has a gorgeous principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes, a storage cupboard and a phenomenal refitted en-suite with fresh white four-piece suite including standalone bath and separate shower cubicle. There are four further well-proportioned double bedrooms, a family bathroom with feature bath, and a separate refitted shower room.
The specification includes gas central heating (two replaced boilers, one controlling each floor) and double glazing. The gardens are certain to impress all who view. There is a lawn surrounding the property of around 1 acre, mature trees and shrubs, and a patio area which is perfect for dining and entertaining outside in fine weather. There is a double integral garage and three large connecting store rooms, one of which is set up as a kids playroom with pool table. The store rooms offer excellent storage but could also be converted into further living accommodation if required (subject to planning consent). The sweeping driveway offers ample parking for many cars.
