4 bedroom detached house

As you enter Rowan House, you enter a spacious porch with room to hang coats and kick off shoes. The ground floor layout includes a dual aspect living room with patio doors leading to a side terrace and a fireplace featuring a Jet Master open fire. The kitchen/dining room has been remodelled into a large open-plan area with triple aspects and additional patio doors opening to the rear garden. This space, along with the adjoining utility room, benefits from underfloor heating. There is an additional reception room currently configured as a study but could be a family or playroom with access to the rear garden. A downstairs WC is conveniently located off the hallway.

Heading upstairs you will find four light and spacious double bedrooms, all with fitted storage. The modern family bathroom includes a shower over the bath, while the generous principal bedroom features a full en-suite bathroom with a separate bath and shower.

Once outside Rowan House invites you in through a five-bar gate that opens to a spacious parking bay, framed by vibrant flower borders that burst with colour. Double timber gates to the side of the house provide convenient access for vehicles to the double garage. The garage is well-equipped with lighting, power, and a boarded loft for storage, accessed by a fitted ladder. The rear garden is a private oasis, primarily laid to lawn with a patio terrace and landscaped edges, perfect for relaxing or entertaining.

Note

In March 2022, planning permission was granted (reference PL/2021/11838) to demolish the existing garage and significantly extend the house at the side and rear. The approved plans include a new integrated garage, an additional reception room, and an enlarged principal bedroom suite complete with a dressing room.
