5 bedroom detached house for sale

Summerfield house forms one of two striking detached houses designed by renowned architects rockets (Hazel McCormack Young) constructed in around 2018 to provide spacious open plan, family orientated accommodation arranged over three floors with photovoltaic solar panels installed on the zinc roofs, aluminium double glazed windows and under floor heating throughout the ground floor.

The front door lead into the bright and spacious reception hall with doors to the cloakroom, plus a coat cupboard. There is also a generous utility room, with ample storage and space for appliances.

Beyond is the triple aspect, open plan sitting/dining/kitchen area with a built in fireplace to the sunken living room space, that also enjoys impressive floor to ceiling, sliding glass doors accessing the garden. The dining area enjoys an outlook over the gardens and the kitchen provides all the mod cons one would expect from a modern house, with a central island and several integrated appliances, window to front and a door to the side out to the garden.

Stairs from the corner of the living space leads to the first floor, providing four double bedrooms, including the double aspect main bedroom with a good sized en-suite shower room and a generous family bathroom.

The second floor provides two further bedrooms, one with an en-suite and extensive storage areas in the eaves. It is considered that this area can easily form a nanny-suite, if reuired, or a sensible, tucked away home office!

Externally the property has brick, zinc and timber clad elevations beneath asymmetric zinc roofs with the aforementioned solar panels and anthracite aluminium windows. There is ample block paving creating parking for several cars, and access to a double garage, now forming a store room.

The rear garden has a large decked patio immediately behind the drawing room, with low walls and steps up to the almost level lawn which is wall and fence enclosed and South west facing. The gardens have matured well over the last few years, offering privacy yet also scope to be landscaped further.
