5 bedroom detached house for sale

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial family home of approximately 3,100 sq ft, situated on this highly desirable road within close proximity of the village and backing directly onto the open forest at North Weirs.

Available for the first time in 34 years, the property has been well maintained and thoughtfully extended, while still offering further potential for enlargement, subject to the necessary consents. The accommodation comprises five double bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite facilities. The principal reception areas provide light and spacious accommodation with views over the extensive, west-facing rear gardens.

The level, mature grounds extend to approximately one acre, offering a high degree of privacy and seclusion.

A covered storm porch sits over the front door, leading into a generous and light-filled reception hall. Glazed doors open from the hall into the main reception rooms, and a feature turning staircase rises to the first-floor galleried landing. A well-appointed cloakroom is also accessed from the hall.

Glazed double doors open into the triple-aspect drawing room, featuring a wide bay window enjoying views of the side gardens. A further set of French doors provides access to the rear terrace and gardens. An open fireplace set within a brick surround and hearth forms an attractive focal point of the room.

The dining room is accessed via glazed double doors from the hallway and benefits from front-aspect windows, while a generous study is positioned to the rear of the hall, overlooking the rear garden and fitted with extensive built-in cabinetry.

The fitted kitchen/breakfast room enjoys dual aspects and is equipped with a modern range of wall and base units, complemented by coordinating quartz work surfaces and upstands. A central island provides additional preparation space, storage, and a breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include a fridge and dishwasher, with space for a large range cooker with fitted extractor above. The kitchen also benefits from a Quooker hot water system and a water softener. The kitchen opens into a breakfast area overlooking the front garden and driveway.

A cosy family room is set off the kitchen, providing a further comfortable reception space, with double doors leading into a generous garden room overlooking the rear gardens. Additional double doors open from the garden room directly onto the garden.
