5 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

DESCRIPTION
Creighton Road enjoys a fairly unique location rurally situated between the villages of Woodham and Westcott and comprises just 4 houses that were built in the 1950s to accommodate senior staff at
the old Calvert brickworks. The interior of number 1 is nicely presented with well proportioned rooms and yet more scope for extensions particularly at the back of the property and the kitchen area, obviously subject to the necessary consent. Much of the house now has LED downlighting. At the entrance is a wide porch and then an almost new composite door into the hall which contains the staircase that has a cupboard beneath. From the porch are sandstone flagstones and this flooring continues along the hall to the back of the house where there is a utility cupboard housing the washing machine and tumble dryer, and a cloakroom with a wc and wash basin. The kitchen which has been opened out a little is fitted in grey units and beech style worktops has a butlers sink, a built in oven and grill and a 4 burner gas hob with an extractor hood above. Space is available for a larder style fridge/freezer. The dining room and sitting room are both good sizes, each has a handsome fireplace, the dining rooms being classically Victorian with a wood surround and patterned tiled slips which incorporates a gas fire, and the sitting rooms hosting a woodburning stove.
On the first floor are four bedrooms although the smallest is more a suited as a study as it contains the stairs up to the attic rooms. The other three are all doubles, the principal bedroom being dual aspect and extremely spacious and complimented by an equally spacious ensuite. Both the ensuite and the family bathroom have been refitted, the ensuite having a freestanding roll top bath with ball and claw feet and a separate shower and the family bathroom an oversize shower. Each has a wc and a stone wash basin set into a washstand.
On the second floor is a storage cupboard from the landing and then two further double bedrooms.

OUTSIDE
The front and far side boundaries are walled and behind the former is a decent patch of grass that is used as a pleasant front seating area.. There is a driveway with hardstanding for 4 or 5 vehicles and a detached timber outbuilding/office that is dry lined with 2 windows, doors at the front and side, mains power and lighting. Gated access between the property and the outbuilding leads to the garden that is
mostly lawned with a backdrop of trees. Off the house is a large decked terrace and covered arbour that has a floodlight, and within the lawn is an ornamental pond. The boundaries are securely enclosed by wooden fencing and brick walls.
