4 bedroom detached house for sale

The house has been carefully planned around a spacious central reception hall with a vaulted ceiling and galleried landing above, creating a strong sense of light and volume from the moment you enter. The ground floor provides a series of well-balanced reception rooms together with a large kitchen/breakfast room forming the natural heart of the home, while upstairs four well-proportioned bedrooms are arranged around the bright landing.

Externally, the property benefits from ample off-road parking, a detached double garage and a private rear garden designed for both entertaining and family use.

Ground Floor

The accommodation is centred around a striking entrance hall featuring an oak floor, oak staircase and vaulted ceiling rising to the first floor landing. This generous space sets the tone for the remainder of the house, offering both scale and practicality.

To one side lies the principal living room, a well-proportioned reception space extending to over 19 ft in length. French doors open directly onto the rear garden, allowing natural light to flood the room, while a log burner set within a fireplace surround provides a clear focal point and adds warmth and character.

The kitchen/breakfast room is positioned to the rear of the property and forms the true hub of daily life. Measuring nearly 20 ft by 19 ft at its maximum dimensions, it provides extensive workspace and storage, integrated appliances and a central island with granite work surfaces. There is ample room for informal dining and seating, making this a highly sociable and functional space with direct access to the garden.

Adjoining the kitchen is a large utility room with additional storage and external access, helping to keep the main living areas organised and uncluttered.

A separate family room, originally designed as a formal dining room, offers flexibility depending on requirements — ideal as a playroom, snug, or even a ground floor bedroom if needed. In addition, a dedicated study provides an ideal environment for home working or quiet retreat.

A cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

First Floor

The first floor is arranged around a bright galleried landing that overlooks the entrance hall below, enhancing the sense of space and architectural cohesion.

The principal bedroom is a generous double room with twin double wardrobes and a private en suite shower room fitted with a double shower and fully tiled surround.

Bedroom two is another substantial double room, extending to over 19 ft in length, and also benefits from its own en suite facilities, making it ideal for guests or older children.

Bedrooms three and four are both well-proportioned rooms served by a modern family bathroom fitted with a bath, separate shower, wash basin and WC.

The layout offers a practical balance of privacy and shared space, well suited to modern family living.

Garden

The property is approached via a long block paved driveway leading to electronically controlled gates, opening onto a generous forecourt providing ample off-road parking.

A detached double garage (approximately 17 ft by 16 ft 8 in) sits to the side of the property and is currently utilised as a home gym, although it offers obvious potential for a variety of alternative uses subject to requirements.

To the rear, the garden has been arranged with both entertaining and privacy in mind. A substantial stone patio extends across the back of the house, providing an ideal setting for outdoor dining and summer gatherings.

Beyond this lies a lawned garden bordered by raised beds, fencing and established planting, all of which combine to create a high degree of seclusion.
