Accommodation - A uPVC entrance door with flanking picture window opens into a wide and welcoming through-reception hallway, setting the tone for the space and light found throughout the home. There is a useful built-in coat and boot cupboard, and an impressive balustraded staircase with turned spindles rising to the first floor. To the left, the hallway leads into a formal dining room, ideal for entertaining or as an additional reception room. At the end of the hallway is a wonderful, refitted guest cloaks/shower room equipped with vanity unit with an inset wash hand basin and WC to the side alongside a generous sized shower enclosure.

The heart of the home is the well-appointed refitted family breakfast kitchen, fitted with an extensive range of soft cream base and wall-mounted cabinets wrapping around the room, complemented by coordinating work surfaces. Features include a one-and-a-half bowl sink with mixer tap, integrated ceramic electric hob with eye-level oven, and attractive metro-style tiled splashbacks. An integrated dishwasher and ample space for a family dining table make this a highly functional and sociable room. A uPVC double-glazed window above the sink enjoys views across the gardens.

Adjoining the kitchen is an equally generous utility/boot room, fitted with further cabinetry, a second sink, and space for a fridge freezer and washing machine. From here, there is internal access to the double garage, as well as a uPVC double-glazed door opening directly onto the rear garden.

The through living room is both elegant and comfortable, with an attractive feature fireplace as the focal point, ornate ceiling coving, and wide double-glazed patio doors flooding the room with natural light. These doors lead seamlessly into the uPVC double-glazed conservatory, which enjoys a clear glass roof, full-height picture windows, and French doors opening onto the patio - a perfect space for relaxing while enjoying views of the garden throughout the seasons.

First Floor - The first-floor landing features a balustraded return with half-gallery, overlooking the hallway below. Arranged around the landing are four truly double bedrooms. Bedrooms one and four enjoy beautiful views across the rear garden and the rolling countryside beyond, while bedrooms two and three face the front of the property and both benefit from bespoke luxury fitted wardrobes, offering excellent storage with shelving and hanging rails.

The family bathroom has been stylishly updated with a contemporary suite comprising a bath with electric shower over and feature tiled walls, a vanity unit with double-door storage and modern wash-hand basin with mixer tap, concealed-cistern WC, and a polished porcelain tiled floor. With the bathroom lying adjacent to bedroom one, there is excellent potential (subject to the usual consents) to create a private en-suite shower room.

Outside - The property enjoys a high degree of privacy, screened from the lane by mature conifers. Twin sets of composite anthracite-grey gates (one electric) open onto a sweeping in-and-out gravel driveway, providing excellent secure off-road parking and privacy. In addition to the double garage (electric roller door), there is further gated side access drive, ideal for a caravan or motorhome.

To the rear are westerly facing beautifully landscaped and private gardens, thoughtfully planted with a wide variety of mature flowers, shrubs, and trees. An extensive paved patio provides an ideal entertaining space, with steps rising to a second patio and lawn beyond. At the top of the garden, a hidden seating area enjoys open views across the fields to the rear, providing the perfect spot from which to take in some of the most fabulous sunsets.

Agent's Note: The property to the rear at 1 Highfields Close has planning permission for a swimming pool and gym extension. It is believed that the lower ground level of the property behind, together with existing screening trees, will mean the development should have little to no impact on Redburrow.
