3 bedroom detached house for sale

The Property:

This attractive period cottage provides excellent kerb appeal behind colour washed elevations, under a steep clay tiled roof with inset casement windows and is set back from a gravelled driveway providing parking for several vehicles. The current owners have undertaken a comprehensive programme of upgrading and extension, and the property is beautifully presented. The principal reception spaces all provide a rear aspect overlooking the delightful gardens. The heart of the house is undoubtedly the kitchen/breakfast room, which was an extension and has a double aspect with a window and French doors that open onto the terrace. There are also two roof lights which make this space beautifully light, the kitchen has been fitted with a range of light grey base units with several taller units, as well as a fitted range cooker and an American style fridge/freezer. A centralised island unit has a butler sink and slimline quartz worktops above, with a breakfast counter to one side, although there is also space for a table. The dining room is open plan to the kitchen and there is a separate utility room. The sitting room has a bay that matches the dining room, whilst a family room could equally be used as a fourth bedroom, as there is an adjacent shower room.

To the first floor are two good double bedrooms and a comfortable single, with fitted wardrobes and a refitted bathroom. The gardens to the rear are a delight with a terrace directly behind the house graduating onto a lawn, flanked by deep herbaceous beds either side with a garden path. To the end of the garden is a lightly wooded area with a shed. The total plot measures 0.22 of an acre.

Harestock Road offers excellent and easy access to the station, city, and countryside alike.
