Description
A welcoming entrance porch with an obscure double-glazed door leads into the reception hallway, which offers access to loft storage, a cloaks cupboard with hanging rail and shelving, and an airing cupboard with a water cylinder and slatted shelving.
The spacious L-shaped lounge and dining room features double-glazed sliding doors to the front, two side windows, an attractive marble fireplace with hearth and mantle, and three radiators. A multi-paned door connects to the kitchen/breakfast room.
The kitchen is fitted with two stainless steel sink units, storage cupboards and drawers, matching wall units, and part-tiled walls. There is space and plumbing for a washing machine, an upright fridge/freezer, and a breakfast table. Appliances include an electric double oven, a four-ring gas hob, and an extractor hood. Ceiling spotlights illuminate the space, and a part-glass door opens onto the rear garden.
From the hallway, doors lead to the bedrooms and home office. The first double bedroom has a radiator and opens into a conservatory, which has tiled flooring, a radiator, double-glass windows overlooking the gardens and countryside beyond, and double doors to the gardens. The home office or additional bedroom features a double-glazed window, radiator, and fitted book shelving. Another double bedroom overlooks the gardens and includes a fitted double wardrobe.
The principal bedroom is a generous space with a garden view, a range of mirror-fronted wardrobes with hanging and shelving, a corner shelf unit, and a radiator. The en suite bathroom has a vanity wash hand basin with mixer tap, mirrored wall cabinet with light, storage cupboards and drawers, a low-level WC, a fully tiled separate shower with electric shower unit, chrome heated towel rail, and an obscure double-glazed window. A further family bathroom includes a pedestal wash basin with wall mirror and light, low-level WC, panelled bath with mixer tap and shower attachment, part-tiled walls, chrome heated towel rail, and an obscure window.
Outside, the property is accessed via a shared driveway leading to a pillared entrance and private driveway with parking for at least five cars. A double garage features twin remote-controlled doors, power, light, and a patterned-glass courtesy door to the side. The gardens are a mix of lawns, sun patios, beautifully planted borders, paved pathways, sheds, and further planted and gravelled areas, all enclosed with a side pedestrian gate and outside courtesy lighting.
