Grey Cobbles is a fine example of architecturally driven design. Sitting on one of the larger plots on 'Millionaire's Row' and occupying 0.9 of an acre (STMS), with its striking butterfly roof, this four bedroom property offers a versatile living space with the most wonderful views. Our vendors have thoroughly enjoyed their time here over the past 21 years, bringing up their family, but now with the children having flown their nest – the time has come for them to downsize. If you are looking for your new home which is private, spacious and adaptable then this property is a must view.
The electric gates give access to a sweeping tarmac driveway which leads up to the property and garages via the well-manicured front garden. As this is a butterfly design house the front door is to the side of the property allowing the front to focus purely on the stunning views. Upon entrance, the reception hall with its beautiful parquet flooring sets the tone of the things to come. To the right hand side, glazed french doors open to the sitting room. With a completely glass wall to the front, a fireplace and french doors leading to the elevated terrace this room is the ideal space to relax and collect your thoughts whilst snuggling up in front of the fireplace. To the other side of the hall is the formal dining room and our vendors tell us they had some great feasts in here – a room filled with fun and laughter. The kitchen is of a good size, equipped with a range of base and wall units and built in appliances, this space is ideal for the avid cook. From the kitchen two doors lead to the utility and garage and the other door to the new part of the property – the extended snug and the garden room, both of which have been cleverly designed to enhance the space and the views. The snug itself is currently used as part study, part sitting area but could easily be a playroom or a cinema room. The French doors into the garden room make for a seamless transition into what has to be the heart and hub of this beautiful family home, with bi-fold doors to the elevated terrace, beautiful sharp lines and a grey cobbled feature wall – a space flooded with natural light and somewhere to create long lasting memories. Completing the ground floor is the WC.
Upstairs, the landing gives access to four double bedrooms, the family bathroom and a further WC, with the principal bedroom and the guest room having their own private en-suite shower rooms. The show-stopping feature however, is the ever changing elevated view from each and every room on this floor, each one being nothing short of astonishing.
As striking and impressive as the property is, the outside space is a fitting match, and it's clear that our vendors are keen gardeners, with meticulous attention having been paid to the design, landscaping and upkeep of the garden. The sweeping driveway is lit all the way up to the property, planting has been well thought out with mature trees and shrubs, the lawns are well maintained and the sitting area delightful – to name but a few elements which make this property's generous and private garden a real haven. There is an integral double garage, and close to the property there is ample space for parking several cars, whilst right at the top of the drive there is a triple cartshed – with the right planning this could easily be transformed into an annexe or letting accommodation. The elevated rear garden has been a great space for the family; wonderful as a football pitch during the earlier years but since having evolved to include a vegetable patch, fruit trees, lawns and shrubs. This, coupled with its stunning views and fantastic accommodation make this property a wonderful opportunity, offering a multitude of possibilities.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted

    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
