Brampton Close, Cookley, Kidderminster

An excellent modern home on the fringes of Cookley Village overlooking a field to the front. Featuring a wonderful rear extension providing a superb open-plan family living kitchen with bi-fold doors opening beautifully onto the secluded rear garden.

The property is a wonderful semi-detached home that has been much improved and substantially extended by the current owners. The extensive ground floor accommodation is largely open plan and has a beautiful flow, making it highly usable for modern family living. The full-width rear extension is a superb space for entertaining and socialising, with the bonus of bi-fold doors that open onto the incredibly private rear garden.

On the first floor are three good-sized bedrooms, which sets this property apart from many other houses of a similar age.

Outside, there is plenty of parking and a detached single garage at the side.
The property is approached from the road via a long tarmacadam driveway that can accommodate around three vehicles and leads to the detached single garage located at the side of the property. The latter has an up-and-over door to the front and a double-glazed door to the rear, providing access to the garden. Adjoining the driveway is a front lawn enclosed by neatly maintained hedged boundaries, with a pathway leading to a canopy porch.


Entrance
A front door provides access to the hallway, which has stairs rising to the first floor, a storage cupboard and a door leading to the living room.


Living room
The welcoming living room is centred around a rustic country-style fireplace with an oak beam and an inset wood-burning stove. A large picture window affords this room lovely views of a neighbouring paddock, while a square archway from here flows nicely to the rest of the ground floor accommodation.


Family room
Beyond the living room is a fantastic family room that runs the full width of the ground floor and opens onto the kitchen, providing a wonderfully spacious area combining living, dining and cooking in one space.

This fantastic extension features three Velux skylights and bi-fold doors leading out to the rear garden.


Kitchen
The farmhouse-style kitchen flows nicely from here and is presented to an excellent standard, with shaker-style oak units, a solid wood breakfast bar with an inset ceramic sink, a Range style oven with an extractor above, integrated dishwasher and fridge freezer, tiled floor and downlighters.

Open plan from the kitchen and tucked away in a cosy corner is a useful study area ideal for housing a computer desk and chair.


Utility room/downstairs WC
A utility and downstairs WC complete the ground floor, having two Velux skylights, tiled flooring, a cupboard with space/plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, a chrome towel radiator and a low-level WC/washbasin combo with contemporary tiling for splashback.


First floor
The first-floor landing has an airing cupboard and a loft hatch accessing the roof space.

There are three good-sized bedrooms located on this floor, serviced by a family bathroom.


Bedroom one
Bedroom one is a spacious double bedroom that enjoys pleasant views across a neighbouring field.


Bedrooms two and three
Bedroom two is another spacious double bedroom to the front, while the third bedroom is a good-sized single room overlooking the rear garden.


Bathroom
The well-presented bathroom is fully tiled and has a shower cubicle, a panelled bath, downlighters, a chrome towel radiator, a vanity unit and a low-level WC.


Gardens and grounds
The neatly landscaped rear garden is extremely private and very much geared towards socialising and entertaining. Directly bordering the rear of the house is an L-shaped area of raised decking which flows from the kitchen and family room, making it ideal for al fresco dining.

This sweeps around nicely to a secluded barbecue area laid to gravel and covered by a wooden pergola. There is a central lawn bordered by raised beds and a second raised deck with an accompanying pergola.
