EPC Rating: C  **  Council Tax Band: E

Approach & Exterior

Sweetbriar Way is part a sought-after modern development beside the Old Brickworks Nature Reserve and this property holds arguably the best position within. Viewers approach the property’s corner plot with its large frontage that has off-road parking for multiple cars. As shown in the photos, the current owners store a large caravan on their driveway and this little impact on the amount of parking available.

The driveway comprises of tarmac with block edging and attractive shrubbery to the borders. A patch of lawn in front of the bay window enhances the initial presentation of this fabulous double-fronted house.

A secure gate to the left of the house opens to a passageway that leads to the rear garden. The garden is very generous and has various different sections that include a long patio, lawn, water feature (not included in sale), attractive flowers and shrubbery, and a wide area to the right side of the house where the garden sheds and bin stores are concealed from view. The patio and side passages are laid with lovely flagstones. There is also an outdoor tap and power supply.

Ground Floor

Viewers enter the home via a composite door underneath a wide storm canopy and into the hallway. Even at this initial stage , viewers will appreciate that this is a very well presented home. The flooring is tiled and features under floor heating that continues into the open plan kitchen and sunroom.

Immediately to the left of the hallway is access to a guest WC that also features a wash basin. Beyond this is the staircase leading up to the first floor that has a handy storage cupboard underneath. From the hallway there are doors leading off to the lounge and the kitchen. The lounge is a lovely large reception room that has oak flooring, the gorgeous bay window, and a gas fireplace.  

The open plan kitchen is arguably the best room in the house and is the room where the current owners spend the majority of their time. The kitchen has been opened with the dining room and sunroom to create a large L-shape area for cooking, relaxing, dining, and entertaining. The kitchen suite is fully integrated and very stylish. It includes a dishwasher, large larder fridge, five-burner gas hob fitted into a bespoke built recess with extractor fan over, chest height double oven and a glorious double Belfast sink. The suite facias are a ivory coloured with contrasting dark granite work surfaces.

The dining area is easily big enough to hold a six to eight-seater dining table as well as there being further seating in the sunroom. The sunroom offers the owners a snug area to relax with views of the garden. There is a set of French doors that open out to the patio and two skylight windows within the pitched insulated roof.  

The ground floor continues to the left of the kitchen where stable door opens to a surprisingly long utility room where there is row of units with spaces for a washing machine (with plumbing) and tumble dryer, and also a composite sink with drainer. A door to the rear exits out to the patio and is flanked by two tall windows. At the front of the utility room is a door into the garage.

The garage has been converted into two sections and the front section will be returned to a storage area. The double-opening garage doors to the front are still in place and converted back to a full garage should be relatively simple for the new owners to do if they desire.

First Floor

Moving up the carpeted staircase, viewers arrive at an impressive landing area that has a lovely wooden spindled banister and lots of wall space for artwork and pictures, if desired. Above the landing there is a pull-down hatch with folding loft ladder to access a large, boarded loft space. From the landing there are doors leading off to all five bedrooms, the family bathroom, and a shallow storage cupboard.

The largest bedroom, Bedroom One, is located at the front right of the house, above the lounge. The bedroom is impressive in size with a row of built in wardrobes at the rear of the room leaving the vast open space for a king-sized bed and plenty of other side furniture. Beside the wardrobes is the entrance to the en suite which is another stylish suite. The owners have used space from the landing storage cupboard (hence it now being shallow) to create a long, open shower that is fully tiled. The remaining suite comprises of a chrome heated towel rail, wall mounted drawer unit with wash basin atop, toilet and a backlit wall mirror.

Bedrooms two and three are both impressive doubles that feature built-in wardrobes with bedroom four being a large single / small double bedroom owing to its shape. The fifth bedroom is a rectangular single bedroom that has been modified to a dressing room with a row of wardrobes fitted to the left side of the room.

Finally for the interior is the family bathroom. Another stylish suite, the bathroom has a long bathtub with central taps and a shower fitted over. The shower screen is folds right back to the wall in a concertina fashion. The suite also has a wall-mounted drawer unit with wash basin atop, toilet, backlit wall mirror, chrome heated towel rail and attractive tiling to the walls.
