"A charming family home with space to breath and create happy memories..."

Light Filled Living

Step through the studded twin oak doors into an impressive reception hall that sets a tone of comfort and elegance. Original features such as high ceilings adorned with moulded cornices, ceiling roses, and dado panelling evoke the home’s rich character and history, while modern enhancements ensure you are enveloped in both comfort and style. The ground floor has a spacious but cosy living room and a bright and inviting dining room, ideal for entertaining guests with its outlook firmly towards the south facing patio and gardens. A perfect space for enjoying cosy family evenings in or hosting a big summer barbecue for family and friends. The study and sun lounge provide peaceful retreats for work or relaxation.

Hub of The Home!

The modern kitchen is a chef’s delight, equipped with granite worktops and high-quality fittings, adjacent to a very spacious utility/laundry room. The kitchen and dining space are calling out to become one open plan space with the simple creation of a wide archway connecting the two. Imagine preparing meals while the children do their homework at the kitchen table or discussing your day over a family dinner in a large open plan kitchen dining room with gorgeous garden views.

Sleep Tight

Upstairs, the light and airy landing leads to five generously sized bedrooms, each offering unique perspectives. The principal bedroom includes a chic and modern en-suite shower room, offering a private haven to pamper yourself and revitalise. The current guest bedroom, come video games room, has a delightful covered balcony, perfect for morning coffees or evening reads, with a picturesque outlook over the garden and countryside views beyond.

More than Just a Home

There is ample parking for many vehicles and two garages with further potential for a variety of uses or conversion to create an annexe, if needed (subject to planning consent). A gated entrance and high fencing create flexibility, security and privacy.

The extensive south-facing garden is an active family’s dream, providing ample space for a football pitch, tennis court, and/or a custom swimming pool. The full width paved patio provides ample space for al fresco dining, or reclining on an outdoor sofa ensemble for cocktails at sunset—ideal for those long, leisurely summer days or evening gatherings with family, friends and work colleagues.

Out and About

Located in a very sought-after residential area, this home offers easy access to local amenities, including shops, bus services, and the Roundswell Retail Park. Families will appreciate the proximity to excellent state and public schools and the convenience of nearby leisure and shopping venues.
