Cantle Avenue, Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire

Why buy this home?

At just under 1600 sq.ft this home offers well proportioned downstairs living space, with numerous reception rooms and spacious bedrooms upstairs.

Upon first entering the property you are greeted by a welcoming entrance hall, a downstairs WC directly to your right hand side, to which the current owner has added real character with feature wallpaper and a vanity unit hand basin for extra storage.

Carrying on straight through the home, to your left hand side is the living room which measures over 16 foot in length, giving you plenty of space for various furniture layouts. There is a feature gas fireplace, and the current owner has the room set up with a three seater sofa and two armchairs, as well as a couple of side units and yet this space still feels roomy. Behind the living room is the dining room which could easily house a six or eight seater dining table and chairs. From the dining room is another door leading directly into the kitchen, which is great when having guests over for dinner and needing easy access into the kitchen whilst cooking. A set of double sliding doors finally leads you into a good sized conservatory, taking advantage of the views of the private garden.

Back through the dining room and at the rear of the house is the kitchen, which offers ample cupboards and worktops and provides lots of preparation space, very useful when cooking for those big family gatherings. It is equipped with an AEG oven and a brand new AEG hob that the owner has just had installed, a dishwasher and a full length fridge. The utility room is a great size and leads off from the kitchen; it offers even more cupboard space meaning you really will not run out of storage in this home. The utility also provides a sink and the space for a washing machine and separate tumble dryer, an integral door into the garage and the back door into the garden.

The garden is very private and surrounded by established trees. It has been beautifully landscaped with a large patio area that offers space for outside dining and a further composite decked area. There is currently a fish pond, however this could be filled if needed and this area replaced with lawn should it suit you more.

Taking the stairs to the first floor, a central landing gives access to all of the bedrooms. The master bedroom is at the back of the house and makes the most of the views over the garden. Measuring nearly 4m x 4m in size, it has floor to ceiling built in triple mirrored wardrobes providing adequate storage space. There is an en-suite bathroom, with double shower and a vanity unit hand basin with storage underneath and a large wall mirror. Bedroom 2 is very impressive, measuring nearly 7 meters in length. The current owner previously had two double beds in this room, as well as chests of drawers. Bedroom 3 is at the front of the property and is another good sized double with ample room for a double bed, wardrobes and chest of drawers. Bedroom 4 is a single and has double Velux windows. If needed, you could potentially have the option to reconfigure the space by moving a few walls around between bedrooms 2 and 4. The conversion of bedroom 4 into a further double by taking some of the space from bedroom 2, would then give you four good sized double bedrooms overall. Finally there is a generous family bathroom, with spa bath and shower over, hand basin with storage cupboard underneath and a window.
