Port Road West, Barry

Tastefully finished to an extremely high standard and recently renovated, this detached five-bedroom family home is a real find. It has been lovingly looked after and extended, making the most of its 1960s classic bones.

Snuggled in its landscaped, mature plot and set back from the road behind its driveway and front garden, this property sits less on the outskirts of Barry, meaning that all amenities are at a stone's throw. It is just a short walk from miles of countryside, beaches and parkland, whilst also being close to where all local amenities and a great sense of community spirit can be found. One can walk or cycle easily around the local area, making it the perfect setting for family life full of adventures. The property is within catchment areas for excellent local schooling - and with major road, rail and air links close by, that commute is a breeze.

First impressions of this property are simply lovely. Walk past the front garden or park on the private drive, making your way to the porched front door and let the urge to explore further take you inside this gorgeous family home.

The recently added porch and ground floor hallway lead to the living room and snug, open concept kitchen and dining room, utility room and ground floor WC. The bespoke, handmade ash staircase leads to the first floor, where you will find five bedrooms (one with en suite bathroom) and family bathroom.

Large windows and multiple sets of French doors flood the spacious rooms with an abundance of natural light. Each space is tastefully decorated in a neutral palate, helping the elegant features to really shine. There is a real feeling of space, flow and elegance throughout this home.

The living room is a relaxing spot with plenty of space for the biggest of sofas. The large windows and French doors flood the room with plenty of natural light and furnishes the space with fantastic views over the rear garden. Again, there is a feeling of light and space in this room - and with sight lines through into the outdoor space (and beyond - check out the far-reaching views over the Vale!) and snug, everyone can be kept an eye on, wherever they are.

Take a look into the snug area, nestled next to the living room and decorated in that classic neutral palate. Partitioned from the main room, this versatile area could be an office, play room or chill out space, to name but a few options. This home is a great entertaining space, whilst being super flexible for family life.

The bespoke country-style kitchen and dining room, full of storage solutions and space, is perfect for modern living. The dining room area gives a large space for a table and seating, with the kitchen full of high-end appliances and plenty of solid oak freestanding furniture. The oak breakfast table island adds further elegant practicality to the space, as do the attractive tile floors, wooden worktops and pantry. The flow through this part of the property is great, just right for that morning coffee in the sunshine - and those all-important sight lines outside through French doors into the rear garden and glorious golf course views beyond the boundary. The utility room with its custom built-in storage is the perfect spot for all those household items that don't need to be on show, giving a further level of practical elegance to this home.

A third reception room, currently being used a breakfast room is found just off the kitchen and the WC rounds off this impressive ground floor.

Pop back into the hallway and take that stunning staircase to find five great sized bedrooms (one with en suite bathroom) and a well-appointed family bathroom. The bespoke glass balustrade and double height tiered ceiling give the galleried landing that dreams are made of.

The spacious master bedroom has views over the rear of the property, with oodles of light brought in through French doors to the Juliette balcony and the very best views. This great-sized double has plenty of room for a big bed and furniture to match. The apex ceiling and wooden panelling is shown off by neutral décor and the classically-styled en suite shower room with separate soaker tub matches practicality with elegance.

Bedroom two is beautifully decorated with views over the rear of the property through more French doors to that beautiful balcony. Another great-sized room with plenty of space makes this a calm and cosy place to bed down for the night. Bedroom three also looks out over the rear of the property through another set of French doors and Juliette balcony. With elegant decor and lots of room for storage, this room is great for an older child's bedroom perhaps. Bedroom four looks over the front of the property and beyond and bedroom five nestles between bedrooms two and three with a lovely view over the rear of the plot.

The stylish sanctuary that is the family bathroom is well designed, ready for any morning routine. Its positioning close to all bedrooms makes real sense adding to the stylish practicality so abundant in this property.

The outside space to the rear of this property is surprising in many ways, stretching the eye much further than you would imagine and bringing a feeling of tranquillity amongst the hubbub of life.

The main patio areas sit to the rear of the property, from which leads the private and quiet garden. A large lawn, summer house, pergola and mature borders showcase quiet spots and sun traps. Stop a while and take in the serenity with a tipple, surrounded by those you love. This garden is just the ticket for balmy summer nights full of laughter, games and a taste of the Good Life.
