LIVING SPACES

Welcome inside this super spacious and stylish family home. First of all, as you step through the modern front door, which has glass inset windows for light, a large opaque panel to the side as well as a large double glazed window to the side elevation, making a lovely bright space to deliver natural light into the home.

As you walk through into the living room you will be amazed at the space. This is an amazing family room. What we really love about this area is that it is adaptable in how you decide to lay this space out to work for you. The living room really compliments this house, and perfect for socialising, or the larger family providing excellent floor space for larger corner sofa, separate chairs, and plenty of space for a large media unit, as well as boasting the feature bi-fold doors looking out to the landscaped garden, as well as the circular log-burning fire for those cooler months. Whether spreading out across a large sofa to watch a movie, or snuggled up by the log burner enjoying the garden views, this space works magic.

There is plenty of light in the space, particularly with the twin opening skylights in the extension part to the rear, the bi-fold doors to the garden and the wooden bi-fold doors opening out into the kitchen/diner which means you can open this ground floor area out completely linking all key rooms.

The key room in any family house is the kitchen area, the heart of the home. This space works amazingly well, particularly having the extension which matches the living room.

LANDSCAPED GARDENS

Another key feature to this home is the beautifully landscaped rear garden. The garden is a great size and particularly private whilst being divided into several zones. Firstly, the large patio area which is accessed from the bi-fold doors from either the extended living room or kitchen, and also the side passageway from the utility. This is a great social area, plenty of room here for outdoor living furniture, outdoor dining and of course the obligatory barbecue.

The planted railway sleepers beds lead you down the garden with a separate zone to the one side where the current owners keep their spa, surrounded by plants for seclusion and even more patio area. Fr the kids and family dog to play there's a good sized lawn area surrounded by planted areas and shrubs.

We love how the garden and the main house link together through the bi-fold doors, again, on those nice summer days works really well for entertaining and opening up the house linking the outdoor space. The garden has a number of lights that steer you around the sleeper beds there is also drainage, and access along the side of the property to lead you to the utility and through to the front driveway.
