Description

Lark Rise is a stunning Tudor-style detached family home that has been impeccably maintained throughout. Featuring four bedrooms, two reception rooms, and two bathrooms, this charming property is offered with no onward chain.

Situated in the popular residential area of South Knighton within a quiet cul-de-sac, we’re delighted to offer for sale this attractive Tudor-style detached property which has been a much-loved family home for more than forty years. With wood floors, double glazing and ample room for an extension, there are two reception rooms, a fitted kitchen and separate breakfast room, four bedrooms, a shower room and bathroom, a garage, off-road parking and a landscaped garden. The property is approached via a block-paved driveway to the covered porch and pretty stained glass front door with leaded light windows on either side. As you step into the bright and spacious entrance hall, the stairs to the first floor are on the right-hand side. To the left is the dining room which overlooks the front garden. Adjacent is the double-aspect living room with a stained glass window, an older-style open fireplace with a tiled hearth and surround, and French doors onto the terrace. At the end of the hall is a charming breakfast room with a quarry tiled floor, ceiling-high storage cupboards along one wall and lovely views over the garden. To the right through an archway is the fitted kitchen which has a range of wall, base and drawer units with composite work surfaces and part-tiled walls above. Beneath the window is a one-and-a-half bowl enamel sink with a mixer tap. There is an integrated double oven, halogen hob and extractor hood above. There is also space for a washing machine and tumble dryer, while a part-glazed door takes you into the side access. Off the kitchen is a fully tiled shower room with a low-level WC, a wash hand basin set into a vanity unit with cupboards below and a corner shower cubicle with a curved glass door. From the entrance hall, the carpeted turned staircase with wood panelling and facing window lighting up the large first-floor landing comprising airing cupboard and access to the part-boarded loft, and leading onto four double bedrooms, the family bathroom,. All the bedrooms benefit from fitted wardrobes and plenty of storage space. The part-tiled family bathroom is a great size with a white suite comprising a panelled bath with a central mixer tap and hand shower, a low-level WC, separate shower cubicle, awash hand basin sitting centrally in a long vanity unit with ample storage space below, a wall-mounted bathroom cabinet and two tall heated ladder towel rails. A particular feature of this delightful family property, offering plenty of scope for refurbishment and extension, is its charming front and rear gardens. At the front of the property, a block-paved driveway provides off-road parking for two cars, with well-established shrubs and trees to the left, and leading to the integral garage with an up-and-over door, which also houses the water tank and boiler.

To the right of the house is a brick archway, with a decorative iron pedestrian gate, which opens into the side access and leads to the rear garden. Immediately at the back of the house is an expansive L-shaped paved terrace with steps down onto the manicured lawn, surrounded by an array of shrubs and plants, which is bordered by wood fence panels and mature hedging. A central paved pathway guides you down the garden, through an exquisite wooden arch, with a climbing rose over and an established rose garden to the right, filled with various rose bush types
