Stone Lane, Meldreth, Royston, Hertfordshire

Brookside has been dramatically extended by the present owner and now offers five bedrooms arranged over two floors. A welcoming reception area has a tiled floor, inset ceiling lighting, a decorative fireplace, integrated storage and has stairs to the first floor. Of note to the ground floor is the spacious open plan kitchen/breakfast room fitted with a range of cabinets finished with granite and wooden surfaces, integrated appliances, a large island/breakfast bar and a vaulted ceiling with Velux windows. A utility room houses the laundry facilities and there is also a pantry and boot room. To the rear, an orangery provided perfect space for entertaining with views across the garden and side doors for access. The remainder of the ground floor accommodation comprises a living room facing the front aspect, a large office and ground floor wc. The principal bedroom is located on the ground floor and includes a generous dressing room and large en suite bathroom. The first floor offers 4/5 further bedrooms, a dressing room and family bathroom.

The grounds of Brookside extend to 0.37 acres. To the rear a large expanse of lawn is enclosed with garden fencing and adjacent to the house is a covered terrace. The garden is south-east facing, so you get all day sun along with beautiful sunrises. Within the garden is a timber outbuilding and beyond the garden are views across farmland. The front aspect is approached via the drive which is part of the title to Brookside and has a gravel drive. Across from the drive is a further area of garden presently rewilded, but which could offer further domestic opportunities, subject to planning consent.
