Quarlton Drive, Hawkshaw

In the heart of Hawkshaw, just a short stroll from the local primary school and village pub, on the cusp of sprawling countryside, family living awaits at Quarlton Drive.

Block paving offers ample parking for three cars on the driveway of this peaceful, quiet residential cul-de-sac. A light and bright porch, tiled in elegantly patterned black and white and furnished with a fitted built-in seat provides both storage and perching space for the doffing and donning of coats and boots.

A partially glazed inner door invites light through to the entrance hallway beyond, where carpet flows along, and up the stairs leading to the first-floor landing.

The fresh, neutral décor and natural light - both motifs throughout the home - serve to amplify the sense of airy spaciousness that can be felt in every room.

Immediately on the left, the open plan lounge and dining room are awash with light from windows to the front and rear. A sophisticated and serene palette of soft greys and white adds a peaceful ambience, whilst the multi fuel stove, nestled beneath an oak mantel infuses warmth.

Relax and unwind in the lounge at the front and dine at the large table to the rear, where light floods through the patio doors and opens to the south facing garden, inviting the prospect of alfresco mealtimes in the warmer summer months.

Wrapping around to the right at the rear, the dining area opens out into a versatile area, ideal as a playroom or zoned off snug, again with verdant views out over the garden at the rear.

Opening up from here, step through into the warmth and light of the sun room, a sunny south facing, self-contained room perfect for use as a playroom, reading area or home office, framing views out over the garden to three sides.

Turning left out of the sun room, step through into the kitchen, where quality Karndean flooring flows out underfoot, and where dove grey cabinetry provides plenty of storage for culinary essentials and utensils. Sense the high-quality finish of this home in the deep Belfast sink, grooved drainage within the quartz worktops and fitted appliances which include a dishwasher, bin storage, induction hob and oven, microwave and fridge freezer.

Back in the entrance hallway, beneath the stairs discover a stylishly wallpapered cloakroom with wash basin and WC, alongside access into the former garage, now a substantially sized utility room and gym. Formerly used as a craft room, this space could also serve as an extra, accessible bedroom.

Natural light greets you at every turn, both downstairs and upstairs, where carpeted stairs lead to the landing.

Turning left, make your way to the fourth bedroom, served by built-in wardrobes and offering views out over the front towards Holcombe Hill. This bedroom currently serves as a home office.

Sharing in the peaceful views out towards Holcombe Hill, a second guest bedroom features to the front offering plenty of room for a super king size bed alongside fitted wardrobes which provide plenty of storage. Calming, neutral shades pervade throughout the home, for a laid back, soothing feel.

Overlooking the garden and characterful stone cottages beyond, bedroom three, another comfortable double, is situated to the rear of the home and again features plenty of built-in storage.

Refreshment can be found in the family bathroom, part panelled to the walls with feature sage green and cream geometric wallpaper. Spacious and bright, a traditional style wash basin and WC accompany the built-in bathtub, perfect for a leisurely soak and served by a separate shower.

Across the landing, the principal bedroom enjoys its own sense of privacy and prestige. With space for a king size bed and bedside tables, fitted wardrobes provide plenty of storage to the front, where light flows in from windows to both sides.

From the landing, access a boarded-out loft from a drop down staircase. The loft has been carpeted, plastered with sockets and lighting and two skylights which provides an amazing additional, easily accessed storage space that has recently been used as a home office.

Outside, soak up the sunshine on the decking, with an area of lawn also available for children or pets to play.
