Tutts Clump, Berkshire

West End House is an attractive detached period family home, sensitively modernised and extended by the current owners to provide almost 2,400 sq ft of light-filled flexible accommodation arranged over two floors.
The accommodation flows from a gable end porch with log store and a welcoming reception room with feature fireplace and bespoke shelving. It comprises a generous front aspect sitting room with window seating and a fireplace with woodburning stove flanked by bespoke storage and an inter-connecting part-panelled dining room with a bay window with window seating, bespoke storage and a door to a neighbouring family room with tiled flooring. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a spacious kitchen, thoughtfully extended by the current owners. It features a range of custom-built wall and base units, including a large central island with a bespoke breakfast bar, complemented by stylish work surfaces and splashbacks. Modern integrated appliances, including a wine chiller, enhance the space, while French doors open to the side aspect. Large bifold doors open onto the rear terrace, while a vaulted sky lantern floods the space with natural light. A door leads to an additional hallway with a useful fitted cloakroom, which connects to a well-appointed utility room with garden access, also accessible from the family room.
Stairs rise from the central inner hall to the first floor, which provides a dual aspect principal bedroom with en suite shower room and three further double bedrooms, one with feature fireplace, fitted storage and contemporary en suite shower room. A part wood-lined family bathroom with freestanding slipper bath and separate shower cubicle completes the facilities.

Set behind mature hedging the property is approached over a shingle driveway providing private parking and giving access to a detached double garage. The garage has approved planning permission to be extended and be re-built with a pitched studio room above. To the right of the house is a second private driveway for two vehicles. The generous enclosed garden to the rear of the property is laid mainly to lawn bordered by well-stocked flower and shrub beds and features a detached Norwegian log cabin with French doors to the garden, a workshop, a high-end greenhouse and a generous paved terrace off the kitchen, ideal for entertaining and outdoor dining. The very bottom of the garden descends gently down to a wooded dell backing onto estate woodland which is securely fenced. An amazing and fun space for children.
