Let us begin the virtual tour....


APPROACH

The property is set back from the pavement edge, being L-shaped and having a double detached garage towards the front of the driveway with electric car hook-up and twin up and over vehicle access doors. The frontage is attractive, having a Tarmac drive and a planted garden area around the living room bay window, and on the opposite side with a block paved footpath leading to the storm porch and front door. There’s also a side gate to access around the rear of the property.


LIVING ACCOMMODATION

Welcome inside this gorgeous family home. The moment you step through into the hallway, you will appreciate the style, space, and the love that has been moulded into this stunning family home.

The property offers a traditional decor with a flow of hardwood doors with glass inserts which ensure plenty of natural light flows around the house. A nice feature in the hallway is the solid wooden floors and the winding staircase that invites you up to the bedrooms and bathrooms. The window that is positioned halfway up the stairwell scatters light both into the ground floor and upstairs. The hallway winds around the ground floor giving access to all the key rooms, and moves further around the corner to a downstairs cloakroom and study. There is also a handy understairs storage cupboard to hide away coats and shoes.

The family living room is a gorgeous room delivering plenty of floor space, ideal for a larger family and when socialising. This space can easily accommodates larger sofas, chairs and media centre, whilst also enjoying a feature gas, log-effect fire with an opulent surround that compliments the decor beautifully. The wooden engineered floors flow through the lounge space into the bay window to the front which offers a little more floor space. To the rear of the room are sliding patio doors that take you out onto the patio and garden. This is a lovely sociable space, working really well for the family, and also when entertaining friends or having a little jam with the piano.

This family home benefits from a separate dining room, which is an adaptable space, whether you choose to use as a formal dining space, or an additional sitting space for the younger members of the family to have their friends round. We love the feature bay window which delivers a picture-postcard view into the private rear garden, having French-style wooden glazed doors leading from the hallway to bring light in for dual aspects.

A key feature to this lovely home is the extended kitchen/dining/sitting area which is the focal room within this property. Extended in 2022 providing the perfect family/entertaining space with those desirable bi-fold doors linking the inside to the garden. It's simply stunning.

Firstly, the handcrafted kitchen that was designed, built and installed in by Choice Interiors. The homeowners are a dab hand at cooking so this kitchen has been carefully designed with culinary skills in mind to ensure all appliances, cupboards, spice draws etc are just where they should be. The kitchen units are built to a very high standard, old-school engineered and cleverly thought through. The kitchen is a traditional style in a pallet to match, having the benefit of a number of fitted appliances to include double Haier ovens with steam function and integrated microwave oven, all being controlled on an app, with built in recipes if you run short of ideas. A Haier electric induction hob and French plate with extractor hood above, and a family-focused full sized fridge and separate freezer with integrated ice machine and dishwasher.

Another great feature to the kitchen cabinetry, is a butler's pantry with folding doors, power sockets inside to hideaway items such as toasters and blenders. This kitchen is a pleasure to work with.

Moving rearwards from the kitchen in the extended part of the house, is the informal dining/breakfast/seating area. This sets this home apart from many others, and is just perfect for the modern lifestyle when you enjoy inside/outside living and entertaining. With feature Lantern skylight, additional window to the rear and those all-important bi-folding doors to the side which walk you out to the landscaped and private rear garden and patio. The Herringbone flooring just adds the final touches to this recently added space and with additional storage cupboards to the rear for storing away games and space for a TV. Plenty of space for dining table, cosy chairs or sofa here.

This area is really flexible, and the current owners move this around throughout the year for summer and winter, and really do live outside during those warmer months particularly when catering and relaxing. Even when sat inside, the garden provides a delightful setting, tranquil and private.

In addition to the kitchen, there is a separate utility space, which has useful storage cupboards, a sink and drainer, and also being home to the Worcester boiler, which is nicely tucked away and the electric consumer units. There is a further window to the side, and a handy storage cupboard for hiding away chargers and out-of-sight items. The utility even has the continuation of the herringbone floor that is in the kitchen area and central heating. The door to the side gives access to the garden and side passageway, great for taking the washing out or bringing home the muddy dog or kids.

Also off the hallway is the all-important downstairs WC, stylishly presented with toilet and pedestal hand wash basin, with frosted window to the side elevation and central heating.

The property comes with a study, which is set to the front of the house around the corner, which does give you some separation should you work from home, or this adaptable space could be a seating area, or perhaps a home gym/yoga area.


BEDROOMS & BATHROOMS

Welcome upstairs. The first feature that we love is the spacious landing with the gallery balustrade staircase winding from the hallway. A nice feature here is the window that sits halfway up the staircase, providing natural light into the stairwell. The landing and upstairs accommodation continues the stylish and period decor with contrasting darker carpets. There’s also an airing cupboard on the landing which is perfect for towels and also being home to the hot water cylinder and access into the loft space.

The principal bedroom is a nice surprise as you walk in, a really spacious bedroom, and boasting a semi-vaulted ceiling with a window to match the ceiling to give a nice period feel to the space, as well as having a further window to the front elevation, this is a lovely light space. This generous bedroom provides good floor space for your larger bed and plenty of surrounding additional furniture, as you will see on your tour and pictures, with good compliment of built-in wardrobes and benefiting from an en-suite. This is a great room.

The principal en-suite is modern, offering a white Roca suite comprising of WC with dual flush, a floating vanity cabinet with sink and mixer tap, an LED vanity mirror set beyond, as well as a single sized shower being mains-fed complimented by a glass shower door. The en-suite offers tasteful tiling, contrasting around the wet areas, as well as having a shaver point, a good shelf for toiletries and a ladder radiator.

The second bedroom is located at the rear house, enjoying the view into the private rear garden via a large double glazed window having the benefit of fitted blinds. This is a nice sized double room, delivering plenty of floor space, stylish in its colour palette, with easy to manage laminate beech-style flooring, and having the benefits of a double built-in wardrobe, which leaves the floor space for your bed, additional storage and for the younger members to have their homework or gaming desk.

The third bedroom is also located at the rear of the house to take in the garden view, and also has the benefit of built-in wardrobes. Again, this room is stylish with a seaside palette, offering laminate flooring for ease of cleaning, and delivering good floor area.

Bedroom number four, maybe the smallest of the bedrooms, however is a flexible space. It would, if needed accommodate a double sized bed, but really is a large single or ideal as a home office, although the property does have a space on the ground floor. This bedroom also has a single sized built-in wardrobe and double glazed window to the front.

The family bathroom is in-keeping with the en-suite, super-stylish and modern. The bathroom is located in the centre of the house, which is perfect for easy reach from all the other bedrooms. The bathroom offers a deep and wide bath with a mains-fed shower set above and complimented by a glass shower screen, a white hi-gloss floating vanity unit with two deep drawers, sink with mixer tap, and a WC. The tiles are similar to the en-suite being neutral with contrasting tiles around the bath and sink areas and light tiles to the flooring. There is a opaque opening window to the rear elevation, as well as a ladder radiator for your towels.


OUTSIDE SPACES

The property offers a landscaped driveway with planting beds to break up the driveway. However, the rear garden is what we need to tell you about. You can see from the photos how beautifully landscaped it is, with a focus around outdoor living blending with the bi-folding doors to the extended kitchen/diner and the living room. If you enjoy the garden, outdoor dining, seating and socialising then this home is just for you. The large patio stretches across the rear of the house, perfect for large outdoor furniture; sofa, chair’s, table and dining set all camped out around a fire-pit perhaps toasting the marsh mellows, or preferably several chilled glasses of wine. With the rear of the house opening up onto this garden works really well for larger gatherings.

There is a further patio behind the extension tucked away for sun loungers, a good book and suncream.

There is access along the side of the house to reach the utility, and gate to front and some storage space to the opposite side.


DOUBLE GARAGE

The home benefits from a detached double sized garage, two, up and over vehicle access doors to the front of it, with a window to the side and personnel door which leads to the side passageway towards the rear garden and utility. There is power and lighting in the garage, which is great for additional fridge and freezers, and having some storage in the roof void.
