Description

59 Essex Road is an exceptionally well presented and beautifully proportioned detached modern family home in immaculate order throughout. Built for the current owners, the house has been cleverly designed to cater perfectly for modern family living with a wonderful open plan dining kitchen and living space forming the centrepiece of the house. The house is well orientated to benefit from plenty of natural light throughout the day with predominantly south, east and west elevations. With a full security and alarm system, CCTV, network cabling and Sonos throughout the house as well in the garden, as well as unusually generous proportions, the house benefits from superb family living and reception space, complemented by five generous double bedrooms, making this is a remarkable family home.

The front door opens to the welcoming and broad reception hall from where the principal living and reception room are accessed and the impressive stair rises to the upper floor. To the front of the house are the formal sitting room to one side of the hall, as well as the dining room to the other. The dining room interlinks with the impressive open plan breakfasting kitchen and living room. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with a sleek design ensuring it is a wonderful place to entertain as well as being practical for everyday family life. The living area is particularly generous in size and the room is incredibly bright with windows to the east and west, as well as sliding patio doors opening to the garden. To the rear of the kitchen is utility room as well as a shower room. Also to the rear of the house, with double doors opening to the garden, is the comfortable snug which is south facing.

The stair rises to the upper floor where the bedroom accommodation is situated. The principal bedroom benefits from a higher vaulted ceiling, enhancing the sense of space and light. It is a very comfortable room with a west facing balcony, a dressing room with built-in wardrobes and a luxurious en suite bath and shower room. There are four other generous double bedrooms on this floor. Two of the bedrooms have exclusive en suite bathrooms, while the other two bedrooms share a jack-and-jill en suite bathroom. All the bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and are bright and spacious. There is a floor loft above, and there are designs to put in an additional stair to create further accommodation by converting the loft if desired.

The grounds are a delight. The electric sliding security gate opens to the driveway with extensive parking for up to 10 cars and leading to the front door as well as to the detached double garage, which is large enough to park cars as well as have plenty of storage space. Here there is also an EV charging point. Above the garage is a studio accessed via a stair to the side of the garage. There is drainage and plumbing here enabling it to be used for a variety of different uses. The gardens have been beautifully landscaped with a large lawn area to the rear and side of the house, with a variety of mature plants and shrubs providing plenty of colour. To the side of the house is the recently constructed outdoor kitchen with in-built pizza over and fireplace, and a sitting area, with glass balustrading providing protection from any wind. It is wonderfully stylish and a superb space to entertain friends and family alike.

To the far end of the garden there is a gate opening to private steps leading to riverside and woodland walks by the River Almond, ideal for dog walking or a gentle and peaceful stroll.
