Description
Constructed circa. 1930 and cherished by the same family since 1968, this charming and fashionably designed residence of the era sits centrally within a generous plot, surrounded by mature lawns and established planting. The home retains a wealth of original character features and balanced proportions throughout. An entrance vestibule with WC leads to a welcoming reception hall. The lounge features a curved bay window with elevated garden views, a Purbeck stone fireplace with open fire and direct access outside. The dining room continues the period feel with its own fireplace and original serving hatch to the breakfast room, while a separate study / playroom offers flexible space. The breakfast room, part of a later extension, centres around a log burner and retains an original full-height fitted cupboard, flowing into the kitchen with garden views and adjoining utility. A rear lobby / boot room with garden WC provides practical access.
Upstairs, four double bedrooms each display individual charm. The principal bedroom benefits from a large bay window and ensuite shower room, with a family bath / shower room serving the remaining bedrooms.
A sweeping in-and-out driveway leads to a double garage with separate access to a games room / home office. The mature gardens include lawns, including an area perfect for a tennis court (subject to consent), vegetable beds and fruit cage, a greenhouse and a wendy house.
