A Truly Exceptional Family Home with Self-Contained Annexe
Nestled within a highly desirable residential area, this outstanding property presents a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a beautifully upgraded home offering exceptional flexibility for modern family living. Ideally positioned within easy reach of local bus services, well-regarded schools, a children’s play area, and a Co-op convenience store, the location perfectly balances convenience with a peaceful community setting.
Set behind a gated driveway and framed by mature trees, the property enjoys a high degree of privacy and an impressive sense of arrival. Thoughtfully developed, the home now incorporates a self-contained ground floor annexe—perfect for accommodating a dependent family member of any age, guests, or even offering potential for independent living.
The annexe benefits from its own private entrance, as well as a connecting internal door to the main residence. Inside, you’ll find a generously proportioned lounge and a spacious double bedroom featuring double doors that open directly onto the rear garden, allowing for an abundance of natural light. The contemporary kitchen is smartly presented with gloss-finish cabinetry, wood-effect laminate worktops, and a breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include an oven/grill, microwave, hob with cooker hood, alongside space for a fridge/freezer. A convenient external door also provides direct garden access. Completing the annexe is a stylish shower room fitted with a sleek white suite, concealed cistern WC, vanity basin with storage, and a large shower enclosure.
The main house is equally impressive, accessed via a welcoming vestibule and hallway with open staircase. The dual-aspect lounge is bright and inviting, centred around an attractive feature fireplace with decorative tiled inset. The kitchen-diner offers extensive storage and generous work surfaces, complemented by decorative wall tiling, an integrated dishwasher, built-in microwave, and ample space for an American-style fridge freezer and range cooker. The adjoining dining area provides a wonderful setting for family meals, enhanced by open display shelving and an archway leading into a cosy family room. Here, a solid fuel stove creates a warm focal point, while double doors open onto decking in the side garden.
The outdoor space is equally impressive, featuring a large lawn, planted borders, and dedicated fruit and vegetable beds—ideal for those with green fingers or growing families. A summerhouse and garden tool store further enhance the practicality and charm of the garden.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with five well-proportioned double bedrooms, one benefitting from an archway leading into a dressing room. The beautifully appointed family bathroom features a luxurious four-piece suite including an oval bath, WC, basin, and a generous shower with dual shower heads, all complemented by stylish metro tiling.
Additional features include a loft space with lighting, a convenient laundry cupboard on the landing, gas central heating, double glazing throughout, and the added benefit of two large solar PV arrays—helping to improve energy efficiency and reduce running costs.
