An exceptional family home situated in a quiet cul de sac opposite Royal Victoria Park.

Description

This impressive detached family home, in a quiet cul de sac, has been thoughtfully and significantly extended and modernised by the current owners, providing light and spacious accommodation arranged over two floors.

The home is ideal for family living, with a spacious and welcoming entrance hall that leads to the principal reception rooms. This includes a large family sitting and garden room with vaulted ceilings in places, a wood burner, and easy direct access to the garden via large bifold doors.

The hub of the home is the expansive kitchen-diner, which comprises a quality contemporary fitted kitchen including integrated appliances, as well as a large island unit. There is space for a family dining table and, once again, doors open out to the pretty landscaped gardens.

For those wanting to work from home, there is a study or home office, which enjoys open views and is accessed from the kitchen. For a growing family, the family room leading off the kitchen provides a safe and creative space. On a practical level, there is a utility room as well as a separate boot room, which are ideal for those who need additional space.

To the first floor is the principal bedroom, complete with an ennsuite bath and shower room, and extensive views over Victoria Park and the city beyond. In addition, there are three further double bedrooms, including a guest bedroom with an ensuite shower room, as well as a family bathroom. All of the bedrooms benefit from an open outlook and attractive views.

Outside

Approached from the cul de sac, electric gates lead into a driveway and parking area. This provides access to the ample double garage and workshop. The gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped and surround the home. There are level lawns, well stocked flowerbeds, and stylishly paved seating areas.

The gardens make the most of their surroundings, providing valuable family space as well as areas to relax and entertain. Immediately to the rear of the house is a paved terrace that runs across the width of the property and can be accessed from the principal reception rooms. This is ideal for evening drinks and al fresco dining.

On a practical level, there is a kitchen garden discreetly positioned in one corner at the front of the home, featuring raised vegetable beds and a greenhouse. Safely enclosed and well planted, the gardens are a joy at any time of year.
