Description - This very bright, south-facing and energy-efficient (C-rated EPC) detached house was built, we understand, circa 1973 and has been a much-loved home to our client for over a decade, during which time it has seen considerable improvement and alteration. Remodelled and extended in previous years, the highly adaptable and well-proportioned accommodation provides up to five bedrooms, three bathrooms, three generous reception rooms, a conservatory and useful ancillary space, appealing to large and active families or those requiring home office or hobby space, with additional potential to create an annexe for a dependent relative. Externally, the house is complemented by attractively planted gardens, an open rear aspect, plus a good-sized driveway and double garage. At the front, fine countryside and woodland views are available, particularly from the principal bedroom’s balcony. Overall, this is a superbly versatile and comfortable home offering quality and convenience in equal measure.

Accommodation - The house is accessed directly into a bright and welcoming reception hallway. On the ground floor are: a generously-sized principal sitting room with two front-facing picture windows, built-in cupboards, and an inset gas fireplace (not currently in use); a good-sized dining room/office with patio doors leading to the rear garden; a stylish, contemporary kitchen; a boot room/utility with granite worktops and space for an upright fridge-freezer; a privately positioned conservatory, leading out to the rear garden; two further versatile ground-floor rooms, one of which is currently set up as a snug/TV room, whilst the other is a bedroom, and; a fully-tiled shower room.

The kitchen is equipped with an excellent range of tasteful cupboards and cabinets, plus a matching island with granite worktops, incorporating a 1.5-bowl stainless steel sink and drainer. Integrated appliances include twin Neff multifunction ovens, a Falcon five-ring gas hob with extractor over, and a full-height fridge-freezer.

On the first floor are three further bedrooms and the generously sized family bathroom, complete with both a double walk-in shower enclosure and an oval bath. Of the bedrooms, the largest has a dual aspect and access to a sizeable balcony, enjoying the attractive views, whilst the second is served by a fully tiled en-suite shower room. Between the principal and third bedrooms is a further room offering further versatility as a potential study, dressing room, games room or en-suite, subject to any necessary consents.

Outside - To the front of the house is a tarmac driveway leading to the detached double garage, which has a remote-controlled up-and-over door, power and lighting, plus a timber tool and machinery shed. The front gardens are laid to lawn with well-stocked, colourful borders featuring azaleas, camellias and a Japanese acer, along with an apple and a pear tree. The rear garden is also laid to lawn and includes a paved patio beneath a timber pergola, adorned with clematis, a fruit and vegetable patch, a former chicken run and a 6'x8' greenhouse.
