Elgarth Drive, Finchampstead

Balanced, bright & beautiful ~ this spacious detached home offers a stylish open plan kitchen, impressive room sizes, and plenty of natural light throughout.

With two separate driveways, wrap-around lawns & secluded garden, this home is smartly presented, and ready to move in to...

The downstairs layout is well-planned for growing families, with excellent space for daily life & family gatherings, a versatile downstairs bathroom / shower, and dedicated study for remote working.

The tasteful kitchen / dining room is a modern classic with its cream stone flooring, natural timber worktops and curved corner cabinetry. Extra touches, which include a Belfast sink, wine rack, and breakfast bar for two, mean this space functions perfectly and looks fabulous too. With the adjoining open dining space, there's plenty of light from three sets of French doors (bringing light and a green outlook into every mealtime). The kitchen is fitted with good storage and integrated appliances; including eye-level oven, microwave, and dishwasher - with plenty of prepping work surface too.

To the side of the kitchen, there's a light and airy utility / laundry room - with easy access to the garden through French doors, and separate access to the garage store - ideal for dealing with everyday 'stuff' and, with automated doors opening on to the side driveway, this creates a very useful 'mucky' entrance after dog walks or sports matches.

The living room is an exceptional space with impressive proportions, matched with a large bay window. There's ample space for the largest of sofas but, with its perfect ratio of width to length, this room feels both spacious and homely. For good measure, there's a second window to the side, so this room has ample warmth and light in the summer, and winter cosiness and focal point with its handsome fireplace with gas stove.

There's a purpose designed study, and the downstairs bathroom is an ideal option for those with limited mobility (and also useful for a freshen up after a hard day's gardening or muddy weekend sports).

Upstairs offers a family bathroom and four very decent-sized bedrooms (with fitted wardrobe in bedrooms two and three).

With a gated rear driveway (ideal for caravans etc), gable porch, and scope to extend in the future, this home has all the hallmarks of a lovely home which can cope with a growing family.

A Few Words from Quarters

"Some homes just have a 'feel' and this one is no exception - there's kerb appeal from both driveways, and the feeling continues when stepping inside the front door. The classic front door and tasteful herringbone flooring in the entrance hall give a clue to the calm and restful décor throughout this unique home.

Sitting on a corner plot with Nash Grove Lane, this home enjoys plenty of 'elbow room' with no encroaching neighbours, and has both good natural light levels, and a high degree of seclusion.
