Introduction & Exterior

This remarkable detached home in Polesworth, within walking distance of the village centre, will prove extremely popular to families seeking a home with lots of reception space, all double bedrooms and a generous garden, that is fabulously presented both inside and out.

The property is positioned at the beginning of Drayton Court, set back from High Street behind a well-kept front lawn with attractive plants to the borders, and a block paved double-width driveway. A slabbed path leads from the driveway to the composite main entrance door, and continues to the left of the house to lead to a secure side gate.  

The gate accesses a terrific large garden that comprises of a slabbed patio, lawn, raised decking with pergola and areas of gravel. There is a large wooden storage shed that has a further secluded area of the garden behind. Lots of attractive shrubs of various colours are dotted around the borders with sleepers, stepping stones and more coloured gravel framing the lawn. The garden is kept private by tall wooden fencing and brick wall to the boundaries.

Ground Floor

Guests enter the home to discover an impressive, long hallway that has ample space for removing coats and shoes. The hallway is wide enough to position a sideboard if desired. From here there are doors leading off to two reception rooms, the outstanding open plan kitchen and a guest WC with wash basin. At the far end, the hallway continues to the right where the winding staircase rises to the gallery landing, and a door opens to a long storage cupboard underneath.

Arguably the best room in the house is the open plan kitchen. The main focal point, particularly on a beautiful day, is a set of stunning bi-folding doors that open to the rear garden. When entertaining guests, this brings to the decking area to serve as another reception area. Inside of the doors is a vast area for a sofa suite to be positioned (or dining table if desired). The current owners use this as a family area as most of their time is spent in this room.

To the left of the room is a stylish kitchen suite that is fitted along the left and rear walls, and a has a protruding section at the front that provides a breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, four-burner gas hob with overhead extractor, electric oven, and a fridge freezer. A one-and-a-half-bowl sink with drainer is sunken into the surface in front of a window that peers out to the garden. At the front of the kitchen is a door accessing a matching utility room that has plumbing for a washing machine and further space for a tumble dryer. The central heating combi-boiler is concealed within the utility room units, and an exit door opens to the side passage.

Either side of the hallway are two additional reception rooms that are used as a lounge and an office / sitting room. All windows are double-glazed throughout the home.  

First Floor

The gallery landing is naturally well lit by a window midway up the stairwell before the long floor area which has doors leading off to all bedrooms and the family bathroom. Above the landing is a hatch to a sizeable and well-insulated loft space.

As mentioned above, all four bedrooms are exceptional double rooms. The master bedroom is positioned at the front left of the house and includes access to its own en suite. The en suite comprises of a corner shower cubicle, toilet and pedestal wash basin, with a heated towel rail positioned behind the door.

The family bathroom is even more impressive as it includes a wonderful large bathtub with central mixer tap, and a shower fitted above. The remaining suite comprises of a wall-mounted wash basin and drawer unit, towel radiator and a toilet. As with the en suite, the bathroom is complemented by appealing wall tiling to the splash back areas.
