Located to the north of Shankill, Kentfield is an exclusive estate that consists of fourteen detached family homes which were developed in the late 90's. Rewarded with privacy to the front and rear and brought to the market in good order, No. 10 is a substantial double fronted four-bedroom residence which is enhanced with an attic room, rear extension, and a fabulous, landscaped rear garden.

Internally there is a pleasant atmosphere, and each room in this B rated home is of a generous size. Measuring 198 sq. m / 2,131sq. ft approx. in total, the layout is scheduled over three levels to include the attic room and there is a superb balance between living and bedroom accommodation. Beyond the attractive redbrick façade, reception rooms sit either side of the welcoming entrance hall which comprises hardwood flooring, ceiling coving, and a W.C beneath the stairs. The bay windowed formal living room sits to the left of the hallway featuring carpeted flooring, ceiling coving, and an open fireplace. On the opposite side of the corridor the second reception room similarly includes carpeted flooring along with fitted cloaks storage and shelving and this room could act as a study or playroom if desired. The dual aspect kitchen is positioned to the rear of the property incorporating tiled flooring, recess lighting, a generous range of cabinetry, wooden countertops, and integrated appliances include a Belling gas oven and hob, dryer, washing machine, and dishwasher. An opening to the left leads through to the adjoining dining area and beyond, the extension blends naturally creating an open plan sitting dining room. This impressive room acts as the central gathering place and is tastefully designed with hardwood flooring, ceiling coving, vaulted ceiling, feature brick cladding wall, and a gas fire serves as the main focal point. From here, double doors open out to the inviting garden.

Upstairs, on the first floor, there are four bedrooms, three double and one single. The principal bedroom sits to the front containing a pretty bay window seat, carpeted flooring, built in wardrobes, and an en-suite shower room. Remaining to the front of the property, there is a second double bedroom with en-suite. To the rear there is third double bedroom including built in wardrobes, and adjacent to that is the single bedroom. Off the landing there is access to a family bathroom, and a second staircase rises to the attic room. Added c. 2002, the attic room is a wonderful addition, measuring 34 sq. m and providing versatile options. It is also worth noting that there is a shower room on this level.

Another asset to this fine home is the lavish outside space. On approach, a cobblelocked driveway provides secure off-street parking for 2 cars. Well stocked flower beds with an array of vibrant shrubs and mature planting flank the drive and dual side access leads through to the rear garden. Measuring 40ft in length, bordering a central lawn there are two patio spaces laid with outdoor tiles and decking, each strategically placed to take in the morning, afternoon, and evening sun.
