About this property

  • An excellent contemporary family home, located in this quiet close of a handful of residential homes, with flexible accommodation arranged over two floors. The living area is light and airy, being on the first floor whilst the bedroom accommodation is mostly on the lower floor.
    Steps lead up to the front door which then opens into a spacious hallway, off which are the main reception rooms. The 20' sitting room features a wood-burning stove, and leads into a study to the front and a most attractive dining area which is fully double glazed with bi-fold doors opening out onto raised decking and views over the garden. The kitchen/breakfast room is fully fitted and offers ample space for family dining. The principal bedroom with a sizeable en suite with bath and shower is also on this floor together with the sixth bedroom (which could also serve as a second office).

    On the lower floor there are four further bedrooms, one en suite, plus a family bathroom. Bedroom three could also be used as a family room with French doors to the patio. There is also a useful laundry/utility room and a store room. There is a separate downstairs entrance from the driveway.

    OUTSIDE

    To the front of the house a wide pathway and steps lead to the front door, which is flanked on both sides by an area of lawn. To the side is generous driveway parking (for up to eight cars) in front of what was formerly the double garage but which has now been converted into a gym.

    The first floor dining room opens into an elevated decking area, from which there are views over the garden which is predominantly laid to lawn, bordered by various shrubs and trees. Much has been made of the outbuildings, one of which is a cabin which has been cleverly made into a bar area, the perfect place for entertaining friends. A further shed has been fitted with a useful WC and shower, convenient for evening in the bar.

I think the family accommodation is excellent, with the reception rooms on the first floor affording a lovely outlook over the garden.
