About this property

  • 12 By Sunte was built in the 1960s and acquired by the current owners in 2009; it was subsequently significantly extended, with a two-storey extension to the front and single-storey extension at the rear, creating a wonderful home which offers light, well-presented accommodation arranged over two floors.

    The property is ideally suited to family life, with a versatile layout offering plenty of space for relaxing, for working from home and for entertaining. The sitting room has a large window to the front, and a fully glazed partition set with double doors opening to the playroom, a bright room which could be used as study or further reception room if needed. The open plan kitchen/dining room is an excellent space and the hub of day- to-day family life; the dining area has bi-fold doors opening to the south-facing patio and creating a seamless flow between inside and out. The kitchen is fitted with an excellent range of gloss white wall hung and undercounter cabinets, with solid oak surfaces; the central island has a breakfast bar and a prep sink, with a second sink to the side. Appliances include a Rangemaster stove, a microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. Lying off the hallway is an office and a cloakroom, and there are two understairs storage cupboards.

    On the first floor, the principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower. The second bedroom has fitted wardrobes and a pair of glazed doors to the Juliet balcony; there are two further bedrooms and a modern family bathroom with contemporary fittings.

    Outside, the house is set behind hedging to the front, with a wide brick paved driveway offering parking ahead of the house and integrated garage. The former garage has an up and over door, and has been fitted with a good range of storage to create a workshop. The side gate leads to a covered walkway giving access to the garage, the kitchen and on to the fully enclosed rear garden. A wide stone patio offers plenty of space for garden furniture, and an expanse of levelled lawn with established shrubs at the border. A flagstone path leads to a gate at the far end, which opens to the stream; a bridge leads to patch of wild garden with mature trees creating an effective screen at the rear. There are two timber sheds for garden storage.
