A generous and stylishly presented detached family house in the St. John's area, ideally placed for the nearby grammar schools, travel links and amenities of the town.
Constructed in the 1930s, 202 St. John's Road has been extended and updated by our clients to create a generous, attractive house and a stylish, comfortable family home within. The house enjoys well-proportioned rooms and a high standard of presentation throughout.
On entering, the light-filled reception hall leads to a welcoming formal sitting room, with attractive bay window and feature fireplace. The rear of the house enjoys a superb open plan space incorporating a kitchen/breakfast area, dining and seating area, with sliding glazed doors opening onto the decked terrace and garden beyond.
The modern, sleek fitted kitchen enjoys a range of integrated appliances with fitted wall and base units providing good storage with breakfast bar providing great preparation space and room for more informal dining. There is an adjoining utility room with direct access to the garden, with space for further white goods and appliances. There is also access to the very useful ground floor shower room and WC.
There is a further reception room on the ground floor lending itself to any number of uses, but used as our clients as a very comfortable and spacious study, ideal for today's working from home needs.
The first floor is home to the principal bedroom, with bay window to the front and a feature fireplace, there is a striking en suite bathroom and dressing room. There are three further bedrooms to the rear of the house enjoying views over the garden and neighbouring playing fields beyond, served by a separate family bathroom.
Outside - The good-sized, rear garden provides a good expanse of lawn, perfect for child's play. There is a large paved terrace, ideal for outdoor entertaining with a summer house to the rear of the garden. The property is approached over a driveway providing off-street parking for several cars.

I love the combination of the bold colour palette, the family-friendly layout, lots of natural light and the super kitchen extension here, which all come together to create a welcoming and striking family home. Surrounded by an abundance of schools, the location is the cherry on top!
