    About this property

    • An attractive and well-appointed five bedroom detached family home constructed of brick and rendered elevations, set within the highly regarded Forge Wood development. This particular property occupies an enviable position along Foxglove Drive, a tree lined road at the far end of the development, and is one of just four five bedroom houses built here.

      Purchased from new, the house has been finished to the highest available specification and has been meticulously maintained by the current owners. It offers thoughtfully arranged accommodation over three floors, combining modern efficiency with comfortable family living.

      The property is approached via a pathway leading through an attractive front garden enclosed by fencing. The entrance porch leads into the hallway, featuring ceramic tiled flooring, built in understairs storage and additional cupboards.
      The ground floor accommodation is both versatile and well proportioned. The double aspect sitting room is light and airy, providing an excellent everyday living space. A separate study or playroom overlooks the front, ideal for home working or family use. To the rear, the kitchen and dining room span the full width of the house, forming a superb open plan hub fitted with a stylish shaker style kitchen, complete with gas hob and electric double oven. The dining area benefits from doors opening onto the garden terrace, perfect for outdoor entertaining. A spacious cloakroom, which also houses the washing machine and dryer, completes this floor.

      On the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys views to the front and features a dressing area with fitted cupboards, along with a stylishly finished en suite shower room and decorative picture rail. Two further bedrooms, one with fitted wardrobes, are served by a family bathroom, while an airing cupboard provides additional storage.

      The second floor offers two further generous bedrooms, one currently arranged as a bedroom and the other as a study, with one benefiting from built in storage. A bathroom on this level completes the accommodation, making it ideal for guests or older children.

      The house benefits from double glazing throughout, zoned central heating across each floor, and a modern air filtration system designed to remove airborne pollutants and enhance internal air quality.

      The South facing rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with a flowering cherry tree and well stocked shrubs, complemented by a section of brick walling which provides a charming backdrop. A terrace adjoins the house, ideal for entertaining.

      To the front, a block paved driveway provides off street parking for four cars and includes an electric vehicle charging point. The double garage, with up and over doors, benefits from power and water supply, and the current owners have added a mezzanine floor, creating a particularly useful additional storage area.

      Overall, this is a superbly specified and beautifully presented family home in a desirable and well connected location.
