About this property

  • This semi-detached property was constructed by Stonebond Properties in 2002 and has recently been the subject of a programme of enhancements including a highly appointed Shaker-style kitchen/family, a garden room extension, floor coverings and redecoration. In addition, the property benefits from additional parking at the rear, a detached double garage (part of which is converted to a gym) with a studio above.

    The accommodation is versatile and flows well. The entrance hall is finished with an attractive tiled floor and at the front of the property is a separate dining room or sitting room, finished with oak flooring. Beyond is a half-tiled ground floor cloakroom. The kitchen/family room (which extends to approximately 24 ft) has recently been refitted with a range of colour-washed, Shaker-style units topped with quartz anchored around a substantial island. This room is designed for family gatherings and entertaining and includes a variety of appliances including two integrated ovens, combi-microwave/oven, warming drawer, fridge/freezer, wine fridge, integrated hob and hot water tap. Adjacent is a utility room and at the end of the house is an addition to the original property, a garden room which opens from the kitchen with under-floor heating and access on to the rear gardens.

    On the first floor the living room is situated at the front of the property, finished with oak flooring and including a gas fire providing a focal point to the room. At the rear of the property overlooking the gardens is the principal bedroom suite, finished with oak flooring and including an extensive range of fitted furniture. A bespoke en suite shower room finished with mosaic tiling includes a rain-head shower, WC and wash basin.

    On the second floor are three further bedrooms, two shower rooms (one en suite) featuring Villeroy & Boch tiling.

    Please note that the majority of windows in the house are fitted with a range of bespoke shutters, made to measure, which are included within the guide price.

    Outside
    A gravel drive passes between a low brick wall into a parking area in front of the property. Additionally the drive spurs to the left to the rear of the property to a parking area for about three cars and in turn to the garaging.

    A side gate provides access to the rear garden, which has been laid to Astro turf extending to approximately 32 m in depth and towards the rear of the garden is an entertaining area with an eat-out kitchen, bar, barbecue and beyond an in-ground hot tub.

    Double garage
    This has been segregated to provide garaging and a gym. Additionally there is an external staircase to a studio room above the garage, which may well serve as a home office should the facility be required.

I love the versatility the house provides, and being within the city's conservation area provides a mixed street scene of both older and modern houses.
