    About this property

    • Pinewood House is a substantial Edwardian house, believed to date from 1911. Pinewood House has classic features including partially tile hung and red brick elevations under a tiled roof, with a large bay to one side; it has the generous proportions typical of its period, with high ceilings, large windows, brass door furniture, wood flooring to much of the ground floor and some original decorative fireplaces still in situ on the first and second floors.

      Pinewood House offers spacious and versatile accommodation arranged over three floors; the floorplans give an excellent overview of the property and should be used as comprehensive guide to the full layout. On the ground floor, the reception hall has an elegant staircase with beautiful wooden banisters; to the left is the kitchen/breakfast room, well-equipped with a good range of fitted units complemented by granite worktops and a breakfast bar. Appliances include two Miele ovens and a Neff induction hob with extractor over.

      Across the hall, the sitting room lies to the front of the house and has a large bay window. The adjoining dining room has French doors to the rear garden, and at the rear of the house is a family room, with access to the boot room and the adjoining utility room. Two cloakrooms complete the ground floor.

      The elegant turned staircase sweeps up the first floor. The principal bedroom lies at the front of the house, and enjoys views over Muster Green, framed by the large bay window; the original cast iron fireplace has a beautifully tiled surround and creates a wonderful focal point. There are three further bedrooms on the first floor, one of which has French doors and is used as a study. The first floor bathroom has underfloor heating, marble tiling, an elegant slipper bath and a Lefroy Brooks basin and bidet. There is a separate WC.

      On the second floor are two further bedrooms, one with access to the eaves storage space; these are served by a contemporary shower room.

      The property is approached from Muster Green North via a pair of wrought iron gates with lighting, which open to the gravelled driveway, offering parking space for several vehicles ahead of house. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn, with beech hedging to one side; the rear garden is spacious and well-sheltered, bordered by beds panted with mature shrubs and trees and with a paved terrace adjoining the house.
