Location
Handsome family home on the popular and award winning Melton Park.
28 Garrod Approach is ideally situated, bordering ancient woodland and within the popular Melton Park, an exceptionally well-conceived and award winning development, which perfectly blends Georgian buildings with sympathetically designed contemporary houses. Garrod Approach is one of the most sought after and exclusive locations on Melton Park being wonderfully secluded with beautiful neo classical architecture and mature established landscaping.
Set back from the road and built in the classical Georgian style, 28 Garrod Approach is a handsome double fronted building with a red brick façade, dental cornicing and sash windows under a traditional pantile roof with dormers.
Internally, the accommodations flows exceptionally well, comprising wonderfully proportioned, light-filled rooms, with high ceilings throughout.
The front door, with light atop, is set within a doric portico and opens into a generous reception hall, which leads to the principal reception rooms, kitchen/breakfast room and cloakroom; stairs lead to the bedroom accommodation on the first and second floors.
The elegantly proportioned sitting room has a double aspect with sash windows overlooking the front and rear gardens, and an open red brick fireplace with oak bressumer and tiled hearth. Facing the sitting room is a double aspect dining room.
The spacious and attractive, triple aspect kitchen has granite work surfaces, a rangemaster oven, integrated dishwasher and fridge, double butler-style sink, hand built cabinetry and island. French windows lead out to the generous terrace.
There is a useful utility/laundry room off the kitchen with external access to the shingle drive and double garage with a side gate to the rear garden.
There are five double bedrooms and four bathrooms arranged over the first and second floors. The double aspect principal bedroom is particularly impressive, with windows to the south and west elevation, an adjoining bath and shower room, and dressing room with a significant number of built-in wardrobes.
28 Garrod Approach has beautiful gardens to the front and rear. The principal garden to the rear of the house has a delightful verdant lawn, with shrub and herbaceous borders, fruit trees, a terrace ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining, greenhouse and shed plus an outside tap. There is easy access on to a footpath that leads around Melton Park through the ancient Woodland.
A shingle drive leads to an extensive gated parking area and double garage; the double garage provides ample storage, power, lighting and pedestrian access.

Bordering ancient woodland and within one of the most sought-after locations in the popular Melton Park, 28 Garrod Approach is a superb and very handsome family home. I love the well proportioned accommodation and easy access to woodland footpaths.
