About this property

  • This beautifully presented and charming double fronted period home is set behind an attractive brick wall, with iron railings and gate, all of which provides a good deal of privacy.

    The current owners have skillfully blended the existing period features with contemporary additions which has resulted in a stunning family home.

    You are welcomed into the hallway where you can access all of the principal accommodation. The formal reception room to the front benefits from a large bay window with half plantation shutters and a feature fireplace. This room also has attractive wooden herringbone floor, dado rail, picture rail and coving.

    Opposite is the sitting room which also enjoys a deep bay window, half plantation shutters and built in cupboard and shelving.

    In the heart of the home is the impressive kitchen/breakfast room with traditional style green painted units, wooden worktops, integrated appliances and a central island/breakfast bar which houses a wine fridge and provides a breakfast bar. There is plenty of space for a dining table and seating area, ideal for both everyday use and formal entertaining. Two sets of wooden bi-folding doors sit on either side of the kitchen providing direct access to the rear garden and to a smaller courtyard garden.

    A useful utility room with cloakroom is located off the kitchen and leads through to a light-filled study.

    Adjacent to this, separated by a modern Crittal style partition, is a guest bedroom/further office space with stylish en suite shower room.

    The first floor includes the principal bedroom suite which boasts an en suite shower room. There are three further bedrooms sharing the use of the family bathroom which offers a free-standing bathtub, characterful tongue and groove wood panelling and ample storage cupboards.

    To the rear there is a very sociable garden with areas for both entertaining and relaxation, surrounded by an abundance of lush greenery which creates a calm and tranquil setting. There is a decked area for table and chairs directly behind the house as well as a fantastic sunken area perfect for outdoor parties. The garden benefits from a lawned area bordered by well-stocked flower beds with various zones to enjoy the sunshine throughout the day. The separate courtyard offers a more secluded space for quiet reflection.

    A mature wisteria clings to the front of the property creating a wonderful first impression along with the attractive front garden. There is off-street parking to the side of the property and a useful store provides a home for garden equipment and bikes.

This home is a real gem! The combination of period and contemporary features works incredibly well and the garden is just stunning - I love the sunken entertaining area!
