    About this property

    • 8 High Hurst Close is situated in one of the most desirable roads in the popular village of Newick. The house is understood to date from the 1960s, and is characterised in an attractive style with brick elevations under a tiled roof. The house offers approximately 2,142 sq ft of well-presented accommodation (including the garage), and has wood flooring to most of the ground floor. It offers a versatile layout which is ideally suited to family life.

      A solid wood front door under an overhanging porch opens to the spacious entrance hall. The sitting room is of particular note: a lovely, light and bright dual-aspect room featuring an elegant fireplace set with a woodburning stove, and French doors opening to the garden.

      Glazed double doors led from the hall to the kitchen/dining room, which is fitted with a range of farmhouse-style painted wood units with granite worktops, a Rangemaster stove with extractor over, space for appliances and a pantry; there is ample space for a central dining table. The adjoining study provides a useful space for home-working, or could be used as a family or play room, if required. A good-sized utility room and a cloakroom complete the ground floor.

      There are four well-proportioned bedrooms on the first floor, the principal suite has a bedroom with built-in wardrobes, a section of landing and a bathroom; there are three further bedrooms, two with built-in wardrobes, and a family bathroom with an electric shower over the bath.

      The house is set back behind hedging, with an in and out driveway providing ample space for parking. The attached garage is suitable for use as storage or a workshop, and has the potential to be converted (subject to obtaining the necessary permission).

      There is a terrace spanning the rear of the house, with space for garden furniture. The remainder of the fully-enclosed garden is mainly laid to lawn, with mature trees and shrubs at the boundary; towards the rear a gate leads to an enclosed kitchen garden with a raised bed. The grounds extend to in all approximately a quarter of an acre.
