About this property

  • 1 Oldfield Drive is an attractive and very well-presented modern family home, built by CALA Homes in 2016 and set in a select gated development.

    The house is attractively characterised in a traditional style with a red brick double-fronted façade with twin bays, internally with points of note including stylish bathroom suites, neutral décor throughout, double glazed timber-framed windows, high ceilings, recessed spot lighting in many rooms, and walnut doors with chrome door furniture.

    The spacious and well-proportioned accommodation has been designed with modern family living in mind, arranged over three floors and extending to an impressive 3,093 square feet, the full extent and layout of which can be seen on the floor plan.

    The ground floor rooms lie off a spacious tiled entrance hall with built-in coats cupboard, large cloakroom and a turned staircase rising to the upper floors. There are three formal reception rooms: the dining room and the versatile study lie to the front of the house, both with bay windows; the elegant sitting room has French doors opening to the pergola and features an attractive limestone fireplace with inset woodburner.

    The kitchen and breakfast room is a generous room ideal for day-to-day family living, with ample space for a breakfast table and sofas, and French doors opening to the garden. It is fitted with a range of dark wood effect and cream handless units, complemented by quartz worktops and a range of Siemens integrated appliances, and is served by the adjacent utility room.

    The bespoke pergola is a later addition to the house, seamlessly linking the indoor and outdoor spaces and offering an ideal entertaining space with remote-controlled louvered roof, glass doors to three aspects opening to the terrace, and wall-mounted heaters.

    There are four bedrooms on the first floor, including the principal suite which comprises a bedroom with a well-fitted walk-in wardrobe, and a large en suite shower room with suite including a double shower cubicle and twin basins. Bedroom two has an en suite shower room; bedrooms three and four share a stylish family bathroom with suite including a bath and separate shower cubicle.

    Stairs rise to a large and versatile room on the second floor which has an en suite shower room and could be used as an alternative main suite, a generous guest bedroom, or second floor sitting room.

    Outside
    Number 1 is set in a gated area of Oldfield Drive with just six other properties. To the front of the house is a private driveway and detached double garage, and an area of lawned front garden with a central pathway leading to the front door.

    The mature and private west-facing rear garden has been re-landscaped to offer a part-paved, part-decked terrace next to the house, with plenty for space for an outside table and chairs. Steps rise to an area of level lawn, edged by timber sleepers with inset lighting and well-stocked flower and shrub borders.
