A delightful six bedroom house with a walled garden and a garage in the popular village of Holt.
16 and 17 Leigh Road is a delightful period home, wonderfully located in the centre of the popular village of Holt. Formerly two cottages now combined as one, the property offers wonderful lateral accommodation (totalling approx 2,960 sqft) across just two floors with a beautiful, secluded rear garden as well as a garage and off-street parking.
The ground floor provides a wealth of living accommodation including a sitting room, snug and study, which flow well across the front of the property, interlinking the former two houses. To the rear is a charming and generously sized dining room, with feature fireplace and beamed ceiling. The kitchen runs alongside the dining room, accessed from the entrance hall, with a breakfast bar opening between the two rooms. From here, access is provided to the utility room, which in turn leads out to the garden beyond. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a pantry, separate WC and a conservatory leading from the study which enjoys lovely views of the garden.
Upstairs the two original cottages have not been interlinked and are therefore arranged as two separate sections of bedrooms, serviced by the two original cottage staircases. The arrangement works particularly well, as one side provides two bedrooms and a bathroom, which works perfectly for guest accommodation. The other side of the house provides four generous bedrooms and a large family bathroom.
The property has been home to the current owners for over 40 years and has been a much-loved family home. Now in need of modernisation, the property is absolutely charming, with many of its original features still intact and the property brims with character.
Garden
The rear garden is a delight; walled on all sides and providing a peaceful and secluded setting. Largely laid to lawn, with mature trees on its edges, the garden is well cared for and adds great appeal to the property. A large patio, perfect for outdoor dining, is situated outside the conservatory, with a few steps up to the lawned garden. There are various areas to sit and enjoy the view throughout the garden, and a well stocked vegetable patch is situated at the rear. The garage is positioned around the corner along with a car parking space, which are both accessed from a private drive leading from Leigh Road.
