benefiting from A substantial rear garden and A large driveway.
Thoughtfully - presented throughout, this expansive family home measures almost
2, 000 sqft/182. 7m2 and offers an incredibly versatile accommodation. With a
westerly aspect this delightful property enjoys full advantage of the sun
throughout the day.
Classically arranged over two floors, a considerable ground floor living area
briefly consists of a large lounge, a fully fitted kitchen, utility room and
breakfasting area, a dining room, and a home office. There is an excellent

sized family bathroom features a shower and freestanding bath tub. To the rear
of the property is a sizable tiered garden, with two patio areas and a
generous lawn. A spacious private driveway is located to the front of the

sits neatly behind a curved gravel driveway, several planters feature a
variety of mature plants and shrubs. A pleasingly symmetric frontage centres
around a striking powder blue door with a stained - glass window.
A nifty porch welcomes you in to this considerable home and presents a handy
place to remove outdoor shoes and coats leading conveniently on to a ground
floor cloak room. The spacious central hallway is neutrally decorated in white
tones carrying light through and allowing access to all ground floor rooms.
Under stair storage provides further room for secreting away everyday
essentials. Leading directly off the entrance hallway, a series of reception
rooms encompass the entire the depth of the property with large windows
flooding the rooms with light. To the front, a large lounge/dining room
centres on a homely fireplace with a square fronted bay window making for a
beautifully bright space to relax. To the rear is the living room, the room is
a fantastic size, boasts a charming feature fireplace and double doors that
lead directly to the garden. The kitchen is set adjacent and features a modern
shaker style design. There is a wealth of base and wall - mounted units
including a central island and additional space for breakfasting. The room
follows onto a large utility room with matching cabinets. An adjoining study
offers an idyllic addition for those continuing to work from home.
Upstairs
The staircase runs up from the entrance hall and gives access to all first -
floor rooms from the landing. There are four double bedrooms on the first -
floor, the main suite benefits from an en - suite bathroom with walk - in shower
and an abundance of built - in cupboard space. A further amply - sized bathroom is
cleverly positioned between the other bedrooms and again features both shower
and bath facilities.
Outside
The garden can be accessed from the kitchen and the second reception room. The
space is arranged over two levels and has been thoughtfully landscaped to
accommodate a variety of uses; two patios are positioned at either end of the
garden with a central impeccably presented lawn connecting the two spaces.

kitchen. Mature and expertly tended plants, trees and shrubbery boarder the
garden creating a gorgeous surround and adding an excellent sense of privacy.
