_The_ _property_ A contemporary and beautifully presented late 20th century
Georgian style family home set in the heart of St Cross, with secluded
westerly facing rear garden and with the benefit of a garage and ample
additional parking.
True North House is approached by a brick paved driveway leading to the
property itself which is an attractive red brick house off set beautifully by
light stone architraving, leading to the front door and garaging attractively
painted in a soft navy blue. The front door opens into a bright and welcoming
hallway, where the front door has panels of glass to either side, flooding the
hall with light. This leads to an internal door to the garage, and through to
the snug/study with cloakroom and 5th bedroom. Whilst useful it is current
layout, these rooms are versatile and could be ideal for a family annexe,
teenage den or home office, if required.
A wide staircase leads to the spacious first floor landing where there is a
further cloakroom, and door leading through to the kitchen/dining/family room
of over 23'. This is clearly the hub of the home and features a range of hand
painted kitchen cabinetry with under pelmet lighting, a Rangemaster cooker,
and ample room for a large family dining table. There are French windows
leading to the garden terrace, and a door leading into the utility room, where
there is also further storage.
The sitting room is a tranquil room, beautifully bright with two large windows
overlooking the front of the property. It is painted in soft cream, and
features a gas effect fire inset within a limestone fireplace, with shelving
and cupboards built in to either side of the chimney breast.
Upstairs to the second floor where there is the principal bedroom, beautifully
bright courtesy of large windows to the front of the property offering
enviable far reaching views to St Catherine's Hill. This has been beautifully
fitted with a range of wardrobes and leads into a contemporary ensuite shower
room, recently refitted by the current owners. There are three further
bedrooms on this floor, and a beautifully designed family bathroom comprising
cast iron roll top bath, and walk in shower cubicle, each benefitting from
illuminated inset shelving.
**The garden
**
The westerly facing garden is a particular joy of this property and has been
recently relandscaped by the current owners.
Four wide steps lead down from the French Windows in the kitchen to a deep
terrace paved with ceramic non - slip tiles, creating a wonderful space for
enjoying the sunshine and alfresco dining. From here a lawn leads through to a
further raised terrace under a charming pergola, creating a shaded area, with
power sockets installed for lighting and outside cooking areas. The garden is
fully enclosed by fencing, trellising and with a charming low brick wall to
the left hand side, with raised flower beds and borders. There is also gated
side access from the front driveway, where there is an electric car charging
point.
**The property
**
The origins of the name True North House for this property isn't known,
especially as it faces to the east at the front and to the west at the rear.
It is believed to have been built in the late 1990s and, whilst being modern
and contemporary, it was created with rooms of classical proportions and high
ceilings. The current owners have owned the house for the past four years and
have seen their role as being custodians of the property for future
generations, updating the kitchen, replacing the bathrooms, and landscaping
the garden.
