6 Bed Detached House For Sale

An attractive and beautifully presented detached house on a very popular road, close to good local schools and with easy access to the station and city centre. The property has been extended and refurbished to an extremely high standard by the current owners employing careful attention to detail and high-quality fixtures and fittings. The well-planned design maximises light and space with clean lines and a contemporary feel.

On the ground floor the inviting entrance hall is laid with attractive Amtico flooring which flows throughout the ground floor. The spacious sitting room lies to the front of the house with a working fireplace and large window to the front. Adjacent to this is an additional reception room, currently used as a gym but could equally be an office, playroom or den. The heart of this lovely home is the striking, open-plan kitchen/dining/family room which stretches right across the rear and provides a sense of being very closely tied to the patio and garden beyond. The modern fitted kitchen has vast amounts of storage and many integrated appliances including dishwasher, electric oven, combi microwave oven, wine cooler, filter tap, gas hob and extractor. The room also provides generous living and dining areas while French doors and wide bifold doors lead out to the rear garden. Internal access can be gained to the integral garage from the family room. A large understairs storage area, downstairs WC and utility area provide for practical needs.

On the first floor there are four generous double bedrooms which radiate from the impressive light filled landing. The master bedroom is an excellent size with its own dressing room with contemporary built-in wardrobes and a large, modern en-suite bathroom with both bath and separate shower cubicle. The remaining three bedrooms are all well proportioned and share a stylish family bathroom with bath and separate shower. Stairs rise to the second floor where there are a further two very generous bedrooms. Both rooms are lovely and bright courtesy of Velux windows and provide a good deal of further storage courtesy of plenty of eaves cupboards.

Outside, to the front of the property, the block-paved driveway provides plenty of off-road parking in front of the garage and is nicely enclosed by mature hedges. There is side access to the private, sunny, south-west facing rear garden, with a good size patio area immediately adjacent to the house and the majority of the garden laid to lawn, with a further seating area towards the rear. Trees, hedging and fencing provide a good degree of privacy with specimen trees including olive and hazelnut, and there is a greenhouse and vegetable patch for the keen gardener. A store with power provides a useful home for a lawnmower and other garden tools or furniture.
