4 Bedroom Detached House

Occupying approximately half an acre of level, private gardens, this handsome and substantial home offers generous, adaptable accommodation ideally suited to modern family life. Set well back from the road behind mature trees and established hedging, it makes an immediate impression. A distinctive Tudor-inspired gabled frontage frames a solid oak entrance door, while a generous driveway and double garage with electric door and useful overhead storage provide ample parking.

Inside, the layout strikes a perfect balance between open, sociable living and more intimate retreat spaces. A welcoming split-level entrance hall, complete with quarry-tiled flooring, oak doors and a characterful turning staircase, sets the scene. A spacious snug/study provides a comfortable and versatile reception room. As the property’s original sitting room, it offers a cosy atmosphere, featuring an Arts and Crafts fireplace and side access to the garden, as well as letting in an abundance of natural light.

At the centre of the home lies a superb open-plan kitchen, dining and family area; a wonderfully bright space enhanced by large windows and glazed doors that open onto the garden. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of units, integrated appliances and a central island, with additional space for a dining area neatly arranged to one side. Off from the kitchen sits an impressive, substantial sitting room with decorative feature fireplace, and patio doors opening to the rear garden. The gas-fired stove adds warmth and character, making this an inviting room, perfect for relaxed evenings or informal gatherings. Finally, a separate utility room and stylish ground floor WC add everyday practicality to this level.

Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms and three bathrooms provide comfortable and flexible family accommodation. The principal bedroom is a spacious double-aspect room with built-in wardrobes and a private shower room. A second bedroom also benefits from its own en suite, while the remaining bedrooms -one of which is particularly large with its own dressing area- share a generous family bathroom. A substantial loft offers further potential for conversion, subject to the necessary permissions.

The gardens are a true highlight. An expansive rear lawn extends beyond a wide patio terrace, ideal for outdoor dining and summer entertaining. Mature hedgerows provide privacy, while vegetable beds, a greenhouse and fruit trees will appeal to keen gardeners. A large shed at the end of the garden - supplied with mains electricity - provides fantastic additional storage space for outdoor equipment. Side access is available on both sides of the property. Altogether, this is a home with genuine character and flexibility, offering space, a striking frontage and excellent family living both inside and out.
