PROPERTY IN BRIEF
Ginger are delighted to offer this stunning four bedroom detached family house for sale in this popular and peaceful cul-de-sac location on the desirable Kemps Green estate. This lovely family home is set within an easy reach of the local schools, central to the village shops, and within walking distance to open countryside.
The property enjoys generous floor space on the ground floor having a welcoming hallway with cloakroom, a recently re-fitted and spacious kitchen/breakfast area and a large lounge/dining room that stretches across the rear of the house with west-facing garden views and bi-fold doors into the conservatory.
Upstairs, the property enjoys a large principal bedroom with modern en-suite with three further double bedrooms, plus a modern family bathroom with shower over bath.
The property has a generous driveway to the front with access into the garage, and to the rear a really peaceful and private west-facing rear garden and patio.
APPROACH
The property benefits from a comprehensive driveway to the front, which is block paved, and has also just been cleaned and re-sanded. There is a delightful boarder/ planting area to the side with gates to reach the garden on both sides, and a up and over door into the integral garage.
As a useful note, the vendors have also recently had the roof cleaned.
LIVING ACCOMMODATION
The moment you step through the front door you will appreciate the depth and space that this family home delivers. The hallway is a nice size, providing space for a console table, whilst recently being treated to a stunning oak and glass staircase. The hallway has useful under-stairs storage for coats, shoes and cleaning appliances, plus there is a radiator.
The cloakroom provides a modern suite comprising of a white hi-gloss vanity store cupboard with moulded hand wash basin with chrome mixer tap, conveniently placed ladder radiator to the side for towels and a vanity mirror with shelf. There is also a WC and an opening side opaque window at high-level, beautifully complimented by modern natural-styled tiles to the wall and flooring.
The family kitchen is a great space, and having been recently re-fitted in the last couple of years, delivering a comprehensive range of modern shaker-style navy blue wall and base units with contrasting work-surface. The kitchen offers a built-in Bosch dishwasher, a one and a 1/2 sink and drainer complimented by a mixer flexi-hose tap and Insinkerator food waste disposal. the kitchen provides space for a larder-style fridge/freezer, washing machine and a Range oven sized cooker. There is a fitted extractor hood over the cooker space, and the kitchen is complimented by splash-back tiling around the work-surface areas.
We love the oak window shelving linking the kitchen and dining area, which adds light into the kitchen, as well as a view into the garden through the lounge/diner, and creates a nice talking point when having guests over for dinner, being able to communicate from the kitchen to the dining space when slaving away preparing a gourmet dinner or shouting at the kids to come and collect their meals.
In addition, the kitchen provides good floor space for a family sized breakfast table, perfect for having morning coffee and toast, boasting a bay window to the front to enjoy the view out into the front garden and cul-de-sac, as well as having a central heating radiator set underneath. Furthermore, there is a partially glazed UPVC door to the side elevation which is perfect for accessing the side gate to bring in the shopping from the car. The kitchen also has a further frosted window to the side.
The lounge/diner is a superb size, delivering excellent floor space, and working really well for the modern family. The space is flexible to how you lay out the furniture to separate the living area from a dining area. Either way, there is plenty of floor area for multiple sofas and your media centre, and space on the opposite side for a larger sized dining table.
The living space is lovely and bright with the benefit of multiple windows to the rear elevation providing the garden view, as well as bi-folding doors opening out into the conservatory. The lounge/diner is brightly presented with contrasting carpets, having central heating radiators, and both ceiling and wall lighting.
The conservatory is a great addition to this family home, providing some additional flexible space. Whether as an enjoyable sitting area to take in the garden setting, or for the kids to have as their own area or TV space. The conservatory has large French doors opening out into the re-laid patio, and having those bi-folding doors opening into the lounge space which works really well when entertaining to link the lounge, conservatory and garden.
BEDROOMS & BATHROOM
Welcome upstairs. The landing is neutrally presented to continue the theme from the ground floor with contrasting carpets and beautifully complimented by the oak and glass staircase. The landing gives us access to all four bedrooms, the modern family bathroom as well as a handy storage cupboard. There is access into the loft space with a pull-down ladder where we understand the loft is part-boarded with lighting.
The principal bedroom is a lovely size and a nice surprise when you walk-in. The bedroom is tastefully presented with contrasting carpets, offering generous space for a large bed and accompanying side tables, dressing table, and having the benefit of fitted wardrobes. This bedroom enjoys the benefit of a peaceful garden view through the rear double glazed window, as well as having central heating radiator underneath it.
In recent times, the principal bedroom has had the addition of an en-suite shower with the previous owner, where the current owners have re-sized and re-fitted to modernise and increase the floor space. This modern en-suite has a double size, step-in shower with glass sliding doors, a mains-fed control with both handheld and rainfall attachments.
In addition, a white hi-gloss vanity unit, perfect for storing toiletries, with a free-standing oval modern wash basin with chrome mixer tap, and a WC with dual flush. The en-suite is tastefully tiled with modern contrasting tiling around the wet areas, with easy to maintain flooring, vanity mirror with LED lighting, ceiling spotlights and extractor. In addition, there is an electric ladder radiator.
The second bedroom is set to the front of the house enjoying a peaceful view into the cul-de-sac via a large double glazed window with radiator set underneath. Being east-facing, this bedroom is perfectly set for catching the morning sunrise as your alarm clock. This neutrally presented bedroom delivers generous floor space, with the benefit of a double door built-in wardrobe to maximize the space of the bedroom area.
Bedroom number three is also set to the front of the house boasting a large double glazed window to ensure plenty of that east-facing light. This spacious bedroom works really well for a younger member of the family to have their large bed, wardrobe space, and desk area, as well as having an over stairs storage cupboard. The bedroom is neutrally presented with central heating and ceiling light.
Bedroom number four is still a double sized bedroom also enjoying the view of the rear garden. Boasting a large double glazed window to ensure plenty of natural light with a radiator set underneath. This room is adaptable, whether as a bedroom, a home office, or as the owners use as a dressing room.
The family bathroom is super modern enjoying a nice modern white suite which incorporates a P-shaped bath with central individual hot and cold taps, an electric Mira Sport shower complimented by a fixed glass shower screen.
In addition, the bathroom has a pedestal wash basin with chrome mixer tap, a WC with dual flush, and a contrasting ladder radiator. To keep this room bright, there is an opening double glazed window to the side elevation, LED ceiling spotlights and extractor. To top the room off, the bathroom is beautifully styled with modern light and dark contrasting tiles as well as easy to maintain flooring. There is also a floating wall-mounted cabinet for toiletries.
OUTSIDE SPACE
Drybrooks Close is a really peaceful and popular cul-de-sac. The garden certainly makes the benefit of this, providing a really quiet and relaxing space to enjoy. The rear garden patio has recently been replaced, a deep patio leading out to the lawn, providing a good space for your outdoor dining furniture, sun loungers and of course the obligatory barbecue for entertaining. There’s outdoor power and access on both sides of the property, both having gated access to the front driveway with one side having door into kitchen.
The garden is beautifully tended and mature offering a lawn area which is ideal for the kids to play, but having deep borders to the side, full of plants and shrubs, however, should require a little more garden space, then these are easily pushed back. There is also an outside tap.
GARAGE
The single sized garage is a good size, being home to the recently installed Worcester combination boiler, access to the electric consumer unit, and having power, lighting and up and over vehicle access door as well as water meter.
