Description
Set back from the road behind a front garden, sits this attractive house on a very generous plot.
The spacious accommodation is arranged over two floors with superb reception rooms, ideal for both formal entertaining and family living. For many years the house has been a superb family home and would now benefit from modernisation with the potential to be extended, subject to the usual permissions.
The property is entered through a spacious traditional hallway which leads onto the sitting room which features a bay window leading onto the sizeable dining room with views over the garden, an ideal space for family time or entertaining. The well equipped kitchen-breakfast room benefits from a walk-in pantry.
Arranged over the first floor is the principal bedroom with an outlook over the rear garden with fitted wardrobes and en suite shower room. There are three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom with a separate w.c. which completes the accommodation.
Externally, the garden offers a good degree of privacy mainly laid to lawn. There is an opportunity to create several seating areas within this wonderful space. The drive to the front provides ample off street parking and leads to the double garage.
