NO CHAIN - No chain - A delightful detached Victorian house, set in a private and sunny walled garden. Located just off the village green in the much sought after village of Rushlake Green. Well proportioned rooms with many attractive period features (1526 ft.²/141 m² plus garage). Potential to extend if required. The house is set behind old stone and brick walls, with a classic portico and Victorian door leading into the entrance hall. The stairs rise with a runner carpet, brass stair rods and an intricately carved oak banister, extending to a galleried landing. Below is a storage cupboard behind oak panelling. Tiled floors extend through to a Cloakroom with space for hanging outdoor garments, w.c and wash basin set in a marble surround.
The Drawing Room is delightful. The sash windows to the front enjoy the south facing sun making the room very bright. At one end is a large open fireplace, deeply set with a carved wooden surround. The Study has two windows to the rear and various built-in cupboards. It opens through to the Kitchen which has a substantial range of built-in cupboards and extensive work surfaces, incorporated into which is a double Miele oven and grill, induction hob, extractor and microwave. There is also an integral fridge and freezer, bin storage and dishwasher. A deep Butler sink with window above looks out to the garden and there is a small but useful pop-up table. Off the Kitchen is the Conservatory, used as the Dining Room as it has lovely views over the garden. It has underfloor heating and an electric roof so can be used comfortably all year round.
ON THE FIRST FLOOR: The landing is very large with a reading area by the window overlooking the front of the house and a study space with a window to the rear. The third bedroom has a carved oak wall and door from the landing. It is a double room with a window facing South. The Guest Room is a good sized double with a range of built-in wardrobes and South facing windows. The Guest Bathroom has a bath, with overhead shower, wash basin and w.c., Victorian radiator, towel rail, and a built-in cupboard housing the washing machine and tumble dryer. The Main Bedroom also has a range of built-in wardrobes and there are further wardrobes in the en-suite shower room, which is large enough to act as a dressing room. There is a lovely old marble wash basin set into a carved oak unit. From the hallway is a large access via a pull down ladder,to an ATTIC ROOM fully boarded with a window. A wrought iron gate, supported by old brick pillars, provides the entrance to the property. This forms part of a wall which extends along the whole of the South side of the garden to a driveway and the single garage. There is parking for two cars and the garage has power and light. A stonewall runs along the north easterly boundary ensuring total privacy for this delightful garden. Much time has clearly been spent planting with specimen trees, flowering shrubs, an abundance of flowering borders and a rose covered pergola. At the far end of the garden is a Summerhouse with a patio enjoying the afternoon sun. There is also a greenhouse.
