APPROACH
This family home benefits from a generous driveway to the front being block paved with a low-level wall to the front which breaks the property off nicely from the pavement edge, and having the benefit of a storm porch to lead you to the front door as well as access into the garage, and the gate to the side.
LIVING ACCOMMODATION
Welcome inside. Step through the UPVC partially glazed front door into the hallway, you will immediately sense the traditional style, particularly with the gorgeous parquet flooring which welcomes you inside the home. The hall is a nice size, being neutrally presented with stairs rising up to the bedrooms, family bathroom and separate WC. There is a handy shelf to the side, and connectivity points for telephones and internet, as well as a large central heating radiator. The hallway gives access into the lounge/diner, around the corner to the kitchen, and having the benefit of an under-stairs storage.
The main lounge/diner is a lovely size, those tall ceilings certainly gives a sense of space, while boasting a large bay window to the front, allowing plenty of natural light to flow through particularly with the bay and French doors leading out into the rear garden. This is a lovely sunny room, plenty of natural light, and being neutrally presented keeping it light. The room has contrasting laminate wood flooring, central heating, and blinds within the bay.
To the front of the room is the dining section, which also has a feature wall-mounted electric fire, with central heating and ceiling light, whilst to the rear is the living area, which provides plenty of floor space for multiple sofas, media centre and the French doors leading out to the garden. There is a further central heating radiator within the living area, as well as wall and ceiling lighting. This is a family room, and works particularly well when entertaining especially being able to open the doors and take the party into the garden.
The kitchen is set to the rear of the house, enjoying the garden view, providing a compliment of wall and base units, with good work-surface area with tiling around, providing space for your own Range cooker and American sized fridge/freezer. The kitchen has a one and a half sink and drainer with mixer tap, as well as an integrated dishwasher.
The kitchen has a door to the side to lead out to the rear garden, as well as an internal door which opens into the garage.
BEDROOMS & BATHROOM
Welcome upstairs. The upstairs bedroom accommodation is certainly no disappointment, offering excellent spaced bedrooms, and a nice family bathroom with separate WC. The landing is nicely presented, with contrasting balustrade staircase, traditional skirting boards and door frames, as well as access with a ladder into the loft space. The hardwood doors really set this space off, to add a touch of modern to a traditional home. There’s also an alarm control panel although Ginger have not tested the services.
Bedroom number one is set to the front of the house, a really spacious bedroom, providing plenty of floor space for a large bed, accompanying side tables and excellent wall space for larger wardrobes. There’s a perfect wall on the chimney breast for a television, and the large double glazed bay window certainly ensures plenty of natural lighting into the space, as well as giving a little extra floor space. The bedroom has a central heating and ceiling light.
The second bedroom is set to the rear of the house, a super generous space, with the tall ceilings giving a further sense of room, as well as providing excellent floor space for larger bedroom furniture, wardrobes and chest of drawers. We particularly like the bay window which gives some extra floor space, as well as providing a delightful view into the rear garden. The bedroom also offers central heating, double glazing and ceiling lighting.
The third bedroom is a nice sized double, set to the front of the house with a view into the driveway, and delivering plenty of floor space for a double bed, and additional furniture. The bedroom is neutrally presented with contrasting walls and carpets, as well as central heating and wall lighting.
The fourth bedroom is positioned at the rear house, and for the smallest bedroom it still delivers excellent dimensions, and would work as a double bedroom really easily. We particularly love the view of the garden, the neutral presentation, as well as the room having central heating.
The family bathroom is nicely presented, with natural style tiling around the walls and floors, having a feature cabinet vanity unit, providing excellent storage for toiletries, towels and linen, a vanity mirror and a large wash basin with a mixer tap. The bath has a central tap and benefits from a mains-fed shower with complimentary shower screen. There’s also a WC, ladder radiator, and double glazed frosted window to the front elevation.
In addition to the family bathroom, there is a separate toilet, which works well in a family home particular for the morning rush-hour. Offering a WC with dual flush, and a large opening frosted window to the side elevation.
OUTSIDE SPACES
As you exit from the kitchen, along the side passageway, there is the benefit of an outside WC which is particularly handy when entertaining outside, or for a quick stop for the kids. Providing a toilet with a wall-mounted hand wash basin with tap, a window to the rear elevation and light.
The rear garden is a real asset to this family home and once outside is nice and peaceful, and not being overlooked from the rear. There is a generous sized patio which is perfect for your outdoor dining furniture and barbecue, particularly with the French doors linking the living room to the garden. In addition to the patio, there is a large lawn area with border to the side, and a further patio to the rear. There is a shed to the side of the outbuilding, and the passageway takes you back to the front driveway.
GARDEN BUILDING/ENTERTAINMENT ROOM
The owners built a garden/entertainment room to the rear of the garden which is a great space, whether for the teenagers to have their own space, a large home office should you work from home, or as the current owner has used it for is a relaxing entertaining space. As you will see, it’s great for some sofas, your large television on the wall to catch a movie, and your gaming/entertaining system. The space is neutrally presented, having twin windows to the front and central partially glazed door, laminate flooring, ceiling spotlight, and neutrally presented.
GARAGE
The property benefits from an integrated single sized garage which has an up and over door to the front, window to the side, side door and internal door into the kitchen. As you can see with the current owners use the space at its best with plumbing for the washing machine and dryer, space for a traditional fridge/freezer, and plenty of storage particularly for a family home. The garage is also home to the Baxi boiler, consumer unit, and has power and lighting.
