This superb five-bedroom detached home occupies a generous plot in the popular village of Winford. One of just a pair of executive-style homes, the property offers exceptional potential for a buyer to create their own dream home. Approached via a gently sloping driveway, there is a beautifully landscaped front garden which affords the property great privacy from the lane. There is plenty of off-street parking and access to a large double garage.
Entering the house, the vendors have transformed the reception hallway into a fantastic sociable meeting point with a small bar area, a handy ground floor cloakroom, and stairs rising to the first floor. To the right of the hallway lies a spacious dual-aspect sitting room with a handsome feature fireplace. Beyond the sitting room is a good-sized conservatory that looks out over the superb rear garden. The conservatory can also be accessed from the utility room.
To the left of the hallway is the kitchen/dining room. Formerly two separate rooms, the current owners have combined the spaces to create a lovely family area to enjoy mealtimes together. The kitchen area is fitted with a range of traditional-style wall and base units with space for a range-style cooker, glazed display cabinets, a breakfast bar, and a tiled floor which runs the entire depth of the kitchen/dining room. From here, a door leads through to a useful utility room with plumbing for white goods and a door to the conservatory.
Moving on to the first floor, you will find five bedrooms and two bathrooms. The master bedroom has a good-sized en-suite bathroom and a generous amount of fitted wardrobes. Bedroom five sits above the garage and can be accessed via a second staircase which leads down to the garage, or from an internal door from the master bedroom. The three further bedrooms share use of the family bathroom.
Outside, the property enjoys a fantastic garden which offers excellent privacy. A large sun terrace provides the perfect space for al-fresco dining and summer barbecues, and a sweeping lawn stretches away from the house with a pretty rockery, several fruit trees, and a number of mature trees to the boundary. Within the garden is a summer house and shed, along with a pedestrian door to the back of the garage and side access on both sides of the house.
The property offers scope for modernisation and provides a great footprint with a superb garden.
