Description
An exceptional five-bedroom family home, extending to approximately 2,797 sq ft, combining handsome period architecture with a sophisticated contemporary interior.
The property has been thoughtfully updated while retaining a strong sense of its original character. Arranged over three floors, the property offers beautifully balanced accommodation, generous entertaining space and a high degree of flexibility for modern family life.
The ground floor is centred around an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, which is undoubtedly the focal point of the home. A vaulted ceiling and rooflights create a wonderful sense of volume and bring an abundance of natural light into the room, while the contemporary kitchen is centred around a substantial island and opens naturally into the dining and sitting areas. Large sliding doors overlook the garden, creating an attractive connection between the house and its surroundings.
Porcelain tiling extends to the outside, creating a seamless connection with the outdoor entertaining area, which also benefits from an outdoor kitchen with lighting and hot water. A separate utility room and pantry add valuable practical space. The ground floor features Amtico flooring, adding both durability and a contemporary finish.
A generous bay-fronted reception room provides a more formal and intimate alternative to the main living area, retaining a sense of the property's original character. A log burner provides an additional focal point, creating a warm and inviting space in which to relax or entertain.
The first floor provides three well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom, whilst the second floor offers two further bedrooms, a shower room and a versatile gym / bedroom space, which could equally lend itself to use as a home office, studio or additional leisure space. A boarded loft with good head height provides useful additional storage.
The property has been extensively improved, including new windows,roof, gutters and soffits, and is reported to be very well insulated. Heating is provided by two gas boilers, with separate heating zones and underfloor heating to the principal living areas. Both boilers have been recently serviced.
Outside, the property continues to impress, with a generous driveway providing ample parking and access to a substantial garage with excellent storage and workshop potential. The beautifully landscaped rear garden features lawn, established planting, a raised terrace, seating areas and decking adjoining a charming garden bar/outbuilding. Rear access and additional storage further enhance its practicality.
The result is a wonderfully versatile home that successfully balances character, contemporary design and generous proportions, with the open-plan living space, flexible five-bedroom accommodation and excellent ancillary space making it particularly well suited to family life and entertaining.
Services: Main gas, electricity and water. Gas central heating.
