Versatile 5-bed detached house, extended and upgraded, with spacious living, utility, 2 en-suites, garden office and parking for 2 cars (EV charger). Close to shops, schools, station and countryside.
This exceptional five-bedroom detached house offers excellent living space for family life and is beautifully presented throughout and finished to a high standard, having been extended and upgraded by the current owners. Well-located to enjoy the best of both worlds with restaurants, shops, schools and a mainline station all withing walking distance, as well as miles of country walks through woodland and farmland.
The entrance hall has useful storage beneath the stairs and leads through to the living areas. The spacious sitting room features a bay window complete with window seat, overlooking the front garden and has a woodburner fitted with bespoke cabinetry providing excellent storage to either side. To the rear of the house, the L-shaped kitchen, dining and family room is the true heart of this home, offering plenty of space for all the family and is a perfect setting for entertaining. The shaker-style kitchen units are complimented by quartz worksurfaces incorporating a breakfast bar, with an integrated Bosch dishwasher and the further kitchen appliances may be available by separate negotiation. This room accommodates a large dining table with ease, together with space for relaxed seating overlooking the garden with bi-fold doors opening to the patio. A separate utility room provides additional storage and space for laundry appliances, with a door to the side path and to the rear garden as well as leading to the cloakroom. Herringbone style flooring flows seamlessly throughout the main living areas, adding a touch of elegance and continuity as well as being highly practical for busy homes.
Upstairs, there is a mezzanine level part-way up the stairs, with a guest bedroom and stylish en-suite shower room with walk-in shower, basin with storage and wc. Continuing to the first floor, the master bedroom is a generous double room with bespoke fitted wardrobes and drawers to one wall, views over the garden and treetops beyond and an en-suite shower room with walk-in shower, basin with storage and wc. There are two further double bedrooms and a large single room, all with fitted wardrobes and the family bathroom is fitted with a bath, separate shower cubicle, basin with useful storage and WC. We understand the loft has been boarded and there is lighting and a pull down ladder to make this a very accessible storage space. This really is a very well balanced family home and even on a gloomy day, the large windows ensure this home is lovely and light and bright throughout.
Outside, there is driveway parking for 2 cars and an EV charger. Steps lead down to the front door, with the front garden being a banked garden behind mature hedging, planted with spring bulbs, shrubs and perennials, creating a lovely backdrop to your sitting room and very private. A side gate leads to the rear garden and to the side of the house, there is a large store room which is currently being used as a space for a home gym. The rear garden feels very private and sheltered, facing north-west and so enjoying the afternoon and evening sunshine. A paved patio is adjacent to the house and leads on to a level lawn with a further terraced area enclosed with picket fencing and featuring a seating area with pergola that is regularly used by the current owners for barbecues and evenings toasting marshmallows around a firepit. Last, but certainly not least, is the superb garden office, tucked away in the far corner of the garden and perfect either for those working from home or looking for a peaceful retreat away from the house. The garden office was installed in 2021 and features underfloor heating, making it comfortable to use throughout the year.
This versatile home is certainly worth a visit to truly appreciate all it has to offer and the space it affords.
