Dragons Lane, RH13

Eltons Estate Agents are delighted to present this timeless three-bedroom, semi-detached home located on Dragons Lane in Shipley, West Sussex.

Upon arrival, you'll be greeted by a double driveway with ample space for multiple vehicles and a small car park to the left of the property for visitors, ensuring hassle-free parking.

Originally built in 1903, this property has been beautifully modernised. Entering the property through a solid oak door fitted in 2018 by the current owners, you'll immediately sense the luxury and timeless charm that defines this home. The oak wooden flooring leads you into a spacious lounge/living area, bathed in natural light from large bay windows (with double glazing fitted in 2018) and featuring an elegant wood log burner.

The lounge flows seamlessly into a dining room, enhanced by stylish bi-fold doors that open to the garden, with clever under-stair shelving providing additional storage and decorative space.

The chic kitchen, updated five years ago, boasts a modern island with worktops matching the oak flooring. It features high-end appliances, including a Rangemaster DualFuel cooker/hob, double oven, wine fridge and American style fridge/freezer which is plumbed into the mains water.

The garage has been thoughtfully converted into a utility/office space in 2018, complete with wooden panels, Whiterock walls, a separate electric board, water, water heater and drainage systems, and additional boarded and insulated loft space. The utility room includes underfloor heating, ample storage, and a practical downstairs W/C with convenient outdoor access via a stable door. The oil-heated boiler and water tank, both installed in 2018, are discreetly housed in this space.

Back inside, the stairs adjacent to the kitchen lead to the upper floor. At the top of the stairs is bedroom three, a great size for accommodating family and guests, with a small radiator for added comfort. The fully boarded and insulated loft above the landing offers excellent additional storage.

Next to bedroom three is bedroom two, which features the original fireplace, adding to the home's timeless charm. Along the landing, you'll find the master bedroom, generously sized and inviting which also features the original fireplace. At the end of the landing is the stunning family bathroom, refurbished to an exceptional standard five years ago. It features a chandelier light, walk-in shower with white tiling, solid oak beams, brickwork accents, and an elegant bathtub. The bathroom also includes underfloor heating and a heated towel rail for added luxury.

The beautifully landscaped garden features newly placed main decking area (installed in 2023) from locally sourced wood, providing versatile space for outdoor furniture. The garden itself is spacious and quaint, with natural grass, a patio, areas for plants and greenery and a fishpond. Additionally, there is a large corner shed for outdoor storage.

Additionally, the property features a thoughtfully installed electric car charging point. There is also potential for a two-storey side extension, with planning permission previously applied for.
