Description

In addition is high quality accommodation of an extremely generous kitchen/living room with bi-folding doors, large lounge, study, utility room and WC . Whilst upstairs are four double bedrooms, including principal bedroom with dressing room and ensuite, guest bedroom with en-suite and a large family bathroom. Viewing is imperative to really appreciate what this property offers.

Accommodation
Immediately the front door opens into the bright and airy entrance hall with oak flooring and oak doors throughout, you are drawn to the garden view through the impressive floor to ceiling window at the other end of the hall to the rear. En route, you will find the door to the spacious lounge with its picture window to the front and stone fireplace with inset Dimplex Fire. On the other side of the hall is the study with a built-in double wardrobe for files, desk and shelving. To the rear of the property is the stunning kitchen/living/dining space with oak flooring, a full height glazed window and door to the side and bi-folding doors across the entire rear, bringing the outside in. The quality kitchen is fitted with a range of white gloss fronted floor units and central island, all with granite work tops and benefitting from integrated appliance including dishwasher, larder fridge, eye level double oven and electric hob. Wall cupboards are not necessary as there is a large walk-in shelved pantry which leads to a further door and cupboard housing the gas boiler and pressurised hot water tank. Opposite is a comprehensively fitted utility room with a range of white gloss fronted wall and floor units, a tiled floor, space for laundry appliances and a freezer with a window and glazed door to the garden. Lastly on the ground floor is the part-tiled WC with white suite of vanity basin unit and WC, cloaks cupboard and understairs storage cupboard.
Stairs from the hall arrive on a spacious landing where there are doors to all four bedrooms and the family bathroom. The generous principal bedroom with dual aspect windows overlooking the gardens boasts an adjoining dressing room with built in shelves and hanging rails and a fully tiled en-suite shower room with towel radiator, large walk in shower and a range of units housing the wash basin and WC. The guest bedroom is to the front of the property with a picture window and fully tiled ensuite shower room with double width walk in shower, WC, pedestal basin and towel radiator. The generous third bedroom benefits from a triple door built in wardrobe to one wall and front aspect, whilst bedroom four, still a double overlooks the rear garden. Last but not least is the fully tiled family bathroom with a white suite comprising bath with mixer tap shower over, WC, pedestal wash basin and towel radiator. From here is access to the part boarded loft via a hatch with pull down wooden steps.

Outside
To the rear of the house is a fantastic and unexpectedly large L shaped beautifully landscaped garden with a patio to the immediate rear of the house from which the lawn with pond and shrub borders leads to an original apple tree where the garden really opens out and features a range of ornamental trees and shrubs including magnolia, bay, pittosporum and silver birch to mention a few. In addition to the hidden wooden and metal framed sheds in the corner, there is a large workshop with shelving, work bench, light and many power points and a double garage with electric doors onto a stoned parking area offering ample space for several vehicles. This area is accessed via Leigh Road and a separate gate. The neighbouring property also has a right of access to their garages over this entrance. Finally, to the front of the property, is a brick paved parking area with well stocked flower borders to three sides and enclosed by a stone wall.
