Description

A stunning, individually designed family home presented to an excellent standard and of a distinctive character found within a highly regarded location in a mature, non estate setting worthy of immediate inspection.

Description And Situation - The sale of this particularly handsome and appealing, individually designed, traditional, detached home will be of immediate interest to the more discerning purchaser who appreciates quality.

The property has a distinctive character which is immediately apparent upon entering the welcoming reception hall. It has the benefit of a single storey rear extension creating a well proportioned yet cosy additional living room overlooking the attractive gardens and featuring a wood burning stove, perfect for relaxation and creating extremely useful additional room space that will be appreciated by the younger household.

There is a comfortable lounge with separate but adjoining dining room. The kitchen is well appointed and practical with a separate utility room providing further useful additional storage space.

The property stands on a wider than average plot with particularly attractive rear gardens, landscaped with summer entertaining in mind. There is even a purpose built summer house with equipped bar available by separate negotiation.

A substantially wider than average driveway provides ample off street parking for several vehicles and gives access to the detached garage at the back of the property.
