An exceptional home in Street's most prestigious cul-de-sac, offering expansive and versatile accommodation totalling nearly 4000sq.ft, and tucked away on a large secluded c.0.39 acre plot within a short walk of Millfield School. A very rare opportunity offered with no onward chain and obvious potential to further improve!

ACCOMMODATION:

The principal entrance is found 'centre stage' of the impressive frontage to this imposing home, opening to a large reception hall at the heart of the ground floor accommodation, with doors leading off in three directions and stairs rising to the first floor. There are six main living areas on the ground floor, providing a huge degree of flexibility in day to day usage. These comprise a spacious and loosely defined yet sociable Kitchen/diner, adjoining an informal 'snug' or sitting area, offering the potential for a large open plan family room that many buyers seek in today's market. The kitchen itself, whilst offering obvious potential to update and create a contemporary space, features a comprehensive range of fitted cabinetry, wooden worktops and a twin bowl drainer sink. Space is available for a range style cooker and dishwasher, whilst the adjacent utility room is also generous in size, includes additional fitted storage and prep/laundry space, as well as room for additional appliances as required. The formal sitting room is impressive in proportions and offers an elegant gathering point for entertaining or larger families. A coal effect fire within a Neo Georgian style fireplace, offers a wonderful focal point at the centre of the room, with a range of bespoke fitted display shelves and storage on either side. Moving toward the rear of the property, you'll find a comfortable size office/play room with a fitted bench to the bay window, and a stunning orangery style sun room offering a pleasant outlook with access to the rear garden. This area is sure to please buyers who enjoy hosting large gatherings that spill out into the south facing rear gardens. Completing the ground floor, is an exceptionally large and versatile room with neighbouring bathroom, enabling use of this area as a guest bedroom suite, potential part self-contained set-up for dependant relative, or simply a games/cinema room/gym to suit your lifestyle.

From the gallery style first floor landing, the impressive specifications continue, with four very spacious double bedrooms all enjoying direct access to their own private ensuite bath or shower rooms, and three of these including their own dressing rooms. An additional family bathroom serves the two further bedrooms on this floor, which are a comfortable size double and a good single room, although either of these could also provide secondary office space as required.
