Individual family home with landscaped gardens set on a sought after private road.

Description

Occupying a fabulous location on this prestigious private road, The Dutch House dates back to about 1920, set within its own delightful landscaped gardens. Providing versatile space, the accommodation is generous and well presented, just over 2,500 sq ft in all, ideal for growing families.

On the ground floor the reception hall, with a guest cloakroom and stairs to the first floor, leads to the main reception space which is generous, alongside a study which could also be a further reception room. The sitting room is of good proportions with a feature fireplace and French doors on to the garden and terrace. Internal bi-fold doors, allowing for privacy or a more open plan layout, lead through to a formal dining room with both rooms enjoying lovely garden views. The kitchen/breakfast room forms the heart of the home, with an excellent range of units complemented by generous worktop space and integrated appliances. A dining area provides ideal space for a breakfast table. Doors from the kitchen open on to the conservatory, flooded with natural light and with French doors to the garden. In addition on this floor is a utility room with standalone appliances located just off the kitchen/breakfast room.

On the first floor are four well-proportioned bedrooms all enjoying lovely views over the beautiful rear garden. The principal bedroom benefits from a dressing room and en suite shower room. A guest bedroom also enjoys an en suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms served by a family bathroom.

The Dutch House is set well back from the road with electric gates on to a private driveway with ample parking and leading to two single garages. There is an added benefit of an EV charging point. The secluded rear garden is a real feature of the property, predominately laid to lawn and is beautifully landscaped with an array of specimen trees and mature shrubs. Two large patio areas are perfect for outside entertaining or enjoying a quiet read. Further highlights include an ornamental fish pond with a water feature while a garden summer house/office provides an ideal space for home working.
