Stylish and beautifully presented semi-detached contemporary town house overlooking the village green in the centre of a popular development.

Description

Situated in a prime location on a quiet no-through road, overlooking the Green in the popular Woodgate development, close to the village shop and café, Songhurst Gardens is a striking and impressive contemporary semi-detached townhouse built by Thakeham Homes and completed in 2022. The house offers stylish and versatile accommodation arranged over three floors, with a roof terrace and stunning vaulted open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room on the top floor, affording some wonderful far-reaching views. Beautifully presented throughout, the house is Scandi inspired, with bursts of colour and a mixture of natural carpet and wood-effect luxury flooring adding warmth and character; further points of note include contemporary bathroom suites with black fittings, anthracite-coloured double glazed windows, some fitted with elegant plantation shutters.

The front door opens to an entrance hall, off which lies a ground floor bedroom suite, a reception room with bi-fold doors opening to the garden, a cloakroom, and a utility room with space for laundry appliances and a door opening to the integral garage.

The well-proportioned bedrooms, together with the family bathroom, are arranged over the first floor, lying off a light and bright gallery landing. The principal bedroom lies to the front of the house, and has a dressing room with fitted storage, as well as an en suite bathroom with a suite including a bath and separate walk-in shower. Bedroom three has French doors opening to a glazed Juliet balcony overlooking the Green, and could be used as a formal reception room.

The open-plan kitchen, dining and reception room comprises the majority of the second floor, a stunning vaulted space ideal for day-to-day family life, flooded with natural light by way of a large window rising into the ceiling apex, and three electronically-operated skylights. French doors open to a balcony to the front of the house and a wide expanse of bi-fold doors lead on to a spacious and private roof terrace.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of white and grey cabinets and a central island, with marbled quartz worktops and a range of integrated appliances; it is served by a useful walk-in pantry with shelving and space for further appliances, and a hatch opening to a small loft space housing fans for efficient air circulation. A separate cloakroom completes the second floor.

Outside
To the front of the house is a landscaped garden and a block paved driveway with an EV charging point, ahead of the integral single garage, which has an up and over door to the front and a second, electric roller door to the rear, allowing easy access to the rear garden.

The part-walled rear garden has been recently landscaped, to include a large terrace with beautiful patterned tiles, and an area of lawn edged by wood-chipped borders planted with young shrubs.
