Property description

A modern five bedroom, three bathroom detached property with landscaped gardens, driveway parking and a detached nearly 19ft. garage, set back from a private, no through road.

The property was originally built by Prowting Homes in the 1990s and has been refurbished and improved by the vendors, and has approximately 2,544 sq. ft. of accommodation. The ground floor has a sitting room and study, an open plan kitchen/dining/family room which is the hub of the house and has an adjoining utility room, and a cloakroom. On the first floor the galleried landing gives access to the five bedrooms and a family shower room. The principal and guest bedrooms both have fitted wardrobes and an en suite fitted with contemporary style sanitaryware. The landing has access to the roof space and two cupboards, one housing the pressurised hot water cylinder. The gardens have been professionally landscaped and include an extensive resin driveway providing parking and access to the detached double garage which is entered by a remotely operated roller door and has power connected, a fully boarded roof space, a range of fitted storage cupboards and a sink unit.

Entrance Hall and Reception Rooms

The entrance hall has exposed Karndean wood effect flooring which continues into the kitchen/dining/family room. A centrally positioned staircase provides access to the first floor with custom built integrated storage beneath. The dual aspect sitting room has a central inglenook style fireplace housing a Living Flame gas fire with a raised hearth, and seating and shelving set either side. A feature bay window overlooks the front and glazed double doors open to the outdoor entertaining area at the rear. The study is fitted in a custom range of high gloss fronted office furniture and has a bay window to the front.

The family area has glazed double doors to the rear garden and the kitchen has a part glazed door in a bay at the side. The utility room has similar units in a plum colour, work surfaces incorporating a sink, space and plumbing for appliances and a cupboard housing the gas fired boiler.
