The Detail
A spacious reception hallway creates an impressive first impression, featuring a striking return staircase and generous proportions that immediately reflect the scale of the accommodation throughout. Double doors lead through to the principal reception rooms, creating an excellent flow for both family life and entertaining. A contemporary guest cloakroom is positioned off the hallway and is fitted with quality tiling, vanity storage and WC facilities.
To the front elevation, the elegant dining room is enhanced by a large bay window, whilst the substantial lounge provides a welcoming living space centred around a feature living flame fireplace. French doors connect directly to the gardens, allowing the outdoor space to become a natural extension of the home during the warmer months. A versatile additional reception room offers excellent flexibility as a study, family room or guest bedroom.
Undoubtedly the centrepiece of the property is the beautifully appointed kitchen family room. Fitted with an extensive range of shaker-style units, granite work surfaces, range cooker, integrated microwave, wine cooler and space for an American-style fridge freezer, it offers both style and practicality. The family area enjoys lovely views across the gardens and provides an excellent space for everyday living and entertaining. Porcelain tiled flooring continues into the utility room, which provides additional storage, laundry facilities and direct access to the garden.
A separate landing area positioned between the ground and first floors creates an attractive additional living space, currently offering an ideal spot for a reading corner, music area or quiet retreat away from the main reception rooms.
The first-floor accommodation is centred around a generous galleried landing. The principal bedroom is an impressive room, enjoying a Juliet balcony overlooking the gardens and benefiting from its own ensuite bathroom. A further guest bedroom features a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite facilities, whilst two additional double bedrooms are served by a superbly appointed family bathroom.
The family bathroom is a particular highlight of the home, having been thoughtfully refitted with a high-quality Duravit suite. Features include a deep freestanding bath, large walk-in shower with concealed fittings and rainfall shower head, contemporary vanity unit with storage, concealed WC, LED feature lighting and an illuminated LED bathroom cabinet, creating a luxurious and contemporary finish.
The second floor provides two further double bedrooms, both benefiting from Velux windows and excellent proportions. These rooms offer flexibility for a variety of uses including guest accommodation, home working space, hobbies or study areas. A further shower room serves this floor, making it ideal for larger families or visiting guests.
Externally, the property is surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens that have been thoughtfully landscaped and carefully cared for. Extensive lawns are complemented by mature planting, fruit trees, vegetable beds, raised sleeper borders and a variety of seating areas positioned throughout the garden. A circular patio provides an excellent entertaining space for summer gatherings and barbecues, whilst a side patio captures the morning sun and offers the perfect setting for a morning coffee. The gardens provide a wonderful sense of privacy and maturity rarely found so close to the city centre.
