*WATCH OUR TOUR VIDEO*

A handsome and substantial 1920s semi detached residence, offering generously proportioned accommodation extending to approximately 2,474 sq ft occupying an enviable 0.27 acres. The property has been thoughtfully and sympathetically extended and enhanced, creating a superb family home that combines elegant period character with high-quality contemporary finishes. High ceilings, feature bay windows and original detailing are complemented by modern interventions, including a bespoke oak kitchen and a blend of uPVC and oak-framed glazing.

The property is approached via electrically operated gates, opening onto an extensive block-paved driveway which provides ample off-road parking for several vehicles and enhances both privacy and security. The sense of space continues internally, where an impressive and welcoming reception hallway, complete with box bay window and wooden flooring, sets the tone for the accommodation beyond. The principal reception room is a superb living space extending to approximately 24’1, featuring a striking bay window and wooden flooring, and opening via double doors into a particularly bright and spacious dining room. This impressive room benefits from vaulted ceilings with Velux roof lights and French doors opening onto the garden, along with a stable door providing access to the side garden. Tiled flooring flows seamlessly through into the adjoining kitchen, reinforcing the sense of open, sociable living. The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of bespoke oak units, complemented by quartz work surfaces and a central island, and is equipped with a range cooker, integrated fridge and freezer, and a wine cooler. From the dining area, a contemporary glazed link with bi folding doors leads through to a further family room, which in turn enjoys French doors opening onto the patio, providing an exceptional arrangement of interconnected living spaces ideally suited to modern family life and entertaining. A practical utility room lies off the kitchen, providing space for laundry appliances and access to a downstairs WC.

To the first floor, there are four well-proportioned bedrooms, together with a fifth room which is ideally suited for use as a nursery or home office. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, benefiting from fitted wardrobes and a stylish dual-aspect en suite shower room. Bedrooms two and three also enjoy dual aspects, while the remaining bedrooms overlook the garden. The family bathroom is beautifully appointed, featuring a freestanding bath set within a bay window, twin wash basins, a separate shower enclosure, and contemporary tiling.

Externally, the property boasts a generous and private garden. An extensive patio immediately to the rear of the house provides an excellent space for outdoor dining and entertaining, beyond which the garden extends into a long lawn bordered by established hedging and mature trees, offering a high degree of privacy. A further decking area creates an additional seating space, allowing for distinct areas of relaxation and entertaining throughout the garden.

The result is a beautifully balanced home of considerable character and scale, offering elegant period proportions alongside thoughtfully designed contemporary living spaces, set within generous grounds in a highly desirable setting.
