About this home

Substantial detached family home on an exceptional corner plot

Description

Occupying a generous corner plot in a sought-after location, this impressive detached family home offers almost 3,000 sq ft of versatile accommodation. A reception hall leads to the principal living spaces, including a bright dual-aspect drawing room with French doors opening onto the garden. A second reception room provides open-plan sitting and dining areas, enhanced by exposed beams, a brick-built fireplace and a wood-panelled ceiling. The adjoining Smallbone kitchen features integrated appliances and space for informal dining, complemented by a useful open utility area. There is also a ground floor shower room.

The first floor comprises five bedrooms, offering flexible accommodation for family living, guests or home working. The principal bedroom benefits from an en suite bathroom, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a family bathroom.

Set on a substantial corner plot, the property enjoys mature gardens wrapping around the front and sides of the house, with lawns, established hedging and colourful planting providing a pleasant degree of privacy. A gated driveway offers ample off-street parking and leads to the integrated garage.

Whilst the existing property has great potential the corner plot offer an excellent opportunity for those looking at a knock down and rebuild subject to planning permission.
