About this home

Occupying a generous and beautifully established plot within the highly regarded Bamford area, this distinctive three-bedroom detached family home offers an impressive combination of space, versatility and individuality. Extending to approximately 1,442 sq. ft. (133.9 sq. metres) across three levels, the property provides superb family accommodation complemented by extensive gardens, off-road parking, a garage/study and dedicated home gym.

Set back from War Office Road behind a substantial driveway and mature landscaped frontage, the property immediately stands out. The gardens are a particularly attractive feature, with established lawns, colourful planting, mature trees and shrubs creating an impressive setting around the house. The elevated position and substantial plot give the home a real sense of space rarely found with more modern developments. Internally, the accommodation has been thoughtfully arranged to provide excellent flexibility. The ground floor opens through a welcoming entrance porch and hallway into a spacious lounge and dining area, creating an excellent everyday family and entertaining space with plenty of natural light. At the heart of the home is the impressive breakfast kitchen, a substantial contemporary space measuring approximately 5.35m x 5.21m at its maximum points. Finished with an extensive range of modern fitted units, integrated appliances, generous work surfaces and a central breakfast bar, the kitchen provides ample room for informal dining and seating. Extensive glazing and doors connect the room beautifully with the outside space, making this a particularly bright and sociable part of the property. Also positioned on the ground floor is bedroom three, offering valuable flexibility for those requiring a guest bedroom, home office or additional reception room, while a separate WC completes this level. The first floor provides two further well-proportioned double bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from excellent proportions and useful eaves storage, while bedroom two provides another comfortable double room. A modern family bathroom serves the first-floor accommodation. Adding considerably to the versatility of the house is the lower ground floor, which provides approximately 262 sq. ft. of additional accommodation. Here, the garage has been utilised to provide a study/garage area, alongside a separate home gym – ideal for buyers working from home, fitness enthusiasts or those simply requiring additional usable space away from the main living accommodation. Externally, the property truly comes into its own. The house sits within a substantial, mature plot, with attractive landscaped gardens wrapping around the property. Established lawns, stone terraces, mature borders, trees and colourful planting combine to create a wonderful outdoor environment with several areas for sitting, entertaining and enjoying the garden. A generous driveway provides excellent off-road parking and access to the garage.
