5 bedroom house for sale

Overview

THE PROPERTY This very nicely presented home was built as a four-bedroom house in 2006, and has been greatly improved since then with extensions, a remodelling of its layout and numerous updates to the fittings and decor. The result is a substantial family home, presented in superb order, with flexible accommodation, for multi-generational families. A nicely appointed kitchen breakfast room has quartz surfaces, an island/breakfast bar, an American style fridge/freezer, a Neff double oven, a microwave, a gas hob and a dishwasher; it opens directly into an orangery/garden room extension (with bi-fold doors, a roof lantern and air conditioning) which is currently in use as a second sitting room, but which could also function well as a dining space. Further ground floor accommodation includes a formal dining room, a sitting room with a gas fire, a WC and a utility room which opens directly into the annex lobby. THE ANNEX An attached annex was created by converting part of the original garage and by extending into the rear garden. It is a brilliant addition which is ideal for grannies or grown-up children and could function fully independently if required, by reinstating a stud wall between the lobby and the utility room. The accommodation includes a kitchen/living room with French doors to the garden; this is fitted with an oven, a microwave, a dishwasher, an electric hob, an extractor, and a fridge freezer. There is also a double bedroom with air-conditioning and an en-suite wet room. There are four double bedrooms on the first floor, with two having substantial en-suites with walk-in cubicle showers.
