5 bedroom detached house

7 Amherst Place
Located in a prominent location on Amherst Place with views across open amenity space, 7 Amherst Place is a substantial family home appointed to the highest of standards. Having recently been subject to a programme of cosmetic refurbishment, the house represents a turnkey opportunity with flexible and spacious accommodation.

Entered via a pretty pathway from the drive, the front door opens to a stunning octagonal entrance hallway with feature oak staircase. The entrance hall provides access to all living accommodation. A doorway leads off to the vast sitting room which offers double doors to the rear terrace, whilst a living flame gas fire offers a delightful focal point. Adjacent to the sitting room is the snug / study which is an excellent size and includes a large bay window allowing the room to be flooded with light. On the opposite side of the hallway is the half-panelled dining room, which again offers a large bay window. Accessible via both the dining room and entrance hall is the contemporary kitchen breakfast room. A two-tone range of wall and floor cabinetry is set under a Unistone work surface, whilst a matching central island provides additional storage as well as a useful breakfast bar. A range of integrated Neff and AEG appliances includes microwave, grill / oven, full size oven, hob with extractor, fridge freezer, wine cooler and dishwasher. The kitchen breakfast room benefits from a large seating area with double doors to the garden. Completing the ground floor is a guest WC and a handy utility room with side door to the garden.

The oak staircase rises and splits left and right to lead to the galleried landing. The principal suite is both spacious and filled with natural light, and offers a dressing area with fitted wardrobes and en suite bathroom with separate shower. There are two guest bedrooms with fitted wardrobes which share a Jack and Jill bathroom, as well as two further bedrooms. A family bathroom with separate shower completes the first floor accommodation.

Garden
An immaculate and landscaped front garden provides a large driveway with parking for numerous vehicles and leads to the double garage which has power and light. A gate to the side of the garage leads to the landscaped west facing garden which includes a spacious terrace.

Planning Permission
The property benefits from planning permission for an orangery extension off the kitchen and to enlarge the current double garage. Permission was granted on appeal APP/M3455/D/20/3264374. Permission lapses in September 2023.
