Description

Bentley Road is approached over a gravel drive with parking for numerous cars. A zinc roof vestibule porch with stone flooring leads through into the main hallway with engineered wood flooring and a large picture window. To the right is a well-proportioned dual aspect sitting room with a charming wood burner and bi-folding doors out onto a terrace and into the garden. Towards the rear of the hallway there are double glazed doors which leads through to the exceptional kitchen/breakfast room. There are floor and wall mounted wooden kitchen units, space for an American fridge freezer, stone composite work surfaces, polished concrete flooring, breakfast bar and a Bosch hob with an integrated extractor. This space can easily accommodate for a large dining table and chairs and also boasts two large ovens and a microwave oven with a warming draw beneath. There is a sliding bi-folding door which leads out to the terrace. Accessed from the kitchen is a useful utility room, WC and another dual aspect reception/family room with bi folding doors allowing plenty of light into the room and a stylish freestanding woodburner. There is a further storage room, with an extra area with an electric garage door which could be converted back into a garage if required. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a study that could be an additional small dining room.

Upstairs there are five bedrooms, two of which have en suites. A family bathroom equipped with a freestanding bath by Sottini and an oversized shower head, serves the entirety of the house. The principal bedroom has doors giving access onto a roof terrace with a glazed balcony, as well as a Juliet balcony with panoramic views over the garden, and benefits from a dressing room with an abundance of storage. The tiled en suite bathroom has twin sinks, a freestanding Sottini bath and separate walk-in shower.

The rear garden is south facing and fully enclosed. There is a full width paved terrace and further larger terrace with colourful low level planting and large well maintained lawn beyond. To the east is a raised herb and flower bed constructed of railway sleepers with planting which leads to a paved seating area, designed to take advantage of the late evening sun with a timber pergola over climbing rose. At the back of the plot is a deceptively large detached Scandinavian style timber outbuilding with heated indoor swimming pool (7.35m x 3.05m / 24' x 10'), full size hot tub, sauna, shower and changing areas along with pool pump/filtration store.

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
