THE PROPERTY
Bizarre is a wonderful, all but newly built/extended family home presented to a very high standard throughout with a sharp contemporary finish, Karndean style hard flooring with underfloor heating to the majority of the ground floor accommodation. The property benefits from a modern oil fired boiler and with double glazed windows and triple glazed bi-fold doors throughout and the extra insulation that the current owners added, they have been very happy with the efficiency that they are now afforded. This spacious well-proportioned property also boasts wonderful, vaulted ceilings, and oversized windows flooding the living space with light and there is a good flow to the accommodation which centres around the outstanding large kitchen living/dining room that also opens to the rear garden and provides the countryside views so beneficial beyond the back garden. In brief, the modern front door opens to the hall reception, which has a coat hanging cupboard, and from which there is access to the study/home office (cat 5 wiring throughout the property) at the side, the cloakroom wc and into the stylish Sitting Room. This room benefits from large picture windows to the front, stairs leading up to the first floor, a ‘smart’ electric flame effect fireplace feature and double doors to the snug/TV zone, which leads through again, to the dining area of the kitchen. There is another door from the sitting room to the kitchen, which is luxuriously fitted to a high standard with built in appliances, quartz worksurfaces, gloss finish kitchen units, a breakfast/kitchen island unit and with high-level remote-controlled ceiling light windows. There is good space for a dining table and chairs as well as sofa and coffee table, so the room is ideally suited to modern family living. The spacious Utility boot room gives further storage and convenience with a door out to the rear paved terrace.

Upstairs, there are five good family bedrooms served by two en-suite shower rooms and a stylish family bathroom. The master bedroom also benefits from the added luxury of bi-fold doors opening to the balcony that overlooks the rears garden and the view beyond.

OUTSIDE
Occupying a generous plot, extending to approximately just under half an acre, with the house set well back from the road, the exterior of Bizarre continues its impressive presentation being mainly rendered with a high tech modern flexible resin render that does not need to be painted and uniform grey framed windows throughout. Laid predominantly to lawn, the gardens back onto woodland to the rear and, to the south, offer views to adjacent meadows and the magnificent parish church of All Saints in the distance. Backing onto the woodland and estate of the historic Elizabethan mansion of Coldham Hall, the current owners have marvelled at the wildlife that can be seen enjoying the countryside to the rear.

LOCATION
