5 bedroom detached house for sale

Situated in the highly regarded Parkfield area of Garden Farm estate, this five-bedroom detached house offers exceptional living space, and the secluded cul de sac position and large gardens make it an ideal forever home for family buyers. It occupies a lovely position, overlooking the attractive Hermitage Estate grounds to the front. The house has undergone extensive renovation and improvement, and a stunning extension has created a superb 20ft kitchen/dining room to the rear, with a glass lantern roof and full-width folding doors to the garden bringing in lots of natural light. The room sizes are very impressive throughout and must be seen to be fully appreciated. The central lobby opens to the entrance hall with a cloakroom/wc. The living room at the front opens to the former dining room, now utilised as an additional sitting/family room, with double doors opening to the back garden. The kitchen and dining room include contemporary high gloss units, a central island, marble work surfaces, and a host of integrated appliances. The large 10ft utility room and 15ft double garage are accessed from the kitchen. The spacious first floor is equally impressive. There are four double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes and the fifth bedroom, with its pleasant open aspect, is an ideal home office. The main bedroom includes a modern refitted en suite shower room/wc and the stylish refitted family bathroom features a free-standing oval bath and a large shower enclosure. To the front, the double-width resin drive provides off-street parking and creates an attractive appearance. The double garage includes a remote-controlled roller door and an electric car charging point. The improved specification includes gas central heating with a recent replacement Worcester combination boiler, underfloor heating to the extensive kitchen/dining room, solar energy, uPVC double glazing, and oak internal doors. Homes in this much sought-after location are rarely available and early viewing is strongly recommended.
