5 bedroom detached house for sale

A substantial, contemporary family house in a wonderful central location just a few hundred metres from the train station, extended and completely remodelled over the past few years and presented in superb order throughout.

Glebelands Road is a popular and sought after cul-de-sac which lies in a central position close to all the town’s amenities. No 84 was completely remodelled and extended about 5 years ago and boasts a superb internal family layout with four reception rooms including a huge open-plan kitchen dining living space with bi-fold doors to the rear garden.

An entrance lobby provides cloakroom facilities, and a glazed inner door gives access to the entrance hall, a glass and oak staircase, downstairs WC and a good sized boot room. A further door leads into the half garage providing useful storage.

There is a front facing formal lounge with wood burning stove, an excellent second sitting room currently used as a study with a large window overlooking the side, and this room links into a garden room with glass roof lantern and french doors out to a side terrace.

The main focal point of the house is a huge open-plan kitchen dining living room with two sets of large bi-fold doors that fold fully back and access the courtyard garden. This room is large enough for a huge sofa and dining table and has a range of contemporary fitted kitchen cabinets with built-in appliances and a large central island with fitted breakfast bar. A useful room lies to the side with a side access door.

At first floor level there are five bedrooms although the house is currently configured as four, because the owner enjoys the use of one of the bedrooms as a dressing room. This current principal bedroom arrangement includes a large bedroom area, substantial fitted dressing room (former bedroom) and a central en suite shower room which would serve as a Jack-and-Jill bathroom if the suite was separated as two bedrooms.

The guest bedroom or second main bedroom provides a large bedroom area, range of fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room, and the two further bedrooms - one with built-in wardrobe - overlook the front and share a good sized family bathroom with shower over the bath.

Externally, there is off-road parking for several cars on a tarmac driveway, a lawned front and side garden, and the rear garden is hard landscaped with a composite decking area, high level seating table and a covered outdoor dining space for al fresco dining in inclement weather. A large Indian stone patio creates interest and several areas for seating.

During the refurbishment works we understand there were various electrical infrastructure changes included, including wiring for Bang & Olufsen on the ground floor, several computer wifi networks and CAT6 in various areas throughout the house, wired back to a central server in the ground floor study.
