Located in the popular village of Langham, Westbank is a charming Edwardian home offering characterful accommodation and including off-road parking, garaging and well-maintained outdoor spaces. This gracious property is delightfully presented by its current owners to showcase its many original period features, including high ceilings, picture & dado rails, sash windows with window boxes and marble fireplaces. At the same time, the home offers flexibility for modern living including a fourth downstairs bedroom (which could be used as a snug or study) and a spacious living dining space that flows from the kitchen to the second reception room (ideal for family life & entertaining).

Ground Floor - A light-filled porch and entrance hall with plenty of room for storage gives access to the property's ground floor accommodation via two further inner halls. The two main reception rooms sit to either side of the entrance hall & stairs at the front of the property. The formal living room to the left with double aspect windows and an open fire. To the right is the dining room, currently used as a sitting/family room, with fireplace (space for a log-burner) and double aspect views of the garden. The connected breakfast kitchen features a range of base & wall units, integrated appliances including inset gas hob, oven & fridge, space for a dishwasher and double aspect windows. A utility room with Belfast sink sits next to the kitchen providing further storage and space for white goods.

Beyond the cloakroom is a good-sized room currently used as a bedroom, with large built-in cupboards. This leads to a light and airy multi-functional conservatory with French doors to the garden. Completing the ground floor accommodation is the large double garage, currently used as workshop and storage space, with integral access from the entrance hall and up & over door to the front.

First Floor - The oak stairway & landing gives access to three large high-ceilinged bedrooms, each with a period cast iron fireplace. Bedrooms one and two sit to the front of the property, both with double aspect views of the garden. Bedroom one has floor-to-ceiling triple wardrobes and Bedroom two features a walk-in dressing room. Bedroom three is at the rear of the property with a view to the side aspect and access to the 'Jack and Jill' family bathroom. The light-filled bathroom with double windows offers a ball & claw bath with shower attachment, and a separate large shower enclosure plus heated towel rails.

Outside - Westbank is approached via the original 'back entrance' off Church Street, whereas the original front of the house faces the Melton Road (now an enclosed garden with its original gate & pathway to the arched 'front door' screened by planting). Two driveways on Church Street, plus an area of lawn in-between, offer off-road parking for multiple vehicles. The first driveway leads to the garage + external charging point, and a single gate that leads to the entrance porch. The second driveway leads to double gates giving access to an inner courtyard, providing a further private area screened from the street by a stone wall.

The extensive outdoor space wraps around the side of the house, with useful storage buildings for garden equipment & bikes, etc. This leads to the large mature garden with patio seating, lawns, pond and greenhouse. The lovely garden features established planting including roses, lavender, rosemary and a grape vine. In addition, there is a detached artist's studio with light & power that would also lend itself to use as a home office or gym.

Solar Panel Information Not provided
The house was fitted with fully-owned solar panels two years ago, which feed power into a battery storage system. When the batteries are fully charged, power is diverted to the hot water system and when the water in the tank is up to temperature any excess electricity is sold back to the grid. The batteries can also be charged overnight with cheap rate electricity from the grid which can then be used during the day. Last year the system generated 4200kWh. Total household usage (including daily charging of 2 hybrid electric cars) was around 6200kWh.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on March 29, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on March 29, 2022

    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
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
