The exterior is protected with painted render under a hipped, tiled roof and has a north/south axis and tall double glazed windows that capture the view perfectly. The kitchen/diner and sitting room are all triple aspect and consequently are filled with natural light throughout the day. To supplement this the conservatory with its fringing sundeck faces west with sweeping views from south through to north so that even in the depths of winter the views can be appreciated whatever the time of day. The sitting room, snug and conservatory are connected via glazed concertina doors creating a larger entertainment space when needed. The kitchen/diner is open plan and creates a wonderful large space with separate seating and dining areas. The kitchen is fully fitted with cream and blue coloured units under timber and black granite work surfaces, double butler's sink and a range cooker inset in a range fireplace. On the far side of the centrally positioned hall is a wing incorporating three double bedrooms and two shower rooms, one of which is en suite.
The upper floor is contained within the roof space and, apart from extensive under eaves storage and the landing incorporating a study area, is given over to the principal bedroom suite, which has an east-facing balcony and a walk-through dressing room to its own en suite bathroom.
Netherton Ridges sits centrally within its grounds, which are enclosed by mature hedging and amount to just under three quarters of an acre. It is approached off the passing lane via a short, gravelled driveway that leads to a large turning circle around a lozenge-shaped lawn with a mulberry tree. On one side of the turning circle is a good-sized, tandem double garage, beside which is the garden store and a polytunnel.
As the property is positioned at the top of the ridge, the garden is mostly level and only slopes gently away from the house behind it. This drop in ground level allowed the creation of an undercroft for storage beneath the conservatory. The garden is designed to be easily maintained and consists of lawn studded with a mix of broadleaf and evergreen specimen trees along with several fruit trees.
Supplemented by the boundary hedge plus additional lengths of hedge within the garden, the trees provide plenty of shelter to the house during inclement, stormy weather. In all the garden extends to about 0.69 acre (0.28 hectare).
