THE PROPERTY This impressive Tudor-style, six-bedroom detached house boasts a high-quality bespoke build and offers versatile accommodation spanning three floors, perfect for a growing or multigenerational family.

Upon entering, you are welcomed by a spacious reception hall that leads to two elegant reception rooms. The front-facing lounge and the double aspect dining room are connected by double doors, allowing for both open-plan entertaining and more intimate gatherings. The well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of Oak shaker style units, features integrated appliances to include a dishwasher, American style fridge/freezer, and Rangemaster, and is finished with granite worktops and limestone tiled flooring. French doors open directly to the expansive garden, making this space perfect for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. The ground floor also includes a convenient downstairs cloakroom with a WC and basin, as well as a separate utility room that provides side access and connects to the integral garage.

Rising to the first floor, you are greeted by an impressive, arched leaded light picture window, flooding the landing with natural light. The first-floor hosts four well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which benefit from ensuite shower rooms with underfloor heating, which the further three bathrooms also benefit from. The remaining two bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, complete with a bath, shower, WC, and basin. The second floor offers additional versatile accommodation, with two generously sized bedrooms currently used as a study and a lounge, providing options for a home office, guest rooms, or a teenage retreat. This floor is also serviced by bathroom.

Outside, the rear garden is a true highlight, extending to approximately 127ft and laid to a level lawn, ideal for children to play or for hosting garden parties. The garden is bordered by well-maintained hedges and mature trees, ensuring privacy and a sense of tranquillity. A large shed at the rear provides ample storage space. Double wrought electric iron gates with intercom feature provides access to a large sweeping driveway, with off street parking for multiple vehicles.
Other benefits include concrete floors to the ground and first floor enforcing further insolation to the property.
